Are there any surprises? Last minute flips good or bad?

Looks like Washington State is making a last minute attempt to poach Chau Smith...

Recruiting is a dirty business...

Well, this is nice. 13 3 Star recruits between signed and committed thus far. Not sure we've ever had that before? Last year's class was very solid with 11, and that was after all was said and done too.

I feel pretty good about the O linemen that we have. They mash. We should be stacked for years to come there

Keshaun Taylor has really fantastic wr skills. Amazing hands and body control in the redzone. I counted 3 one handed back shoulder fade catches. He has sideline control that reminds me of Chris Carter.

We r moving him to defense. Interesting...

I know most here don't put any value into recruiting rankings, but Bohl's classes have been trending upwards the past few years.

If the rankings mean anything, we should start to see at minimum quite a bit more depth of talent. This class looks good on paper. Congrats to the coaches; there should be some talent to mold.

Insults are the last resort of fools with a crumbling position.

Oluwaseyi Omotosho is a gawd damn freak of nature. Holy poop, 4.5 speed, plays hybrid like Von Miller. Just nasty explosion.

Does anyone have insight on Chau Smith? He’s on the official signed list but I have seen nothing official from him or the twitter verse.

I watched his tape and I am very, very, very excited for him. He looks like a missile flying around the field killing people. Bohl said he can be better than Granderson :twisted:

What really matters is obviously how you develop players, but the star ratings are there for a reason. I like seeing the trend in more highly rated players signing with us.

Here’s an article on Chau’s last minute offers:

On a side note: We had a WR decommit a few weeks ago who signed with ASU.

He still has the Wyoming Commit pinned to his twitter. We will see I guess.

What stands out to me - - we didn't sign any receivers...

...despite losing basically all of the starters to graduation (Austin Conway, John Okwoli, Rocket Ismail Jr.)

...which makes me think that the coaches trust the young guys already in the program...but if so, why didn't we see much of them in games this year?

We have to get Levi Williams and Sean Chambers some help. I am hopeful there are a few gems at the WR position still out there.
