I know there is significant fudging with heights of recruits, players and NFL draft prospects (at least until the combine), but all of our current commitments are listed as 6'0" or taller.

The only guy I suspect may be closer to 5'10" than 6' even is Jalen Mills, however. Lamar Louis may be a shade under 6', but not much - that means pretty much 100% of the class is in the 6' class.

I can't recall a class where we didn't have at least a couple of guys who were much closer to "average" height. Obviously that's a trend and kids and players are getting taller, but I found it curious.

So you are saying this is a "Goliath" recruiting class?

No, he's saying that getting all these guys to commit was a tall order.

Head and shoulders above what it looked like a month ago.

I'm saying that next year's class will have to clear a high hurdle, by comparison.

There's a big demand for players like that. The coaches speak very highly of them.

Never fails. Our recruiting never comes up short in the end.

The Chicken Littles of this board were wrong.

This class measures up.

They were trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

Or was it a molehill out of a mountain?
