I wonder how many spots in the class we would like to leave open for after early signing? 

We landed some nice 4 stars last year

I don't think they'd leave too many IF they can get most of their top targets to sign early. I don't think they'll sign anyone who is a stretch. My bet would be about 3-4 open at most.

I haven’t heard about which guys plan to sign at the early signing date, but I would guess most will.

After that it will be flipping season for Frost and I’m sure he will save some room for them to work.

I would guess they're not "saving" any spots.  You want all your commits to sign.

But considering we are probably still looking for 8-9 guys, I doubt we will be full on the early day.

How would you people who pay a lot of attention compare this class to last year’s so far?

Last year was obviously a scramble — did that cause us to go after whoever we could find and miss some areas of need which we’re fixing now?

Idk. I'm guessing Frost will hope to have 26 guys signed by ESD and then go to town on some gamechangers with our oversign spots for 2019 and working on 2020 and beyond dudes.

I guess I don't really think so.  It'll be tough to know for awhile yet.  We were short receivers and we hit that position hard.  We were also short defensive backs but we took four.  And we grabbed several JUCO guys at positions of need.  So I think we still hit the positions we needed to pretty well.  Just a question of if the guys we were able to get will turn into contributors.  But that's the question with every class.

Biggest thing that hurt was that was the first year of the early signing period.  It really cut down on the time the new staff had to work on guys and then cut way down on the options for January.  I think there were at least a couple more guys that they really like that they probably could have gotten with another six weeks to work on them.  But that's the breaks.
