What's the number? Scholies - Irish Envy

**Irish YJ** · 08-08-2012, 05:36 PM

I've seen several folks talking about the number of scholarships available for 2013. Before today, I was under the impression we had 26 total available, likely holding 3-5 back next year for 5th years, bringing the actual 2013 haul to 21-23. With the 2 losses today, assuming we are now at 28, likely taking 23-25. Can someone confirm. Also, explain the EE implications and rules. I saw someone say UGA would likely take 35 with EEs. Geeesh.
Anyone have fact and data, willing to illustrate as a nice math equation for all of us?

The staff was looking for a class of 23. With Roberson, Carrico and likely Prestwood out, this puts the team at 26. But those numbers change constantly.

There are 28 available scholarships left for 2013. so you have 9 remaining spots after you include the 19 commits we have so far. I say we take 4-6 more 2013 commits and whatever is left, we take 5th years.

As for EE rules... You know how you are only allowed 25 per class? Well, technically Notre Dame can get more than 25 (if they wanted to).

Lets say ND wants to sign 27 2013 recruits... They can put 2 recruits on Early Enroll which would count toward the 2012 recruiting class (We had 17 commits in 2012, so we have room). Leaving 25 commits for the 2013 recruiting class and staying within the rules set by the NCAA.

So no limiation on EEs? Also, where's the WJ spreadsheet you mentioned in the other thread?

I think ND admissions doesn't want any more than 5 early enrollees.

**Irish YJ** · 08-08-2012, 09:38 PM

I expect one more, maybe two more gone by end of season. Not wishing it, just think we will have a defection or two as soon as the depth chart becomes clear, plus one during or immediately following the season.

I'd love to have some EEs at LB and CB.

Yea this seems to be the unwritten rule. It is ok though, 5 is plenty and we won't have a numbers issue.
