    Definitely not a fan of taking one RB after only taking Dick Newton last year. Other than that as long as we can pull Ngata and just forgetting about our woeful pass rusher recruiting it’s a really solid class, especially along the lines. I don’t love it as much as last years class however next year is poised to be a monster class so I’m not overly concerned.

    Just give me one guy that can really rush the passer, that’s all I want.

    Only taking one RB given how good the RB class is would be very perplexing. I'm really not sure what the plan is. Also not sure if they take two which other position to dock one from, unless we miss on Ngata.
    Yea I totally understand. It’s just after Gaskin leaves this year there is a good chance Salvon leaves after next year if he shows he can be the every down baller we all think he can be. In two years we could have Pleasant (who I’ve liked in limited action), Mcgrew who is a midget and has done nothing so far, Dick, and the kid this year. Not a fan of that depth at all.

    Dick Newt is the Jake Browning of the 2018 class

    Don’t get me wrong I’m hoping they all pan out especially Mcgrew because having a baller midget white running back who loves trump would be hilarious, I just don’t think it’s going to happen.

    Also I forgot Dennis said Ryan Bowman was gonna be Hau’oli Kikaha so we gucci on pass rushers for the next three years.

    On a slightly more serious note if he actually does turn out to be that good and Tyron busts out this year like I’m hoping he can praise be to allah.

    He compared him to Kikaha because they're both undersized and athletically limited, and both sell out to get sacks and TFLs.

    Which means he can be quite good if he becomes as technically proficient as Kikaha, but will always be somewhat limited.

    So I know I did one of these back in like February but I can't find it so we'll start from scratch. I really don't know how many schollies we're going to have available so I'm just going to use last year's 21 as a starting place. Obviously more or less kids could make a big impact on the accuracy of this projection. Kids in bold are kids I'm projecting to be added to the class.

    QB
    Current Commits: Morris
    Projected signee total: 1
    What's left: DONE

    RB
    Current Commits: Cameron Davis
    Projected signee total: 1
    What's left: No idea who we end up with here, I just can't imagine us only signing one given the makeup of the roster and the depth of the RB class. I could see us settling for Taron Madison maybe? You know what, let's say we're just getting one.

    WR
    Current Commits: Taj Davis
    Projected signee total: 2
    What's left: Joe Ngata. Probably just signing one if we don't get him. Coin flip between us and Clemson at this point. I believe in Lubick. The rare out of state recruit where I think the longer he waits to commit the better that bodes for us.

    OL
    Current Commits: Kalepo the GOAT, Corey Luciano (JUCO)
    Projected signee total: 4
    What's left: Julius Buelow, Troy Fautanu, Bailey Elder (not offered)
    Analysis: Fautanu is underrated and might be easier to close than he should be. Buelow's not but I like our chances anyway. Ultimately I'm guessing we cap the class there though I'd love to see them go 5 and add Elder. There are a few other guys out there we could pull if need be (Barrett Miller) but I think this will be it.

    TE
    Current Commits: none
    Projected signee total: 1
    What's left: Isaiah Foskey, Jude Wolfe, some lesser rated WTEs that we'll end up signing one of and sending to the NFL. Foskey would be chincredible.

    DL
    Current Commits: Sama Paama, Noa Ngalu
    Projected signee total: 4
    What's left: Faatui Tutele, Jacob Bandes, Apu Ika, Stephon Wright
    Analysis: Could see us taking any two of the above four and would be thrilled with any combo. Tutele is the big prize and I think we have a real shot but until we start signing out of state 5 stars I'm going to expect us to miss on them. But man I want that kid.

    OLB
    Current Commits: Alphonzo Tuputala
    Projected signee total: 2
    What's left: Bralen Trice, Treven Ma'ae, Colt Ellison (lol), Drake Jackson
    Analysis: Trice is the guy we seem to want the least, so yeah.

    ILB
    Current Commits: Miki Ah You
    Projected signee total: 2
    What's left: Daniel Heimuli, Maninoa Tufono
    Analysis: Love to get them both, don't see how they all fit.

    DB
    Current Commits: Kamren Fabiculanan
    Projected signee total: 4
    What's left: Darien Chase, Cameron Williams, Spam Chancellor, Trent McDuffie
    Analysis: I'd gladly take any 3 of the above 4, McDuffie seems least likely.

    Specialists
    Current Commits: 0
    Projected signee total: 1
    What's left: Timothy Horn (K)

    This puts us at 22, and doesn't include Jordan Lolohea who I'd like to still add. Scholarship limitations are a bitch.

    That would be finishing with 9 4-stars and 2 3-stars. Not bad
    Are you impressed by their stars?

    Kikaha was a 2nd round pick, he wasn't especially limited. Bowman always will be.
    Kikaha is very limited. He has short arms and runs a 4.9 40. He's a good pass rusher because he has good technique and a quick first step, plus he sells out to make plays in the backfield. Sound like anyone?

    I never said Kikaha wasn't good, but he had to overcome a lot of limitations to be good, and he still had some weaknesses to his game. Kikaha as a senior is Bowman's best case scenario as a senior.

    At least not against anybody good. He could do very well against half the dreck in our schedule.

    "Kikaha as a senior is Bowman's best case scenario as a senior."

    But it's not.

    Kikaha was insanely good as a senior. I like Bowman. He can contribute, maybe even make an HM All Pac team before he leaves if all goes well. He's not going to be an All American.

    Did I say best case or did I say definitely? All I'm saying is that they have similar traits. Don't read into it any more than that...
