Got a bunch of other commits too, I think we'll be very happy on Wednesday.
I'll work on getting all of my info together probably tomorrow so we can all review who has committed now. I will leave you with this though....this kid committed today...he's a RB from Cookville, Tennessee, Rivals 2-star. He's 5'11", 210 lbs, and built like a tank already. I can only imagine what a year of D1 strength and conditioning will do for him.

Looks like we all wil be pleasantly surprised on Wednesday. Things are getting pretty exciting. When is the last time had a recruit like that at a skill position?

Watched his hudl highlights. Geesh I know they are highlights so they will only out the best plays but it seems like he was never tackled without making it to the end zone. Does he play lesser competition? I just don't get how a guy averaging nearly 10 yards a carry with those kind of physical attributes doesn't get picked up by fbs school.

Can't wait to see these guys play. Was worried about how many commits have flipped but seems that the new staff is having no problem replacing hem with more talented kids.

Well said! Like I said earlier...they always have a plan B! These are players that were recruited by them and late in the game I might add! They are players that they want and will fit their needs!

Goes to show you that when you coach for 34 years in other parts of the country you will develop relationships with coaches that want to work for you and who also have their own connections. This is a good staff and they do have those connections. I'm sure there will be a lot more to excitement on Wednesday!

It's a GREAT day to be a Leatherneck!

I think this maybe a high quality low quantity group which is what we need especially on the defensive side of the ball.
