I figure we should put them together in this thread in a nice, neat fashion.

Stan Herring, OL/DL
Jamal Giddens, LB

Nichols was one of five Commodores to make their college decision official. The others were highly touted lineman Vinston Painter (Virginia Tech), linebacker Jamal Giddens (Liberty), lineman Travis Branche (Virginia State) and running back Carnell Cooke (Carson-Newman College).

Not that I am aware of at this point.

Just 20 more minutes and we'll have all of the details.

For the record, G-W and Stony Brook still haven't released their classes yet either.

They generally post the class on the official site as soon as the news conference begins.

Do you mind linking it as soon as you see it?

I haven't been able to see the top stories on there since they redid it.

Looks like a pretty good class, almost evenly divided between Off and Def. and good diversity of positions. Seems to be a well planned out strategy regarding positions.
GO FLAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think everybody just clicked on that link at once. It's very very slow.

Brandon Saunders transfer from Northeastern.

How many years of eligibility does he have left? He has to sit out one year right?

Saunders: http://gonu.com/football/saunders.shtml

He redshirted this past year and would have three years of eligibility left which he may lose one since he probably has to sit out a year.

6'0" 185

Northeastern's coach on Saunders before last season:
We have a couple of young men that we think are going to be pretty good. Brandon Saunders is one of them. He has vertical speed. So we’re not in bad shape there.

This is what we were talking about in the other thread. If Northeastern does drop football then he should be instantly eligible. Otherwise he'll have sit out 2008.

I was reading through AGS and someone said that NE will be keeping football.

Well, I guess we just have to hope then.
