AUgrad2013 114 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 In the rivals article (I know, I know) Hunter said he called the coaches the day he got the offer an committed. It has just been kept silent. That is a good sign for the staff and being able to relate and communicate with recruits. We expected to get him but he did have offers from MSU and Iowa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravejd 3,272 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Excellent news about Hunter! We really needed a RB in this class or we were going to be having a giant hole in the roster in a couple of years. Has it been confirmed that the mystery flip is not Brooks?

For once Rivals is right (from what I've seen on the 247 board). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Keith said the flip is still in the works and it's neither Brooks nor Bridges (South Alabama flip) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeek 16,660 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 With Brooks (all but a lock) and the ausie punter from last year we're at 20 players towards this year's limit. 5 more to go! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's likely we still consider bringing in a QB transfer, two OL transfers to push for starting time, and we still want another RB, plus we have interest in LB and DB depth from a transfer. Short version, I think we fill all 5 with transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one class where we had to plug in positions of need and those players are three stars. Big difference. People need to get a grip. Yet, if we find success with this group, they would be talking about how they knew it all along. Please quote/read my whole post if your going to repost it. If you had you’s know that with the small quote you posted I was referring to someone else’s post. I totally agree with your point made here.

I also think that with a year under their belts the new staff should be able to use all 25 plus the five extra in the '22 class. Either way is, ok. I just doubt that the quality we need to win will be available at this point in time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year’s class will be loaded with big time players so it might not be a bad idea to save a couple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta take care of immediate needs 1st in the transfer portal if the staff finds talent they like & fits the culture for a couple OL, RB, CB, & LB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
