Dead Period is Over

The recruiting dead period(which is basically a prohibition against in person/campus visits at this point) is officially over and the next eighteen days until the next one will be memorable. Coaches are hitting the road recruiting, I suggest following them to get an idea of whats going on.

You'll see where they are. The other part of being a recruiting junkie is reading between the lines, always look at recent follows, mutual follows and likes. Have I mentioned following recruiting is a sickness?

Anyway on to recruiting.

Probable

DL:3* Austin Faoliu - Kid blew up with receiving multiple P5 offers after his film got out visiting this weekend and announcing next weekend at the Polynesian Bowl. - All signs point to being your next commit.

DL:4* Taquon Graham - Currently committed to Texas, also plans to vistit TCU and OU before NSD, like Philips long committed players taking trips late should make Texas fans nervous. I think Graham flips from Texas so the question is now is it TCU or OU?

LB: 4* Tyler Taylor -  Pushing hard for him, we shall see. I think OU wins out on NSD tho


¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - I have no idea what's going on.

OL"4* Stephan Zabie- Starting to have my doubts he has a commitable offer at this point

DB: 3* Evan Fields -  OU never showed interest  


DL:3*  Josh Rogers-  I kind of thought he'd pull the trigger for us already, quiet kid who is tripping to SEC schools late.


Not Happening

DT: 5* Marvin Wilson - FSU/LSU bound

DB:4*  Latavious Brini - All about the U

WR: 4* James Robinson IV - Would be surprised if he leaves Florida 

DL: 4* K'Lavon Chaisson - LSU/Texas


Scattered Thoughts

The class wants to end with 2-3 DL, another DB, another WR. So that would take us in the range of 28 at minimum. 

There is likely to be last minute offers  at DB and at WR . 



If you want some knowledge from people who know a hell of a lot more than i do, and actually cover this stuff for a living look into Sooner Scoop, Sooners Illustrated.  I do not have an active membership to either site right now, but I highly recommend either website, none of those guys will bs you
