Grats to Coach and the team!

It's a very good class to reel in considering our 3 losing seasons in a row... but, just to be realistic, we still gotta deal with the rest of the SEC to get to the top.

Just to keep things in perspective... Alabama had 5 of the top 15 recruits (per ESPN) while our top recruit was ranked #43. Hopefully, Butch will lead a young team to a winning season this Fall, and we can build on the momentum for even stronger classes in the future.

Frankly, I'm just looking forward to being relavent again. Been a long time...

Espn keeps saying 37 commits I'm confused who is the other 6 or 7?

 

[PassedOutAwake]

Brown just signed with Oklahoma

Walk ons and confirmed grey shirts.

Oh ok thanks

Brown just signed with Oklahoma

He was a Vol all the way! Is it that much easier to get into Oklahoma?

 

[Majorvol23]

Just saw Orlando Brown committed to Oklahoma (?)

 

[chef3531]

His rejection is our protection. We got a great class.

Oh absolutely..I was very pleased he didn't pick FL or LSU lol. His dad showed where his heart was though

No. 2 lead pencil IMO

Utsports.com lists 33 "newcomers". Bryson Durden is the extra one. Still confused about that.

How did Oklahoma get Brown in, but we couldn't? Doesn't sound like a grade issue, after all. Too bad. We need OL.

OU is just willing to take the risk. UT did not need to. OU's recruiting has not been so good for the past few years.

It was worth the risk - we need Olineman badly. Head-scratcher.

Durden doesn't actually exist. It's revealed at the end of the movie.

Tell that to bama.

Bama begs to differ.

Nice. Espn.com says we have 37 commits. Rivals says 31. Hopefully the math is clearer after the press conference.

Next year I want to be the guy that drops into the recruiting forum on signing day and says "Hey, how'd we do?"

Never mind, ain't happenin

 

[zreeves]

So while there's still some time left today for recruits to come in, the big fish are mostly gone now. Rivals as of right now:

8 of the top 15 teams are SEC: Bama (1), LSU (2), UT (5), TA&M (6), Florida (7), Auburn (8), Georgia (9), UK (14)

Half the top 15 are SEC, incredible.

Remaining teams: Ole Miss (17), USCe (24), Arkansas (28), Mizzou (35), Miss State (41), Vandy (47)

Strange that Mizzou finished where they did. For a team that was pretty strong this year, figured they would have attracted more recruits.

to me it is crazier that 7 of the top 9 are in the SEC

Big Gulp huh?....well alright! :crazy:

Rivals doesn't include D Mixon, Jerome Dews, or the walk-ons.

IMO 31 was the hard number & Brown just ended up being the odd man out.
