I really don't mind that on this one. He is in the bottom half of the top 7 or 8 WRs in the state IMO. However, we didn't think he should get an offer before coming to camp and may have not have received an offer. We are pretty deep in that area and targeting bigger guys like Seals Jones, etc...OOS That could play into our favor with the other higher coveted in-state WRs seeing one of their potential spots being taken by one of their own at Bama. Plus we are after 2 guys who I think are better in AL. Cox is one of them and I heard was talking up LSU to other prospects at the Bama camp 2 weeks ago.
I think we see Duke Riley take an early offer from Miss St. I think he saw the writting on the wall that he isn't going to get offered at least not at this point.
we have a small group of seniors on the squad; how large would you reaonably expect the next recruiting class to be?
Small group of seniors but attrition is attrition. You'll have the natural transitions like transfers or guys that just don't hack it anymore. You'll have your seniors. Then you'll have guys like Eric Reid, TM7, Big Sam, Keke Mingo, Chris Faulk, and even Mettenberger if he blows it up (just to name a few), who will have good opportunities to go in the draft. I'm sure we'll sign the usual 22-25 guys.
I am thinking the lower end of that. Maybe 20 but as you said that could change depending on attrition. Defeneitly don't see a full 25 which will hurt for the star gazers.
