How are we in a numbers crunch when it seems like we had so much attrition the past few years, to the point BB was handing out schollys to multiple walk ons like it wouldn't matter

Wish he hadn't wasted one on Arinze.

He can take it back this year if he wishes. Arinze probably knew nothing was guaranteed.

Yes he can but we cant use it and sign someone else. Had he not offered it to him we could have signed 27 this year instead of 26.
Taking it back just helps us get under the 85 limit.

My bad. Forgot that rule.

Grrrrrr. That's a silly rule and will hurt us in building a walk on program to bridge gaps.

Loewen was a bigger scholly waste than Arinze

Voelze might have been the biggest of them all.....Loewen did at least contribute some during the season.

That's the lamest shite on Hogville, and one of the reasons I stopped posting there. I couldn't take the incessant "ZOMG PORK HAS SPOKEN AND HE'S WISE AND SAGELY" crap anymore.

Meh, Loewen actually contributed in Tate's absence. We all got excited about Arinze's spring game performance and got essentially nothing for it this season.

So if we hadn't given those 4 schollies plus Appollonio and Hurd we could have signed 32?
Tough spot but it shows Bret's character to reward the guys already in the program over Butch doing everything he can to get new recruits in at UT giving no shits about the players that Stuck with the school through Kiffin and Dooley.
In the long run we'll have better team chemistry but it sure doesn't help out the talent level to pick the 2 star in the hand and not trust that can recruit 4 stars from the bush.

Arinze is the only one who cost a spot with signing an additional recruit this year. The others just count against the 85 limit.

Hopefully Bielema brought a few grand with him...

True, and he does it probably in no small part because he was a walk-on himself at Iowa.

That kid looks good. If I didn't know he was a 2016 kid, you could easily convince me he's a senior.

JC Shurburtt just predicted Mike to the Hogs and a decision could come in the next 24 hours.
