wadc45;1190204; said:Here is my updated class, once again assuming we get to 27:
QB - none...not enough spots
RB - Jaamal Berry
RB - Carlos Hyde
RB/WR - Jordan Hall
FB - Adam Homan (like others, not rulling out DL or LB)
FB - Zach Boren
WR - Duron Carter
WR - Chris Fields
WR - James Jackson
TE - Reid Fragel
OL - Marcus Hall
OL - Jack Mewhort
OL - Corey Linsley
OL - Chris Watt (I am still leaning towards Watt being in this class, but I would gladly take John Prior)
DT- John Simon
DT - Pat Muldoon or Corey Adams or Tyron Ezell (my gut is Muldoon goes to ND and the staff turns all their attend to Adams and Ezell...first come, first serve)
DT - Adam Bellamy
DE - Melvin Fellows (Illinois insiders still think he visits Champaign)
DE - Jonathan Newsome
LB - Storm Klein
LB - Jordan Whiting
LB - Dorian Bell
CB - CJ Barnett
CB - Dominic Clarke (I think he could be a great nickel back early on, much like Chekwa)
S - Jamie Wood
S - Vlad Emilien
S - Bradley McDougald
ATH - Corey Brown
ATH - Justin Green
BOLD = offered
BOLD & RED = committed
No McGee and no 2nd TE...I know the staff seems adamant about taking 2 TEs but I just don't see how it can work...
wadc45;1190204; said:3 for 4 so far...we'll see if Brown wraps it up.
masterj26;1190429; said:Updated newest two commits.. Your list has 28 not 27, who gets left on the outside looking in?
ek is that you? (hockey joke)My one source thinks we take 28...if it ends up at 27 I say the 2nd TE gets left off, although I heard some remotely positive things about Sims earlier today...

What is your best guess on who would be the 3rd QB in 2009. That is very dangerous to have only two on your roster IMOwadc45;1190434; said:My one source thinks we take 28...if it ends up at 27 I say the 2nd TE gets left off, although I heard some remotely positive things about Sims earlier today...

wadc45;1190461; said:Orhian Johnson would be my guess...
The math is pretty easy...if the number is 27:
22 verbals
Holding spots for McGee, Newsome, Hall, Emilien and Berry...
If the number is 28:
Same list plus one of Ezell, Adams, Muldoon, Banks...
That is my best guess...and I emphasize the word "guess".

DB: McGee
ATH: J. Hall

Yes, I think it will matter in 2009 with all the talent that will be on that team. I don't know how good of a QB Johnson was in high school but I would think that they would want someone who was a pretty skilled QB to be a backup on a team with that much talent.westbuck04;1190455; said:If you're down to your third quarterback, does it really matter who it is? ANY team (except maybe USC) is gonna lose some games if they're playing their third-string quarterback...do we really need to use a scholarship on someone who probably would do no better if forced into action as a freshman then say, Ohrian Johnson?
