I would only think it's fun because we hadn't really had the chance to do it. I'll be happy with any bowl game that wants us. More concerned with injuries at the moment.
That said I'm back looking at recruiting, think I see some possible blueshirts on the horizon potentially.
Educate me please: whats a blueshirt?
Blueshirting is a way for programs to get around the 25 yearly scholarship limit. Basically you can put an incoming freshman on scholarship when they officially enroll for the fall but count them against next years recruiting class as long as he wasn't technically a recruit, meaning he didnt take an official visit and was not offered a letter of intent from your school, and didnt sign one with anyone else. I believe the player has to redshirt his freshman year as well.
So, It counts against next years totals, well that's good, if you can't get a player for next year right.
