Yeah we are killing it so far. We will see how things play out as it's really early.

Class is 63rd nationally right now, we've never gotten out of the 90s since we've been FBS. Hopefully we can keep things rolling.

I wanna say we've been top 60 before early in one of the recruiting years. Maybe 2 years ago? Idr.

But like you said. It's early. Can't wait to see how we progress though.

Dang I'm jealous of y'all lol

Don't be too jealous. We've had good classes before but Fran wasn't able to turn those "stars" into anything special. It will take time to see if Withers can bring it out of them.

You're recruits will get better ratings when you're FBS just by virtue of you being FBS. Count on it.

Got another one today 6'6 300lb Guard Caleb Charlile

Add one more CB/QB Kordell Rodgers

Yep, it took about 3 minutes. Good one though, right?

Who is blue shirting this go round?

I honestly lost track. Turnage, Guevermont, a CB, another OL... I know there are others that I cannot recall.

I meant that at some point in the recruiting season, similar to now. Not after the class has signed and what not.

Not particularly excited. It's something to jaw about in the off season. It also makes it easier on the coaching staff when August rolls around and they don't have to take the time to be checking recruits, film, going to HS games, etc., during the season.

For us, it's Withers (and staff) first full class and we're watching to see how they do recruiting TX.

That would be monumental if y'all could finish top 70.

He committed today, giving us our first star rated player of the year.

That number will likely drop. 247, and most all recruiting services, gives points for just having commits. At 14, you have a lot more than most SBC teams, and likely most other FBS teams. That said I think you'll finish in the top 3 of the class based on the quality of recruits so far.

True but they have a nice group of recruits depending on how they finish out 70 isn't far fetched. This, for sure, should be the best recruiting class out of the he listed.

Had two more commit today. From the sounds of it, we have only 4 more 'ships to fill. Now to hold onto these guys.

8 months and 7 or 8 losses between now and signing day.
