Medical retirements increase size of recruiting class?

With Joyner and Pulu being medically retired, does this open up another 2 spots for us to take kids, or does UW figure things like this always happening into the size class they plan on taking.
Also, I think there is a 50/50 chance Chico "seniors out" and Pounds there's a 75% he is also done imo, which adds at least another 1 or 2 that we know about right now.
I thought they we were going to take 18-20 in the class. Does this push it up to 22-24 now?

No, Pete will give scholarships to try hard walk ons, and they will be our starting LB corp for the next 3 years. HTH.

With Joyner it almost certainly adds one. Pulu hard to say. I know they factor in projection attrition into the numbers they take but when it happens this early (before signing day) I think it allows them to reset. My guess is they have added one more scholly to their expected take based on the two medical retirements. Pounds probably adds another one.
McClatcher will be here next year IMO. -
Class size - coming into the season I was thinking 21 (thanks to Kaho opening one up, fyfmfe). With this info, combined with the number of blue chippers they seem to have a good probability of getting I could see it going as high as 23.

All the walk-ons who got scholarships this year were seniors. Wambaugh, Clark, Vegara.Thebourbinator said:No, Pete will give scholarships to try hard walk ons, and they will be our starting LB corp for the next 3 years. HTH.

I don't think Clark is on scholarship, he's a redshirt junior though and will be back next year. Matt Preston got a scholarship and he's a senior.NEsnake12 said:

Clark will get one next year

Jesus.

Whatever class size people are predicting 9-12 months out add 5.
-
I'm guessing we see more attrition in terms of transfers this year, possibly a medical with Pounds. Burleson and Soderberg should be gone without question (suddenly senior perhaps). Myles Rice doesn't look like he has a prayer of seeing starting time. Mike Neal - I cant remember if hes still on the team.scrempos will likely be passed up by freshmen. Amanda really needs to step it up or GTFO.
Flush the toilet, Pete -
We’re going to have like 45 scholarship freshmen next year given that Pete is 4 game redshirting the whole 2018 class

I know your joking but I don't think you are wrong. Jeff is basically bigger faster stronger blacker BBK. Probably would have a bunch of offers if he wasn't from alaska and his name wasn't Jeff.Thebourbinator said:No, Pete will give scholarships to try hard walk ons, and they will be our starting LB corp for the next 3 years.

Edefuan "Jeff" Ulofoshio. He's not faster than BBK and barely any bigger, but he's really nice for a walk-on. BBK would also be a really nice walk-on, but unfortunately he's a starter for us.HillsboroDuck said:

Also, Jeff went to Bishop Gorman, so saying he didn't get offers because he's from Alaska is wildly misleading. Also his name isn't Jeff it's Edefuan.

I've stood next to both of them. I'm probably bigger then BBK and noticably smaller then Jeff.NorwegianHusky said:

Spent his first 8 years playing football in alaska. Played 3 years at bishop Gorman took 2 years to adjust to competitive football and only played a full year as a senior. If you don't see how being from Alaska is a disadvantage, I cant help you.
Good thing he changed his name after enrolling or we would have never got him. -
So who is alpha or beta? Huh

I recall hearing CP say the program "honors" the scholarships of medical retirees. So do med. retirements really open up a scholyt if the retiree is still enrolled in school? Or do the scholarships for med retirees come from a different scholarship pool?
-
PAC-12 made some rule that made school honor medical retirement, without hitting the scholarship limit. Where the money comes from, no fucking ideaDawgWagonDan said:I recall hearing CP say the program "honors" the scholarships of medical retirees.

Its an NCAA rule that medical exemptions aren't "counters" towards the scholarship limits.WeakarmCobra said:

The Pac 12 may have mandated that schools cover these scholarships but I've never heard of a school that doesn't pay for scholarships under the medical exemption rule.

BBK is getting first team mid season AA honors from everyone.
He isnt a thumper but he is a great player

Is that like being "actor of the year" based on box office dollars?PostGameOrangeSlices said:NorwegianHusky said:

I'd say if anything this levels the playing field for us? Against the saban's of the world. Those guys were getting forced out anyways before at those programs. Now at least we? aren't handicapped by honoring medical retirees schollies.FremontTroll said:

Not sure where Petersen stands on these big Boy tactics ... but if you ain't cheating you ain't trying as they say.
As for Petersen its about cheating the right way that i hooe he gets better at as it seems we can't compete on the coffee cup circuit.
Development, okg and education instead of jobs and cars and a cup full of Cash. -
I dont know what you are referring to about leveling the playing field. Medical exemptions have existed for as long as I've been watching college football.UW_Doog_Bot said:
