23 committments for 2014. Harris and Paris were EEs so they count towards last year...

Meaning we can sign four EEs this upcoming year in addition to the 25 allotted?

TIA

Don't know if this is the NSD hangover or if the feelings are genuine, but many seem to indicate that next year's class could be as solid as this years, with a HEAVY emphasis on the OL/DL.

EEs don't automatically count to the previous year.

EE's only count towards the previous years class if there was room in the previous years recruiting class. I believe we had a full class last year and they all enrolled. So probably not going to be able to count any back in this class.

Not exactly. The main number is 85. We have a big senior class next year. Players graduating, transferring, or declaring for the NFL before the start of school in January will open up the EE spots for next years class. IMO we could have 5-10 EE's next year if everything works out right.

WRT EEs counting back to this year, the controlling limit is the 25. The 85 can limit the overall number of EEs, it will not come into play wrt counting back. Since we signed 23, we have at least 2 spots available.

It is possible we could have 2 more if the 2 EEs this year were able to be counted back. To know this you have to know how the spots for Fehoka (sp) and Avery Peterson (I think that is who it was) were handled when they failed to qualify and entered a semester late. If we had to count their signing LOIs and their subsequent entry separately, then our 2 EEs couldn't have been counted back. If not, then they could be counted back.
