I'm with you capstone.This 28 rule is the most confusing thing out there this year.If the conference is going to set a limit then they should set a limit.There are loopholes everywhere with this #.Auburn isn't doing anything wrong but if they can sign 33 with 5 counting to last year then what is the point of the 28 rule.It's not going to matter in the long run because with everyone signing 28 ther will be no room for anyone to backcount in the future.Those 3 extra guys still have to greyshirt and count to next year so it will limit #'s in the future.I'm still trying to figure out how Bama is going to fit this year's whole class in with their very close #'s pertaining to 85.i'm sure it will work out but eventually you guys are going to have a small class.I've heard next year is probably the year with 15-20.You never know with Saban.he gets it done so all's well.

Auburn's only planning on taking 28 that will be a part of this upcoming class. Pretty much all of our juco guys except for Bono, plus Curry and Sanders are back counting to last year's signing class. So because of that, with the 27 we've got right now, 5 of them back count which puts us at 22 for this upcoming class. We'll take 6 more, and I am going to bet that our 2 kicker commits will greyshirt, and that Richardson is rumored to not commit. Plus, there's bound to be a little more attrition after that.

Now, from there, we're looking to take 6 more in this class. I believe that we'll end up with one of Thornton, Whitaker and Jones, either Ken Adams or Corey Lenoimer, hopefully Latt, I think we'll sway Mack, and I'd love for us to pull Vic Beasley, but I don't think that'll happen.
