The Lockhart transfer is relevant because that currently puts us at 60 expected scholarship players for next season, which would only allow us to sign 25 (we currently have 26 committed).

With the news that Armani Watts is staying, we still have to attrit between 3-5 more to pull in the class we expect.

no it's not. That's relevant to Texas A&M football.

We're taking 32 this year. Overall scholarship count doesn't matter to that.

Please stay on the crootin topic

Butch Jones utilized a "loophole" (LINK /) to build his program.

-He counted back players (up to 5)
-"Blue Shirted" Player walks-on and then he is awarded a scholarship---sounds similar to a "preferred walk-on"
-"Gray shirted" Kid takes a year off and enrolls with next year's class

I'm not sure how TX HS coaches would react to these tactics, but UT and Bama have utilized many of these with various levels of success.
