Great shape with Mingo and Tahj.

Good to great shape with Randle and Sentimore.

Good shape with Kelly.

Need some help with Montgomery, XSF, Myles, Jarvis Jones, or Richardson.

Oh and Benton is visiting this weekend and should be reporting in June, but may or may not sign a LOI Wednesday, conflicting reports on that.

Thanks RAT dude! What about Duplessis, Stinson and Lacy? Are they gone pecans? Anyone else possible as of right now? How many more can we take for '09?

What is the reason for Benton to not sign on NSD? On another thread, a poster said that he would be joining Randle, Downs, and the other Bastrop guys at their ceremony.

I also wonder if we are waiting on Jarvis's decision before (if?) we give Tahj Jones a CO.

Thanks.

Duplessis is already enrolled in school, Stinson committed to Bama today and Lacy will likely do the same. Total class should be between 27 and 29.

Just that hes not in school anywhere and has already signed 2 LOIs before. He still might, but I have also read somewhere he might not.

Supposedly Tahj has a CO already and is a done deal. If Jarvis wants a spot things could get more complicated, but that is a longshot right now.

Any LBs coming in who can contribute right away on D as opposed to special teams? Also, I had thought Duplessis was in school, but didn't see him on the TD commit list...perhaps I missed him. Is he an '09 or grayshirt? Thanks again...a LOT!!!

Kevin Minter might be a candidate....

Kevin Minter

And there are a few folks that expect Ryan Baker to play a much bigger role.

I will be PISSED if Baker doesnt see some PT this year...

We are in EXCELLENT shape with Randle, dont worry about that.

Sentimore is here now, and having a great time.

Jarvis Jones is also here, i dont know how his visit is going.

Benton is here, but I dont know if he is elligible or not, I havent really payed attention to him. Its getting kind of ridiculous that he cant qualify...

What bothers me about Benton is the talk about him maybe not qualifying until fall camp (not by summer camp).

Just don't why after all this time he couldn't get his house in order well before June.

ETA: Thanks again GDT for the updates...

I'm of the belief and understanding that he's been working out quite a bit and is even more developed at this point.

Academically good or not the guy reminds me a lot of Chad Ocho Cinco...who in fact had to go the Juco route before making it into D1 football.

No, I don't believe that. According to the coach at Hargrave he essentially had his grades in order at the end of the spring semester in 2008 when he just walked out. Then he was supposedly on track to get cleared and enrolled for this spring semester.

There's definitely more to the story....

He has to sign one. I think the confusion is whether or not the recruiting services are going to consider him a signee for their ranking purposes.
