Was playing with the 247 class calculator, McGhee, Punter, Mostella, Owens and Cofer would still only have us around 36, thought it would be higher.

Not bad considering he only has a few weeks to assemble this class and still assembling a better class than CCM. Can't wait to see what he will do with an entire year to recruit.

JMO but personally I award double points for Cofer, Hubbs and Mostella just because of the situation.

A 36th ranked class to me is worthy of a top 5 recruiting job at this point IMO.

Tariq Owens is coming in on an official next week as is Phil Cofer, that's two big ones. I think Suarez, the PG that signed at USM, is still a possibility. Depending on how things go with Cofer I think the staff could make a move on Willie Carmichael, the USM signee that was recently released. I imagine we might see another name or two pop out of nowhere like Mostella did this week.

Oh the job itself would be an absolute Homerun if you can add Suarez, Cofer and Owens to the 3 current signees.

Tyndall knows what he needs here. His words if you haven't read them yet:

Southern Mississippi's roster this season included seven junior-college transfers and two Division I transfers. Tyndall says his recruiting approach will change now that he's in the SEC. He plans to target Tennessee, Georgia and Florida while emphasizing Memphis.

"At this level, you have to for the most part recruit top-100 type high school players and build it with high school guys," Tyndall said. "This first year could be a little different because it's so late in the process. Trying to get the best high school players, there just aren't many of those out there right now. I do think moving forward you'll have a timely junior-college transfer or four-year transfer sprinkled in with predominantly high school guys."

Lol every coach in our history says they are going to put an emphasis on Memphis. Hopefully Stokes can reach back and start laying some actual inroads

I don't care about their rating (much). However, if we can keep Hubbs and add Suarez to this group, I think this team is going to be fun to watch.

I dont come to the Basketball Forum much, but it seems the attitude has changed here. When CDT was first hired, it seemed like 75% of the posters here thought it was a crap hire. Now it seems like most are happy. At first people thought he wouldnt be able to recruit. Now he has proven he can. Hopefully hell make some on court progress. Hopefully people temper their expectations for this first season

@cdortch: Any Tennessee hoops fans still worried about new staff's ability to recruit? There's still more to come.
