1. Mitchell
2. Gibson (if he qualifies)
3. Stevens
4. Mike Heuerman (he will flip from ND)
5. Worely
6. Dorian Johnson (Pure hope IMHO)
7. Another Big name TBD by UFM. Maybe Jaylon Smith or another flipper.

I don't see Jaylon flipping and frankly, I'd be pretty surprised to see Mike Heuerman flip, but you never know.

I think we close pretty strong with this class. I really believe we get Mitchell and Bell, as well as Quick, Gibson, Worley, and Johnson. I expect we'll make room if another big fish wants to come aboard.

I think it's still early October and a lot will happen before signing day.

I think Dorian Johnson goes to Pitt, Stringfellow stays out west, Bell stays south, and Quick goes to Louisville.

The OT we sign is probably not on our radar right now. Either a flip or a new emerging prospect that has slipped through the cracks thus far. May see two or more from the 'Off Radar' category.

I see us finishing with an OT, 2 WR, 2 LB, and a safety.

1. Mitchell (he's had us out front while taking visits to other schools; says a lot)
2. Shelton Gibson (it's always been Ohio State)
3. D'Agile Longarms (mystery OT)
4. Philliped Linebacker (Trey Johnson, Holland Fisher, Hearns, etc.)
5. Wade Receiver (I'm thinking Stevens, Timmons or possibly Laster)
6. Chris Worley (Obvious back-up plan to Bell)

* I think Munger is out. Waited too long?

... he is comparing other schools to be sure he isn't missing something. Call me a homer but that is certainly how it seems.
And that's a pretty mature approach, one I'd encourage my superstar son to take, if I had one.

Still want Mitchell's little bro in hoop. Kid is a superfreak.

I believe that Laster is being evaluated as a linebacker.

Despite the staff's outlook on committed guys being fair game, I'll just fill the four spots (to 21) remaining with guys who've not pledged anywhere:

Worley
Munger
Laster (as a LB)
Gibson

I'm sure a couple spots will open, though I don't think it will be from a 5th-year guy not renewed. There's only 13 seniors-to-be, and already consists of ten starters, our present nickelback (Corey 'Black' Brown), Guiton and Chris Fields.

Quick and Dorian Johnson seem to be good shots as well...I'm sure there will be other names that pop out of nowhere. I just hope they take more time with their decision than Southward did.
