My guess now is Julian Love (I know going way out on a limb here). I think we'll see 4-5 by the end of spring practices.

Yeah that is definitely the best guess right now. After that I am at a loss. Maybe Okwara?

Those two come to mind. Gotta keep an eye on Josh King and when he sets his time-table up. Feel extremely good about where we stand with him.

That is great to hear. After reading about how good of a wrestler he is in his thread, he has become my number one want for the class. Hope we get him!

Love is in the fold. Anyone have a sense of who jumps on board next?

The safety from Illinois whose waiting on an offer coming back next weekend forget his name. Also weren't there a lot more guys on campus seems like very minimal information.

So, JR Day.

Kind of a big deal. 3 commits. Not too shabby.

What about maybe Corley? That would be sweetness. Feeling much better about Robertson but still not ready to say I think we get him yet. Really like AJ Taylor's game too. Lots of really interesting names out there this cycle.

Roderick Campbell this weekend is my pick. Another possibility would be Kenney Lyke is he is offered.

Thought Lyke was a sparty lean?

I think we made quite the impression last weekend and he's coming back this weekend (cancelling PSU and Pitt visits) in hopes of getting an offer. I think if we offer we move to the top of his list.

If we landed both of those kids to go along with Love, how many more DB's would we go after? Would really love to land a high profile safety and cornerback this year.

The number thats going around is 5 DB's in total. Whether thats 3 CB's and 2 S's or the other way around I think it depends on who wants in. Right now I could see an early class of CB's Love, Campbell and Hamlin. With Lyke at S and looking for another S to pair with him.

I think we're in a good spot with Hamlin following this visit as well and he is a damn good CB.

That would be sweet! Would love to land Hamlin. I think Lyght will real in some big-time kids at the position and getting Hamlin onboard would be a great start!

Just to add that if we land those 4 DB's plus a higher ranked safety to boot, absolute home run in the secondary.

Thank you sir.
Would love to get those 2 locked up and then focus on a few stud DBs at the top of the board.

So hopefully today we land Okwara, then after him I'm interested to see what Angeline is going to do next weekend, and then Eichenberg will be deciding soon after his vist to Columbus. Is there anyone we should be keeping an eye on for the spring game besides Angeline? Even if not, with those three looking good, things are certainly heating up!

I think that's about right but there is always a curveball out of no where in the summer

Okwara, Angeline, Eichenberg

Then what about Bredeson? Have there been any more rumors on players with strong interest? Any of the local DEs committing early?

I think the Fort Wayne Austins are announcing in June

Can we just have: Ben Bredeson, Josh King, Liam Eichenberg, Auston Robertson, Austin Mack, Damar Hamlin, Julian Okwara, Cary Angeline, Roderick Campbell and Kenney Lyke

None of those are absolute reaches but I doubt some of my most coveted prospects in that list end up in the golden helmet.
