The Blazers are targeting recruits who can enroll in January. (JC Midyear transfers)

Translation - we're waiting to see how much money we get out of all the teams coming & going to see who we can afford to get if anyone.

More like waiting to see who is left off Arkansas' staff that couldn't get a better job

We could use an extra coach on the road but if CGM isnt worried neither am I. Some JuCo's I've seen on UAB's radar.

LB Tony Johnson 6-4 250 Southwest C.C. Dec Grad
LB Nick Thomason 6-1 230 Northwest C.C. Dec Grad
DE Ronald Fuller 6-5 255 Blinn College per ESPN
OT Jon Kight 6-6 270 East Mississippi U La La commit per scout

Wow Picking up those guys on D would be a serious upgrade for our Rush D in the LB corps and a possible legitimate edge rusher.

Johnson committed out of high school, but didn't qualify. Looks like he's beefed up a little.

Yep and I would not limit it to Arkansas. Their will be plenty of Assistant Coaches looking for a job once the dust settles on the Coaching Carousel

A 6'4" linebacker ? Sign him quick before the SEC teams know we have him.

I bet we sign a minimum of two quarterbacks with one being a JUCO.

I also bet we lose another assistant.

Sounds like somebody knows something...hmmm?

I agree strongly on both

Nearly every program signs at least one QB every year since the QB is often the best athlete on most high school teams. If we can get good athletes in for spring practice, the coaches can then place them where they will do the team the most good.

One of the FBHC's hardest jobs is deciding on who to replace on his staff in order to improve results. That is where he makes or breaks his own future.

Who the other former Blazer? QB I've seen no other QB we've been in on except the one from Spain Park who is Mr Football I think now. JuCo wise I hope its whoI think it is.

Dang I thought he was high on Furman some weeks ago. Well CGM flipped Gordon last year if he wants him he could get him.
