What they are trying to do is keep their rating up for hype purposes with the hopes of replacing one of the 17 offensive line commits with a bunch of 4-5 stars down the line based on the hype and buildup.Quote:

Regardless, I feel like OL is in good hands after Jones' interview where he listed Johnson as the #1 reason he'd come here. Gotta believe he'll consistently get solid guys year after year if he keeps building those kind of relationshipsQuote:

Point is, you never know what will happen. If you're in the running, you never know how things may change.
Yeah was really hoping Jones would have waited till after BDC and pushed back his decision.. there are no trophies for finishing second in recruiting but it’s damn sure an upgrade from the last 9 years of OL recruiting . This staff gets it and OL recruiting will continue to improve under Coach Johnson

I'll put it this way. Kyler Murray went 9th overall this year & Ealy is better with a similar profile
And he will be playing college football this year. I understand your point, I just thought it had a bit of irony to it.Quote:

Since we aren't getting a RB from the '18 class, now, are we going to open a spot for a second RB? Is the optimism for beating out Georgia for Emery still there?
No unless it’s someone we can’t turn downQuote:
