These are seniors that we will lose:

Palardy, Moore, Drummer, Brewer, Neal, Juin, Oliver, Crump, Sapp, Couch, Fugate, Propst, King, Carr, Smith, Walls, James, Fulton, Bullard, Ayers, Hood, & McCullers.



These are juniors who are likely to go to the NFL:

Johnson, Maggitt, Tiny


Also, add about 5 more players who leave to program voluntarily or get kicked off the team during the season.


Now your total would be (30) players.


The 22 players that graduate are guaranteed to go.


The 3 players who may go to the NFL early are probably 75% gone.


The 5 players who voluntarily leave or get kicked off of the team are about 100% guaranteed.

Drummer and Juin are walk ons.

All seems correct... however UT still has to stay under the 85 scholarship limit. To sign 30 they have to have 55 on scholarship after the season. Butch will need to do some trimming.

Butch will not need to do some trimming. I suspect that some of the players will voluntarily leave the program.

We see it every year. Matt Milton, D' Anthony Arnett, the running back that transferred to Ball State, Toni Williams, etc. etc.

Guys, it's this simple:

We can take the 25 allotted in 2014. Period.

Then, in 2012, we signed 24 players, but 5 EEs will be backcounted to 2011. This was before the new rule. That means the new 2012 number was 19. Keep that in mind.

In 2013, we signed 23 players (including Vickers and Johnson later on). We backcount 5 EEs to make the number in 2012 back up to 24 and in 2013 it's 18.

Now, in 2014, we will sign 30 total, backcount 5 of the EEs to 2013 which will leave 25 for the 2014 class, but 30 total commitments.

Make sense?

OK but how do you handle walk ons from there?
