*** 2021 Recruiting ***

I’ve only heard rumblings from some coaches thinking they have a shot.. haven’t heard anything out of his camp though. I guess I’m just hoping at this point

So apparently gotta keep an eye on Savea, and maybe good news with Dickerson - although even if that works out probably not coming to fruition tomorrow. Are there any other potential surprises people are hearing about for tomorrow?

That early enrollee headcount is huge for next year.

We'll likely need some of those guys at WR/DB to step up right away.

I don’t look at this class and think a lot of them are early impact guys besides Fidone, Grimes, and maybe a few DBs. A lot of these dudes need to gain some serious mass.

I'm not sure we really need the WR/DBs to be anyway. What we need are the guys from the last couple years - Betts, Brown, Nixon, Nance, Houston, and Pola-Gates, Farmer, Newsome, Clark, Gifford - to step into bigger roles. Which I expect them to do. Ideally moving forward we don't need guys to be instant impact players and I think we're finally getting there. Fidone is the only one I'd bet on having a large role, but Grimes and Buford would be my sleepers.

Good luck with Nance & Houston I fully imagine between last class & this 2021 group they will be pretty far down the depth chart. 
 

If they land Savea, Dickerson, & Ho’ohuli I see more impact players there.

Three guys here could definitely alter the final perception of this class. Where it stands is pretty fantastic and if we miss these three I really hope it doesn't completely damper the mood on this haul. Though that would be a very disappointing, but possible end.

I have no expectations for those two, they're just guys who have been here. It would be nice to see one or both of them find a role, but yeah the focus is more on the next wave. Just not sure the new signees will immediately leap past them.

Also a good point, those 3 would all be among our best signees this year. But I think Savea and Dickerson will both need a year or two wherever they go, and Ho'ohuli happens to play a spot where we do have some young guys emerging. But he could easily push for time if we get him signed.

Aren't Houston and Nance RS Sophmores? There is still time there.
