ausburn 159 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 He Hearing that Toby may require surgery and a redshirt year. If so, the question becomes whether we sign him or keep the scholly for an early signee next year. JUCO's are supposed to provide immediate help. He has already had the knee surgery and in the rehab phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameronCrazy 1,076 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I'm perfectly happy with saving these 4 open spots for next year's class. And I still believe that DT is the strength of our team with the right coaching. We still have....

Mikey 16,714 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 If not signed, only chance of Top 10 class unanimously. We could sign several guys that won't qualify, thus boosting the class rankings. Then when they don't qualify academically we've forfeited their scholarships. I think having three more scholarships available for early enrolees next year is more important than bumping recruiting rankings. The rules have changed since Tuberville, Shula and Nutt were signing 35 a year with no consequences. These days signing non-qualifiers hurts your program. Back then it didn't matter.

auadmin 20 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Is the jury still out on whether T. Johnson can fully recover from his surgery? If he cannot go full speed, would he consider red shirting in '13 so that he could be fully healed. I doubt a player with NFL aspirations would want to wait year for a pay day, but I think it is an intriguing idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
