Dino Babers at podium now for signing day presser. Says Cooper Dawson's announcement with Kingsley Feinman was "gracious."

Dino: Most of this class was done off 4-8 season and W vs. Clemson, and backpart of class was off the 9-3 season.

Dino: If we find a QB we feel is worthy we'll bring him in, but we're not going to force one.

Dino: ~5 spots remain in the class

Dino: We're far away, but we're not that far away. We're 2 4th-quarter stops from having an unbelievable year. "We're very competitive on the field." But depth isn't there yet to compete on a national level.

Dino: We're still at the stage where most of our guys are 3 star athletes we have to develop in weight room and on-field. Whether we have a guy like Andre Cisco, who can contribute right away, we'll see.

Dino: I'm flattered by billboard on I-690.

A tradition unlike any other, the live signing day press conference not loading on any platform for me.

Wish we could hear the freakin' questions

That's usually as irritating as you know what.

How hard is it to pass around a mic? It's not like we're the best communications school in the country or anything.

Interesting he still sees roughly 5 spots still remaining. Looks like there is going to be some attrition.

I turned the volume on my laptop up to 70 and had no issues.

Don't care, but surprised he didn't know whether #44 was retired.

Well, they technically did "un-retire" it a few years ago, but then kinda walked it back somewhat after the initial announcement (all during FHCSMFS's regime), so it's understandable why he might be unclear about that -
I know I am.

I think that IF they found that RB recruit that had "it", that 44 would possibly be an option.

I also think that IF Dino & crew wanted it back in circulation, that JW and Syverud would probably be happy to sign off on it. DOCTOR Gross has left the building.

I think it was rhetorical. He was giving the reporter a hard time because they said it was retired.

I turned it up to 100 and couldn't even hear Dino. Will be listening when I get home.

Was the billboard not paid for by the university?

No it wasn't to my understanding.

Oh, he knows.
