That's a nice start with keeping the size advantage going.

Thanks for the info, but this guy has verballed to come here to play bball. Hopefully he will come here and play both, that would be great! But odds are is he is going to go somewhere else to play football.

Our class seems to be shaping up pretty nicely. We are filling areas where we need help now. By my calculations we have 16 schollys available for this years class.

By pretty elementary math that means that if we use up all the scholarships we have we only can take 6 more scholarship commitments Id guess (Someone could enlighten me on the recruiting process if that isnt a totally accurate thought)

Im aware of that. Assuming that all 10 of the guys that we have on that list sign, plus that transfer from Alabama coming in as well as the transfer from JUCO, that actually leaves 4 scholarships available if Im thinking about this correctly

I'm really impressed with some of our O-lineman:

6-6 310 from Alabama
6-5 295
6-5 305
6-6 320

:shock:

And that's before they work with Big Bill

we got a lot of love from WDBJ and WSLS. i can remember when ne never got a mention. forward the video to 1:47 and you will see coach rocco. WSLS interviewed rocco as well, but it is not posted on their website. if anyone wants to fix the link to make it easier, go right ahead.

And use IE and not Firefox for WDBJ videos. Don't ask me why.

Not sure why you guys flock to WDBJ, but DC did a great job covering signing day too with a BIG Ryan Jackson mention.

geez knuckle...don't get your panties in a pinch. the point was we used to not get any mentions on the roanoke stations and now we are getting quite a bit. plus i live in roanoke thus i watch those newscasts more. no one is dissing your beloved SET or DC. im sure he did a good job.

I'm just starting to get the feeling that noone mentions DCs coverage unless they are mad that he didn't cover something.

Anyway this is a great recruiting class with an emphasis again on size. I'm totally on board with Rocco, and can't wait for Aug 30th.
