2026 National Signing Day: Dec 3-5

That’s why leaks offer was pulled I believe

Well, Fran said we would surprise some people next week. Mission accomplished.

The sky is falling! Relax Arch. We have a decent WR group already and added another solid Juco WR today in Merriweather.

And no inside info, but I still have a feeling Russell ends up Orange.

I really liked DL Kordae Houston when he committed. I wonder what the delay is? He had recent offers from Vanderbilt and Kansas State. Already had offers from Texas A&M, Miami, LSU, Houston, Georgia Tech, ASU, Cal and Houston.

How does relate to despising what you can't have? Haha.

Agreed. This is a player we really need to close on. Kid has a good offer sheet at a major position of need

Pretending that something else offsets what you really wanted all along is a cousin to despising what you can't have.

This is such a good looking class - tip of the cap to Fran and staff for bringing in this group. I love seeing their offer sheets compared to some past signing days …

Houston is a big get, immediate impact player

I fully understand that but my post was independent of what was going on with Russell. Just thought Merriweather was a good addition.

sometimes there's a 24 hour hold before funds clear the bank

Strong performance in this thread

If you sign right away you get a tweet. If you're a 5-star, wait until Friday and sign at the last minute, you'll get *a lot* of Tweets and probably some callouts on SportsCenter.

Flipping or not (I think not), it's smart to wait when you've got the attention.

We used to compete against the likes of Tulsa, directional michigans , Bowling Green, etc. And rave about who we got. Those days are over, thankfully

Need a couple more QBs. When does the portal
Open?

 

[HRE Otto IV]

If we are not losing anyone, surprised that we would add a JUCO WR. Do we really need to add 5 WRs to a team that has a bunch of WRs already?

Next year we will have these 5 guys, Samuel, Cook, Hornsby, Williams, Russell, Johnson, Gill, Ross, Thomas. That is 14 guys.

Only 2 LBs? We are in major need for quality and depth there. Are we going to play a 3-1-7 next year?

I missed three other WRs. We also have Daniels, McFadden, and Wilfong. So make that 17 WRs currently. I have to think we are losing 3-4 guys. That or we are going 5 wide every play.

Who knows how many of those receivers will be back next year?

Ross is likely gone, this is probably his replacement.

We are going 6 wide. No QB and 5 offensive linemen. Can't be much worse.

Plus, a 3-0-8 defensive alignment.

Someone said Ross was likely gone plus maybe Cook and one other.
