re: Football Recruiting Thread (2017 Cycle): Signing Day Updated!

I'm calling it now, this will be one of my favorite and most exciting threads of the 2016 year. I just looked at some of the 2017 recruits the coaching staff is now engaging with and there is some elite talent there.

The in state talent of SC is going to be better overall this year.

We now have 3 Elite Recruiters on staff (Muschamp, TRob and BMac. Eilliott is also a really solid recruiter as well. Bentley will open a lot of doors in state but his recruiting ability will be TBD. If Johnson is a position coach, then his recruiting is already proven. If we get Lance Thompson too, then we'll have 4 Elite Recruiters on staff. If we get Lawing as well, it will be the best recruiting staff we ever had.

We'll be adding even more support staff (more recruiting staff than we've ever had,) and we're adding the right people (former players/coaches with SC/NC/GA/FL/VA ties.)
We still have the SEC's only football nutritionist on staff.

We have a new IPF and new practice/playing surfaces. We have brand new suites/dorms that rival anything any other housing a team has in the country, we have The Dodie (which is the best academic facility for student-athletes in the country,) we have a new-ish weight room/locker rooms, and we're building a new $50M football operations facility. We have an AD who knows what it takes to win big, who isn't afraid to sign big checks and we have more $ coming in than ever before.

We'll have everything in place to recruit and compete at a national level shortly. I think the 2017 class is going to be up there with the '07 class, we are about to go on a tear on the recruiting trail.
