Noland, Bohannan, Bishop may be the only 3 that are SEC caliber.
Bohannan is going some place where he can play QB.

You would think that D-Tackle would be a pressing need in this class as will depth on the OL and at LB.
Probably take a DL or two. We will only lose Jackson and Roesler off this coming DL rotation. Not a huge need, especially when you consider the switch to a 3-4 front.
OL is in good shape now as well. Froholdt, Gibson, Jackson, Heinrich, Merrick, Rogers, and Wallace are all Sophomores or lower right now. We just added 3 EE's in this class, so our depth is getting where it needs to be. We will have 15 scholarship OL this season. We will only lose Ragnow off of this coming years starting OL and will return 4/5 starters. I do not imagine Raulerson will be a starter this season as he was eventually nudged out of the starting rotation as the season went on last year.
I see this class as a skill heavy lean. More DB's, OLB's, TE or two, RB or two, 3-4 DB's, a couple WR's to fill the void left by the JUCO duo in 2019 and one QB.
I would probably lay it out like this...assuming we sign 25
4 DB's
3 OLB's/DE's
2 TE
3 OL
1 QB
2 RB
2 DT
2 WR
2 ATH
Then fill the last few spots with best available all around.

good assessment.... of course a lot of the needs in this next class will be based on how those JC guys pan out. One way or the other you have to be recruiting behind them knowing that at best you only have them for 3 years and most just 2.

Considering the chances Noland never walks onto campus because of baseball what's the harm in recruiting bohannon
