So it's okay if it's a planned saved spot, as opposed to missing on someone on NSD and then having an open spot?

Don't really understand that.

We need a full roster. It will slowly even itself out.
I was specifically talking about the secondary.
Oh. Yeah, I don't hate that idea. Problem is we might not have another take at a different position of need.
Better to be safe than sorry, especially with the potential of a kid like this.
The body frame there too and ability to catch and do something with it after isn't something overly common either in a guy that we would put strictly on defense. It's hard to see him not in red unless he just picks another school instead of us. If we let him walk we better have Blades, Lenoir, and Johnson in the fold. In that case, it'd be hard for me to be too upset with our outcome ha
Feel like they might be holding the spot open for Lenoir. Risky to slow play this guy, but I feel like it's probably worth it. We'll see on Wednesday.
No way! You take a commit from this kid! About a 20% chance or worse we get Blades and Lenoir and probably 50% chance we get neither!!
Pretty sure we're solid on Blades, where are you getting this info from? I like this kid, we've just put a lot of work in on Lenoir for a while now, gotta leave the door open. And he's one of the best corners in the country.

I still take Onyemaobi with those two on board. I may be alone in that with next years scholarships in mind, but I still hold to the fact that this kid is worth it.

Getting Blades and Onyemaobi would give us 21 commits, with Daniels that puts up to 22, IIRC that's the golden number correct?

Yes with spots going over for pleasant surprises (Lewis, Lenoir, Johnson, Verdell).

I was thinking that same thing unfortunately, looking at the bright, it would be great to get all three DB recruits. If faced with the choice, I would take Demo over Guy. Although the DL depth will be lacking.

Guy Thomas would be an OLB for us. It would be rough because he's talented but we'd be fine since he's not a candidate up front anyway.

Here's a thought. We want to take 5 at WR. So we need one more there. It is widely speculated that Joseph Lewis and Randal Grimes are locks to USC. Bryan Thompson has been on he record saying Utah leads. That leaves us with Jeremiah Hawkins. I think Michael Onyemaobi has a little bit more size we need at the WR position that Hawkins and has pretty good film at that position too. Why not take Onyemaobi as our last WR?

 
CB from Bartow.
If the trend continues with Wallace and it is because our top tier guys aren't coming and our coaches know it, I wonder if Onyemaobi would commit early. Part of me thinks he is just waiting to see if its committable or not. If it is now, maybe he'd jump on board sooner. The draw of the national signing spotlight might still be too much I guess.

On a different note, I wonder how many times I've spelled his name wrong on the board already

I don't see us taking him as anything besides a db.

 
He was committed to Cal, Cal fired Dykes he decommits. TCU adds Dykes as a coach. He goes to TCU not a miss for us, just a guy who likes and has a relationship with a coach

 
Mary Pats BOB, can you tell us where you're getting the 20% figure? Is that 20% we get both? Because I've read the chances of getting Blades are close to 100% and 70/30 on Lenoir.
Admittedly, these are purely my gut feelings. I don't know sh#t. We should Take this kid is my only point.
