Our ranking this year will be low but that could be okay. I wonder how many PWOs we get this year?

I like how things are going. With the PAC12 not playing, we are more visible and becomes a better choice. Small class but all of them should contribute. No need to reach for a kid who is a maybe performer. Each should be a quality player.

There has been a lot of moaning about the rankings of our classes. I don't have any stats but it seems that a large percentage of our recruits are panning out. Plus PWOs who are contributing. I hope with the waying we are playing that we finish this class strong.

You would think so. It looks fun to play on this team. If you got talent, you will play. The defense finally looks attractive to recruits. Plus our competition is not playing so they are out of mind. The media is raving about us. Plus it looks like the draft will be good to us this year.

Keep it going.

There is a bit of a scholarship crunch still with returning missionaries coming home early from covid and the large recruiting class of 2 years ago. My list shows 19 scholarship offer players who either are returning from missions for 2021, have come home early and aren't on this year's team yet, or delayed enrollment from last year's class (not serving mission). I don't know how many of this year's class are delaying school for a mission. Walk-on competition is also pretty fierce with 15 walk-on offers who are home or will be home for next year. This means the overall score for the recruiting class may not be super high as they aren't signing players in volume (10 current commits). My hope is this increased competition leads to better performers and better results.
