from just SC and all rank in the top 8 (all 4 stars or better) in the state according to 247.. throw in spain, berrios, hand and derrell scott from out of state that we are just high on right now and you can see that the 2014 class will be one of the best in recent memory.

also GA has a bunch of highly rated prospects so hopefully we can grab some of those and we should have a highly rated class
Don't forget instate Dlineman Poona Ford.
We are listed as his favorite.

To me, any time you have the chance to get a potential impact DT (or O Lineman), you have to try and get them.

We've seen our success increase proportionately with our line play. Not every player pans out, some leave, and injuries happen...so a little insurance doesn't hurt.

OVs are not a problem - we averaged less than 30 OVs per year even before the sanctions. The staff does not believe in bringing in recruits for OVs unless we have a really good chance of getting them. In the past, we had some bad experiences with kids visiting just for fun and bad-mouthing us/trying to recruit for other schools. So we have to have a warm and fuzzy feeling before we offer an OV and never come close to using up our allotment.

Which is also a reason that our recruiting budget is so low - don't have to buy a lot plane tickets and steak dinners.

Agree with this and don't see it being a huge problem for us.

We need to stop accepting commitments right now if we can only take 15 next season. I think we'll take full classes both years.

Keep your eye on Zeek Rodney as well. The HS coaches I know up here in Rock Hill have great things to say about him.

If Zeek were a couple of inches taller, he'd have schools lined up out the door for him.

Say the # is 15, give me these guys:
QB: Barker
RB: Scott
WR: Davidson, Googer/Berrios
TE: Crosby, Ritchie
OL: Staley, Spain
DE: Moten
DT: Wideman, Ford/Pringle
OLB: Allen Williams, Miller
MLB: Blue
DB: Smalls

Obviously, guys like Hand, Humphrey, and Tabor are oversigns so we will see what happens.

Just my opinion on who we should take etc.

Article on 247 about LB Miller from Spring Valley. Doesn't sound too encouraging for SC. Wants to play in a 3-4, apparently. Would suck to lose out on another legacy kid at LB.
