    So 3 great commits today...now what to finish?

    OJ Smith, Marcus Griffin, Cory Thomas, Grant Harris, Trey Carter????

    Who can we close and do we have room? Any rabbits left?

    Frith would fill OL void for this class......

    I think we'll get one of the mentioned d-linemen, and I'm tthinking Grant Harris, most likely.

    It is tricky with Smith and Griffin...obviously you want them both but no qualifying issues with Griffin.....So with those 3 on board, does that leave us only 2 spots left?

    I'm thinking it's going to be Grant Harris and then one of the other out of state d-linemen. Paul seems to think Griffin is going to Arizona. I think Carter stays with OSU. So, I'm thinking it's going to be either Smith or Cory Thomas.

    I would also take Frith.

    My best guess:

    Harris
    Smith
    And I really hope Frith

    Don't get your hopes up on Frith. I think Jenkins filled our need on the OL

    True but getting Jenkins today I think DLinemen are more important in this class.

    Really hope you're right. He would give us a true ng when we use 3 linemen.

    If we get Grant Harris, OJ Smith, and Marcus Griffin we'll find room. And that would be a redonkulous finish! Would have loved to get a couple more OL but we can grab hit the Jucos hard next fall. We already have a good shot at the Danley kid at EMCC (I think that is his name)

    I think when we offered Jenkins that was Thomas's or Carter's spot so who knows.

    If Thomas wanted to come he still could. Out of Carter, Thomas, Harris, Smith, & Griffin if 3 of those wanted to come then we'd take 3.

    Most likely Grant Harris and at least one of OJ Smith/Marcus Griffin. Thomas and Carter don't seem like realities anymore. I could be wrong though.

    Sounds like Ok State opened the pocketbook with Carter- our momentum with him came to a screeching halt

    We've got room for 2 - 3 more guys and we'll get 2 DLs. One is already privately committed (reportedly) and we need to pull one of the other 4 guys left on the board. Definitely doable looks like Mullen is going to be serving up "Claim Chowder" to the guys who say he can't recruit.
