Obviously Hoping we land Jones Jr, to add to Coleman… do we have an idea of how many WR we will want to take this year ?
I think they will take 1 more if it’s the right kid. I know there’s another receiver from Florida they want.

Okay with 2. Will take the right third. Gayles is one of those type of WRs. Not sure who else is.

Hope we land him! I'll never forget that night back in 2003 when his Pops went off against Pitt in Pittsburgh! We had a whole crew there, and EVERYONE (Pitt kids included) left that stadium impressed with J. Jones that night!

Hope? Sounds like it's a done deal to me.

Don’t mind this change. There’s plenty of crack to get us through June 12 and this gives staff more time with those targets.

Think Gayles is there that weekend now too. At least on 247 it says that. Florida Dame…just a few days from going public too

Honestly after last year’s class and getting Porter in the portal that would be a home run class for WR.
I even understand the rationale of staying at 2 if Gayles goes elsewhere. Can monitor senior breakouts but no need to reach just to take 3

I don't know. I think 3 is the minimum any year for WR. Of course, they would need to be good enough. Wish we kept more high level options open if Gayles goes elsewhere.

I’m in the same boat. I prefer 3. But we shouldn’t take 3 just to take 3. Last year’s class and transfers gives us some leeway

I trust the staff on this one. They brought in 5 in the 2026 class as true freshmen and we've already heard 2-3 are immediate hits. Plus we added 2 in the portal: Quincy has 4 years of eligibility and Graham has 3, I think?

If we sign 2, that's 9 players over two years. 3 gives us 10 and drastically elevates the floor/ceiling of the room.

Moved down a couple slots to #124 by 247 but still top 75 in the composite rankings.

I’m telling you, stack that week with all the guys committing on McAphee. I want to see a commitment a day with a recruit putting a ND hat on over the likes of Texas A&M, Miami, and Oregon. Would be a massive message to the world
Jones, Sesay (over LSU will do), Parks, Henderson, Simien.
