Who else are we after on the DL?

We have Wiley & Benito. I assume Tisdale projects at defensive end at his height.

I know we're after Simmons, whom we have a good shot at, and Gary who we're a longshot to land.

Doesn't staff feel like we need one more DT and DE? If so, who are the realistic prospects?

ETA: In particular, who's our backstop if we don't land Simmons?

Is Collins Moore on scholarship?

He tweeted that he was granted a sixth year of eligibility. Which is good for him
But he was a senior and all of the seniors have to leave to open up scholarships.

Yes, he is on scholarship and I share your mindset, but I doubt we are turning down star players because of this. Plus this was expected to happen so our recruiting numbers shouldnt change.

He's the first guy in years that has allowed me to actually watch a punt return knowing we had a chance to not screw it up. Well worth his scholarship.

Naquan Jones is the only kid that I actually feel like we might land on the DL outside of Simmons and even with him I would put the chances around 35%. Kobe Jones is a possibility I guess. If AJ and Willie both end up being rebels, (serious doubt with AJ) then Kobe would probably follow, though we like him at OG more than DT.

We are on the outside looking in on Rashaan Gary, Ed Oliver, and Rashard Lawerence.

Naquon jones did commit to Michigan state two weeks ago.

But a slim chance to flip him back is reasonable.

I doubt it though this is his second time committing to the. I think?

He decommitted and then recommitted. That's happened a lot this cycle.

We aren't getting Oliver unless Herman leaves. And I don't see that happening now.

Keep telling him Herman is leaving for aTm or Texas as soon as that opens up, and it will open up soon.

From what I can gather, these are the guys we are probably still going after on the DL:
Rashaun Gary
Terrell Hall
Jeffrey Simmons
Johnathan Kongbo - UT Commit
Rashard Lawrence
What would be interesting to me is, if the swirling rumors about Sumlin land him jobless and TAMU throws the bank at Herman, does that open back up guys who had us in the top before committing(Ed Oliver, Justin Madibuike, Tyrie Cleveland(not DL, i know).

Sounds like we've gone all in on Simmons then.

ETA: I think I read here that Simmons projects as a DT. If so, then Wiley, Benito, Simmons, Tisdale would give us 4 DL for this class.

We've been after him for a while now. It's not some big secret or anything. Terrell Hall is the other one that I think we'll push hard for or so I hope.

If you guys wanna frick around with a CB, you can vote for where I CB some guys.

Since DD thinks I'm a prolific and very active CBer, I went ahead and made another voting thread just for him.

It takes forever to get used to.

That thread is especially weird, because it's in contest mode. Which randomizes the comments. It keeps people from downvoting.

I feel pretty good about DL, but what are we doing about LB?

Are we promising Luafatasaga and Mique they are it? Are White and Divinity out of reach? (And what about Bitulli?)

Donta Evans is an EE who will be on campus in January. I'm sure there will be another LB or two that we snag even if they are diamonds.

Oh yeah, that's right. I was just excited about seeing White in news feed recently and with Divinity decommitting and whatnot.
