I have 3 mid-year JUCO signees + 1 early high school signee + 10 verbals who can sign Feb. 1.

Yes you are correct, wonder what size this class will be? Remember the mid year JUCOs can count against LAST year's total if we have that were unused, of course by the end of July the maximum is 85 scholies. I believe I counted 14-15 seniors leaving.

Technical point:

The mid-years MUST count against 2016 scholarships. Can't use a 2017/18 school year scholarship for a player within the 2016-17 school year.

IF there is no available 2016-17 scholarship for the h.s. kid who enrolled early, he has to pay his own way for winter semester. Think that is a 'green shirt' or 'blue shirt' or something. Starts early and then signs in February for 2017/18 school year scholarship.

That said, I don't see a problem. We had scholarships for Winston, Justin N., etc who would have taken unused 2016/17 scholarships.

So we only have 11, plus a bunch of dead weight still on the roster. Plenty of room to add 10 more if we were recruiting like the PJ Fleck's of the world.
