Chris Dorch on Tyndall filling this recruiting class...

I realize that. But a little investigating shows that in the last 9 years Tyndall has managed to recruit 3 2star players and actually has never recruited a 3 star player in his entire life. But he's a master recruiter, who lost an entire recruiting class, at Tennessee. Not Morehead State or Southern Miss.


OMG, the sky is falling you need to get that info to Dave immediately. I hate being trolled.

What's the deadline for a player to commit and be eligible to play next year?

So what did your VN screen name used to be? :popcorn:

Looks like some possible surprises coming with some recruits in the coming two weeks and hopefully sooner depending on if these players are granted releases and some who are cleared to commit.

What CDT said on Basilio show. We had to get in better shape to play his system. He said the players have never been through workouts like the ones coming in May and through the summer.

No disrespect to dirty don, but nic christopher was legit. I highly doubt our guys last season wouldn't have cut it in s&c under the new regime. Different styles, I get that. But we never tired down in a game last season.

Once we started playing like we were capable we never had to leave it all on the floor; we blew everyone out.

or maybe we blew everyone out because we decided to leave it on the floor at the tip and were getting 15-20 points 5 minutes into the game instead of sitting at 4-6 pts and more slow starts that were killing us as we came out at the tip not ready to play.

Yeah, either way. Point remains, nicodemous (sp) was a star. Hate to lose that guy.

Pearl's first recruiting class was ryan childress. Martin's was quinton. I guess the definition of a troll is someone who thinks it's crazy to thank that Tyndall will bring in a recruiting class that will put us at the top of the sec talent wise. And to think someone will do something he's never shown a proclivity to be able to do before.

Are we going after Jordan Goodman?

Coaches evaluated him this weekend in Dallas, doubt they offer at this point, but could be someone to watch.

Jmo, but I think they've got their eyes set on:

USM Signees: Carmichael (frosh) & Suarez (JUCO)

JUCO- Octavius Ellis, Kevin Punter

Grad Transfer- Ian Chiles, Houston Duo, Justin Martin

Transfer- Ronnie Johnson

Freshman- Tariq Owens & Elijah Minnie

I thought the Houston Duo was a regular transfer

No Pollard?

1 is a senior that might try to graduate....you'd think if he's a senior he would be on pace to.

The other is a junior, plenty of juniors who graduate in 3 years. He's also seeking a waiver to play immediately.

Nobody really knows how to categorize those 2 as things could change with them.

Just an educated guess or have we seen anything definitive on twitter, etc? I, too, haven't seen or heard anything about Pollard who I believe is a great talent. It'll be a dog fight for just about all of these guys.

so I guess he is ok if he signs 2 because that equals Pearl and Martin combined.

I guess, my question is why worry about it?

He is not going to sit on his backside and do nothing.
He will get the players he needs and coach the ones he's got.
He may surprise some fans and he may not.
I am willing to give him a chance so why are you being such a snot?

Let's wait and see if he can coach in the SEC,
before you shove him out the door and call him history.
Six months to go before he puts on his show.
Only time will tell, if Donnie can bring hell.

VQ had mentioned a number of the guys, so I'm assuming it was fed from Tyndall. A couple of the names are guys I know Tennessee has reached out to, and a couple other have been linked together on twitter.

I would say there's a few names I'm leaving off, but that majority are on their board.

Asking again, is there a time limit for CDT to put a class together for next year, and if so, what is it?
