Just got information from a source

[tvols75]

He told me not to mention him but that he didn't mind if I posted it that the information that he got from within the Athletic Department was that we could enroll 28 (not counting the 3 we can sign and place). People will point to Hubbs saying we could only enroll 26, but Hubbs missed it last year on the number of players we could sign as well. This could explain why we are after so many really good players. So take it for whatever it's worth I just thought this would be interesting to discuss.

Thanks :good!:

 

[UTVOLS107]

I really hope he's right. We need to sign as many players as we can.

 

[Jwill10ut]

That does make a lot of since as to why we are still after so many guys because I have no idea about the whole back counting thing.... Thanks for info

 

[VolsFanRJ]

That would be nice. As low as we are on numbers we need to sign as many as possible.

Hope it's true

That is what this person said. I have no clue if it's right or wrong, but I am hoping that it's right.

[Z06Vol]

28 sure would help. Hope it's true!

 

[gorockytop101]

What if people from the previous class transfer? Not sure if that opens up spots or not.

 

[GoBigOrange_2309]

I know that they can place in junior college, but can we still send them to prep schools of a year?

And who would be the 3 candidates for sign and place?

 

[GoBigOrange_2309]

and what is a prep school? is it like a high school or a juco or what? and do they lose a year of eligibilty? hopefully somebody reading this knows the answer. jmoore? lv?

A prep school is like an extra year of high school. The athletes don't lose a year of eligibility.

Hargrave is one of the most well known.

Whew! Every time I open one of these source threads I expect to hear the sky is falling. Great news if that's the truth.

thanks. do they play there or just go to school and try to get their grades up? and they would count towards next years class right?

They play there. IIRC, UT used to scrimmage them with "JV" players.

They play other prep schools and some "JV" teams from big time schools.

They count towards the year they enroll
