It is kind of hard, at least for me, to follow FB recruiting this time of year, but is Gerrit Prince still in play?
Also, I think it is wise to hold say 2 schollies POST spring ball once the staff know what everyone can do, who left, who is hurt, and which mid-year JUCOs may, or may not, be the answer to unmet needs.
I also work from the premise that a true freshman isn't expected to contribute. If a few do that is a good thing, but I don't like the logic, "We have a hole at say OT and we have good frosh OLs coming in so they can fill it..."
Again, it is my philosophy: Until a recruit gets on campus and puts on the pads and the staff can see what he can do, he is still pretty much an unknown quantity. Press clippings at that point don't mean much...
EDIT: I do, seemingly, waver from that with QBs which I think are easier to observe because their game is so much different than say an OL or DB.
