Message: [QUOTE="Mooch82, post: 5345762, member: 736"] Eh - maybe yes, maybe no. Tom is quoted as saying our recruiting strategy is to go after one major blue chip kid each class, and he seems to fit the bill here (despite Landrew rising significantly lately). His game is perfect for Hurley and he could easily play with Landrew and County. Not that he has to use 15, but he went out of his way to take the full 15 this year and id expect that to probably be the case again next year. We’re losing 5 guys for sure - and I’d be surprised if the final number of departing players isn’t at least 8. Seems like the goal would be to take 3 guys this fall and then fill out the roster in the spring with a couple transfers and roster fillers. He’s already visited - so the level of effort to stay in touch and do a home visit or two isn’t that big. I’d personally be disappointed if we threw in the towel for him at this juncture, unless he’s asking for just a ridiculous bag. [/QUOTE]
