    This is a great stat - the only caveat is that the vast majority of the blue chips are young (hi Sark!) and we really won't see the benefits of those classes until a year or two from now.

    I think we only loose 3 x 4 stars to graduation, right - i.e., McGary, Adams and Browning. What 4 star kids are we likely to lose for early NFL departures?

    With 7 x (2019) 4 stars who have given verbals and our likelihood to pick up a few more, we're looking at being over 40 in progress for 2019.

    I won't be satisfied until we have over 54 blue chips on the roster. That's what the #1 blue chippers do and I think we can beat them.

    Yes, exactly, which also happens to coincide with our most likely having a big, dick swinging difference maker at QB. 2020 would be year 7 for Pete. Remember it took Dabo 8.5 years to get a natty at Clempson. Don James took 17 years. Bill McCartney needed 9 years at Colorado.
    Yeah and Coker needed 1!

    So 2020 speacial?
    #TheScript
    $special = function(){ if ( YEAR( NOW() ) == (YEAR( NOW() )) + 2) { return true; } else { return false; } }
    but do we win the north?
