Soooo i think i know what the author might have meant...
There could arise a situation where even though we have 3 remaining recruiting spots, we would be unable to take in more players IF we were at the 85 scholarship limit. In this scenario, Kiner would be out (-1 scholarship), we would then be at 84 scholarships, and we can afford to pick up someone from the TP.
HOWEVER, i really doubt we are at the 85 man limit. we had sub 40 scholarship players for the bowl game and i dont think we've given out 45+ scholarships since then. Also, the staff has said many times they are actively looking to use those three spots, which, if the article meant the scenario above was true, then they staff is hand in hand looking for new players while looking to cut current scholarship players. That would be messed up

ETA: That didn't come out too salty at the end, did it?
