We’re pretty sure at this point that Kelly and Donaldson will join the class next Thursday. And we’re somewhat sure that Clemons and Bobo will be in the class sometime between now and mid September.

Adding those 4, Auburn would be in the top 25 with only 13 commits. If we take out our #1 kicker commit, the 12 others average rating is .8932 which is solidly a 4* class average. That’s not going to knock anyone’s socks off but it’s a solid base for the rest of this 2022 class.

That number is essentially unknown at this point because scholarship accounting is incredibly difficult to do from the outside

Which brings up an interesting possibility: will schools themselves have difficulty tracking all the comings and goings, and end up getting penalized for exceeding the 25/85 limits?

It seems like the portal has potentially made keeping up with this just as challenging for the people paid to do it
