How are the #'s for your recruiting class looking? I ask because one of the reasons given that beal could ultimately flip to us is that the #'s are getting tight over there and it may effect his recruitment.

Exactly what was said was that Beal does like the idea of going to USC more than his post visit comments indicate and the #'s being tight over there could be the deciding factor.

We have 23 guys committed and room for 3, possibly 4 if the right guy wanted come in (Nico Collins and Jamyest Williams are thought to be the 2 that would always have a spot; I highly doubt we get either at this point). Beal is our top DL and we have no shot what-so-ever at Aubrey Solomon, so Beal's spot is secure. We rotate our DL a lot so there is the opportunity for early PT as well. There is very little worry from our end on Beal, but these are 17-18 year old kids and they surprise you every now and again.

Edit: I could also see us landing Ameer Speed and Markaviest Bryant and calling it a day at 25, saving the extra scholarship for whichever kicker wins the job in fall camp. We also expect several scholarships to open up during/after spring, though.
