He’s as good or better than one we’ve got committed. But I don’t think we’re taking him. Not unless a couple guys tell us no.Quote:

ETA - Wouldn't surprise me if he got an OM offer as they need to start filling that class and none of our 24/7 guys have even mentioned him as a possibility on the OL we're chasing
Really wish we could get Edgerinn Cooper but it looks like he's intent on being the backup plan for a blue blood.
He Is the type of players that the blue bloods keep warm to prevent him from signing early, and sign at the last second only for us to never hear of them again.
Cooper is the exact type of player that is the personification of why schollies need to be cut to 70-75. For a blue blood, he is nothing more than a stockpiled talent that they'll recruit over when he could be a productive starter for us. Just stinks that college football works like this.
It destroys the sports and creates the reason why most Saturdays we watch blowouts.
Oklahoma is as blue blood as it gets.. and he decomitted thereQuote:

Let’s just get thru Wednesday with no hiccups and then focus on filing the class up in Feb...
What's your best guess on Forbes Wednesday?Quote:

So have we been looking at any grad transfer options at WR?
I don?t usually have solid recruiting info, but I?ve heard nothing but good things on Forbes for the past month, I think he signs Wednesday.Quote:

Yancy has been feeding the sheep that Forbes is a grade risk so that means he's 100% signing with usQuote:

Last year, I think we signed around 13 in the early signing period, so we still had roughly half our class to hold on to until February. Knocking most of them out early just allows you to focus on on a couple of targets (like Cooper and an OL or 2).
I think this class is well-rounded and addresses most of our needs, except at OLB, but Joe has until February to get that fixed.
The 85 scholarship rule allows the blue bloods to eat so much of the available talent that it makes it almost impossible for a mid-tier team to build a complete, balanced roster with capable players
