They count for this years class. Previously 3 could be backcounted if the prior class was under 25 but new SEC anti-oversigning rules prohibit it. Solid 25 limit, no more back counting.

You must also always be at or under 85 total 'ships

So given that you will lose kids through academics, transfers, etc. it would probably be a huge mistake to not take 25 in this years class, correct? I see where some posters in other threads are questioning signing some of the kids just for the sake of filling out your 25 for this year. Not saying that I know enough about the recruits to know if it is a stretch on some of them but just given the facts it seems a must to always fill out your 25 slots.

Big Kat do you have a link to where it says backcounting is no longer allowed?

Previously the limit was 28, and several schools signed more than that because some could count back. I don't see how changing the limit from 28 to 25 changes it, but I may be interpreting it incorrectly.

As for LSU, I don't think we have room for anyone to count back.
