With 28-30 spots in this class, whaddya got for our finish?

I'll play:

QB - Perry, Weldon
RB - Burns, McFarland
WR - Njoku, Harley, Smith/Jeudy, +1 TBD
TE - Polendy, McKitty
OL - Donaldson, Hillery, Dykstra, Gaynor, Slaton, Herbert
DL - Ford, Johnson, Garvin
LB - Steed, Wilder, Jennings
DB - Dallas, Bandy, Carter, Gibson, Edwards, Collier, Dean

Thoughts?

From all reports Jeudy is not realistic. Im going to go ahead and be a **** and plead to people to give it a rest on him.

I think your list seems pretty accurate other then him from everything I am reading and following per multiple sites.
 
Yeah my Smith/Jeudy spot is pretty wishful thinking but I'm holding out lol...
 
QB - Perry, Weldon
RB - Burns, McFarland
WR - Njoku, Harley, +2 TBD
TE - Polendy
OL - Donaldson, Hillery, Dykstra, Gaynor, Slaton
DL - Ford, Johnson, Garvin, +1 of Kool's recent visits
LB - Steed, Wilder, Jennings
DB - Dallas, Bandy, Carter, Gibson, Edwards, Collier, Dean

I don't think Jeudy is really an option and pulling Smith out of SEC territory doesn't sound likely. Hope I am wrong though.

Overall this would be a solid class. Biggest recruit on the board is definitely Kaaya. Him coming back and giving all the QBs another year to develop would be perfect, especially to me as someone who thinks N'Kosi is the QB of the future but probably won't be ready to play Day 1.
 
I hope he commits to Miami but according to Ariz, its 60/40 FSU favored for McKitty. Things aren't looking great for Jeudy and I am still holding my breath for Smith...

However, if we get both Slaton and Herbert (and keeping Donaldson), I would say this is a very solid class despite who commits as our WRs.

I would say you are definitely missing one more DL. Coach Kul has been recruiting some pretty big nationally ranked guys still at DE/DT. I definitely think we land another DL this year. And I don't think we end up with McKitty.

Plus I think we will get another JuCo/Grad Transfer that no one knows about yet. I think we are more likely to get 30 than 28.
 
FINAL ANSWER

QB - Perry, Weldon
RB - Burns, McFarland
WR- Njoku, Harley, Dingle
TE - McKitty, Polendy
OL - Donaldson, Hillery, Dykstra, Gaynor, Slaton
DL - Ford, Johnson, Garvin
LB - Steed, Wilder, Jennings
DB - Dallas, Bandy, Carter, Gibson, Collier

Great list. McFarland and McKitty give us some offensive punch.

I'm not feeling Smith or Jeudy at WR. Not even sure about Harley. We need at least 2 major surprises plus Deejay at WR

Your 6 OL predictions would be monumental.

How about one more LB, e.g. JUCO kid who decommitted from Bama, given that one is now having ACL surgery?

One more DT, e.g. Massive kid from Virginia?

Great DB list.

Well done!

If this happens, phenomenal close by the staff on critical positions that could've prevented us from taking the next step in 2017- DB, OL

No way they put Dallas at WR with our need at CB

Do agree with 2 Kool specials @ DL though

You might be Right... But to balance out the board - I started Dallas there. (FYI he's on record saying that he might try both ways and the coaches are willing to let him) and I kinda want to see the kid with the ball in his hands...

I am interested to see what happens with 2017 WR Racey McMath from Edna Karr HS in New Orleans, LA who has Miami in his Top 4 schools. He is a big fast WR that Miami could be paired with Njoku to create mismatches.
