Time to make a hypothetical recruiting class.
MacVittie-QB
Shaw-RB
Hypothetical 2 star from the south or late offer-RB
Mathews-WR
Hescock-TE
Ford-G
Low Profile OL-OL
Low Profile OL-OL
Gilbert- DE/DT
Ron George-LB
Pugh-LB
Coleman-CB
Hamlin-S
Butler-DB
Hudson-S
Long-DT
Wheeler-DT
Tim Jackson-ATH
James Jackson-ATH
-------------------------------
Now, this assumes an absolute best case scenario in the WPIAL (minus a Sanders flip), and assumes we keep Butler (less likely each day it seems).
The only 4 star is Hamlin, with Pugh, Hudson, Butler, and maybe Wheeler as the best candidates to move up to 4 star status.
The class needs a lot of work on the OL, at RB, and DE (which I'm sure in reality they will add a DE or 2.)
Would you be happy?
To me, and not to sound negative, but other than keeping the best of the WPIAL here, this seems like more of the same. Not criticizing, as I'm excited about the way coach finished the last class (other than losing two guys to PSU), but this class doesn't exactly get me giddy. Now, it is very possible that coach could do better and I'm sure we are taking more than 19, but the lack of interest from OL and DL players has me concerned right now.
