We? currently have 13 hard (tee hee) commits. Consensus was we would take 18, opinions seem to be moving towards 20, which seems right around the right number to me. Could even be 21 or 22 if we got a couple mission kids, but most likely 20.

Offense so far:
QB: 2 - full unless we take McKee for 2020
RB: 0 - need one
WR: 2 - full
Chico: 1 - full
BTE: 1 - full
WTE: 0 - full?
OL: 3 - full?

Offensively we have 9 commits and only one clear 2018 spot available, with the possibility of another lineman maybe?

Defense so far:
DL: 1 - need one more, hopefully two
OLB: 0 - need at least one
ILB: 2 - full
CB: 1 - need one more
S: 0 - need one

Defense is where the work remains. We need at least one more DL, an OLB, another corner and a safety. Would really love two DTs.

Low end that puts as at 18 (adding an RB, DL, OLB, CB, S). If we go to 20 that means two DT and an extra something (OL, OLB, WTE, or just a spot for whatever elite talent might jump here last minute [Tre'Shaun!]).

Since I think we're going 20 let's map it out this way. The class is going to finish with some combination of the below players. My realistic preferences in bold.

RB - Brown or Figlet. Like most, I much prefer Rihaana smacker to Figlet.

OL - Hoping for Beresford just because I'm a doog for Coker and DDY.

DL - Tremblay, Taimani or Cravens. Tremblay's the most important recruit in the class IMO.

OLB - Zion. Poopoo Solomon is my doog wet dream but I know that's not going to happen. I'd still be very happy with Zion.

CB - Gordon or GTFO. Honestly not even sure who else we're recruiting other than Taylor-Stuart-Not-Coming-Here.

S - Irvin, Addison or Crosswell. Irvin seems most realistic. Would be thrilled with any of them.

A couple of questions:

1. If Tremblay doesn't come here would we take two more incoming frosh DL? I kind of think that answer is no, not sure. Hopefully we'll never find out.

2. If DDY is correct and they might be secretly planning to move Zion to DL, does that mean a) they don't take Taimani/Cravens if/when Zion commits? b) who else are they looking at at Buck besides the Texas kid who's not coming here?

3. What do we do if Gordon leaves? (Besides mass suicide, of course)

4. In the unlikely event we whiff on the three Cali safeties where do we turn?

5. Who will be the best Cuog commit come early December who we decide to steal just because we can?

TL; DR: DO WE HAVE A SHOT WITH THESE KIDS????

    Unlikely we need to answer more than one of those, but it seems like there will be a negative surprise somewhere along the lines.

    Agree. Tremblay it sucks to have Malloe in charge of his recruitment. I keep having wet dreams of Tosh Lopoi recruiting for Pete instead of Saban, what if...
    Bryan Addison is still in play at 6-5 (that's fucking Dana Hall height) and favored, and Irvin at 6-2" would make Legion of Boom type defensive backfield. Wet Dreams of
    6'2" Dominique at one corner 6'2 Keith Taylor with 5'11" Elijah Molden locking down the slot receiver.

    Really good chit, Dee-Enn-Cee.

    Either Tremblay or Taimani HAS to happen for our? DAWGS!!1! Abundance would be preferable... but if we don't get either, especially in light of last years DL recruiting bed-shitting, it's gonna start to cause significant issues down the road.

    Closing with Brown, Zion, Tremblay, Gordon, & Irvin would make for a really good class. Add Traimani and Addison to that list and it would be an excellent class imo.

    Anyways... quality breakdown, dude.
