Class of 2019 Projections

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.

    21 is about where I think we'll be, somehow doesn't feel like enough though. Pretty much agree with you, if we can get two of our elite DT targets I think we move Paama to OL and only take Buelow. If not, we take Fautanu/Elder. Then we'd have room to go after Tufono or another OLB and keep Phonz inside.

    I don't even know what that fucking means. Getting drunk and being stupid?

    I think Lolohea due to when he started his mission will essentially grayshirt for this class, so I believe he would affect 2020s numbers but I’m not positive.

    I think we’re still in on Enokk Vimahi as far as OL goes.

    For TE, Quentin Moore is likely someone we’d look at if we miss the 2 we’ve offered.

    Right on Lolohea, his last tweet was October 2017... so my guess is that hel’ll enroll in January 2020

    Can’t wait for the enevitable last minute James Atoe, stars don’t matter, type signee
