Yes, Bono has 1 Rivals 3 Star, Fleck has had as many as 12 with one poached by MSU, 1 by Penn State, and 2 by Cuse.

It's so close

Re: Recruiting
That would not be unusual. A first year coach usually makes personnel changes. Keno dumped almost everybody from the hoops team. Certainly Bono and his staff have seen everyone's ability over the past 10 months and can advise those that will not be fitting into the future style of play.

It's the unfortunate side of athletics, not just football.
Fire Up Chips!"

Desperate times for tge Slappies. Now they're hoping Bono starts booting the stiffs off the team to open up spots. Problem is there's so many to sift through.

But really what's the point. You boot ten guys off that nobody else wanted, and replace them with 10 more guys that nobody else wants. I guess you have get the scraps that are left this late in the game.

You might want to leave a spot for Wilborn. He might show up someday.

PJ must have cooled on him. Didn't jump into the boat right away.
I see he had a wmu offer, plus Minnesota and UT. Must be off the charts 'cause wmu beat MTCC in a bowl game, and they get the best players on Earth.

Dear Dr. Of Love,

We've had 3 receivers verballed since Aug. We have 7 on the roster. We didn't need another receiver, let alone the scraps that are left out there. Same with UT,. They were full at WR. Miami was still in the market, didn't leave the poor boy much to choose from.

Keep plugging away. There's still some kids scrambling to find a school.

Sincerely,

Your Pal Dip

Have one at ND and Iowa as well that were verballed last spring. We replaced them, and will likely find a way to replace any more that leave.

Not only does Fleck land quality talent like Chukes that a bunch of big programs were after, his best finds sometimes are the 2 star guys not a lot of people wanted. Corey Davis and Darius Phillips

Now the mantra is "Finally, a coach who recognizes the need for speed."

Keep in mind, their big speed guys are Edwards and Guilly. Edwards WR ran a 4.76 and Guilly RB ran a 4.6.

Brad Tanner is being brought in as a WR ran a 4.45. Phillips, Bellamy, and Braverman have all run sub 4.4s.

Are Guilly and Edwards fast compared to a slow poke RB like Jaylon Hayes, or a WR like Kroll. I suppose.
