What we are establishing here is that the attrition we are going to have, we aren't going to really like even though it's absolutely necessary at this point. Good players that we've felt all along had good potential are going to have to be let go so the next crop can be brought in.
5 classes on campus = 17 players/class = 85 scholarship limit. I think we take 22 or so in every class going forward to account for some attrition. You can bet that we will have some early attrition in the 2013 class as well from guys that just can't cut it at the college level -- just like we did in the 2012 class.

seems to be a disciplinary issue, but I'd take a flyer on him over Ricco at this point.
Coach made a good point about not needing him.

Without a doubt, the worst scholarship to give is to someone who plays a full 5 years (redshirt plus 4) and never sees the field for any reasonable time.
If only Templeton Hardy would've followed them, what a waste he was.

Griffin (medical)
Muniz
Harrison-Gay
J. Washington
Those are the guys that immediately come to mind for me, although I think some of them still have potential to produce. I think we can probably cut lose of an OLB or two as well and maybe a DB.
ETA: Had Lawson on the list...

There has to be a few cuts somewhere- or we will be signing 13-14 guys this Feb....might as well be at a position with lots of young guys

I've never seen him play/practice, but he's apparently no head-turner because we hear nothing about him. He was a bit of a head-scratcher signee anyways.

Griffin won't be cut. He can/will come back.

how does harrison-gay play as a true frosh, then never see the field again?

I've never heard a negative word about Washington, just wasn't that impressed with him coming out of high school and think he's going to get left behind by the other players we've pulled into the program. I hope he proves me wrong.

Headscratcher signee? It was us or Ohio State at the time.
