Originally for recruiting this year I thought it was 15, now we are at 16 signed. Dodson/Kamara transfer allows 17. So what's the plan to get CeCe,Van Jeff, Weathersby, Lodge, etc? Those are the top 4 that come to my mind initially. So does that mean we have to either kick people off this years class or hope for more transfers? I'm not a genius at this I hate to admit.

Also I think we lose like 19 or so not including early draft enrolles next season man we could have beast class!

The numbers will always work. Best to just not worry about it.

I just looked and counted...

We lose potentially 47 players after 2015. Including all seniors and draft enrolling juniors.

Am I doing something wrong or is that possible?

Does ryan mean we sign 30+ players in an upcoming year or no? Typically it's capped at 25 right?

Next season we will lose far more than 19 total. I calculated around 24-26( including the juniors i expect to jump). We will have 4-6 juniors leaving for the Nfl if everyone stays healthy.

Wow no. Bad math. Just because you see someone on the roster does not mean they have a scholarship. You can only sign 25 per year anything over must be back counted to the year before up to a maximum of 5 i believe. So if we sign 20. We could potentially sign 30 next year.

Lol. Gimme a break bro I failed college alg twice at Ole Miss. Still graduated. Damn I had dreams of signing 30+ 5 stars and not one of them was Enrique Davis-esque.

Ha I'm the complete opposite. I think i passed every math offered at ole miss, switched from business calculus to engineering lol.

Hey dream big. But the only way to sign more than 30, I think, is to have grey shirt situations. Or whatever the hell tennesse is doing. We still need about two more scholarship players to transfer... Who is expendable? Kailo and Brazley?

I just had a realization of recruiting and numbers... How does the count back work? Can we count any of this years recruits back to last year.. I mean the early enrollees? How many did we have 4? Or does that not apply here?
Scholarships available 15 +2 transfers =17 scholarships
17+4 early enrollees that count toward previous class, so 21 total?


Eta. We signed 26? In 2014 class 6 of which were early enrollees if a few of them were backcounted then we could still back count into 2014 s class...
Ive got a headache
