Rate the Early Signing Class...

[corpjet]

I would give the class a B-, no Sampson and no RB's....whats your grade?

 

[Trueblue25]

A

Top qb prospect on our board committed
2 of top 5 NYS athletes signed.
Several linebackers with good measurables
DB’s that wont look like smurfs against FSU/Miami
Wide Receivers that’ll put us back in the top 25
Solid OL recruits, including the empire state building


Just need some dlinemen/de’s and we’re chillin. No reason to believe the rb’s arent signing in feb.

 

[sufandu]

I'll go B.

Getting Sampson and Jordan signed today would have made it an A for me.

 

[PAcuse]

I'll go A
All signs point to the 2 RBs will sign with us
This staff knows how to close out and I'm sure we will knock out the last few spots with kids in positions of need

 

[Trueblue25]

Not going to get upset about only signing 3 of 4 four stars, I think we’ll somehow manage.

 

[MaxwellCuse]

The Sampson decommitment is a big disappointment and dropped this early signing group from an A to a B+ (with the addition of Chance Amie). I'm not worried yet about our two RB verbals from what the veterans on the recruiting sub-forum are saying. I think we'll be okay -- actually more than okay -- come February.

 

[LeMoyneCuse]

B+

Trill Williams may have been the gem of the class even if Sampson had signed.
Hendrix seems like a player.
Lots of good athletes who will benefit from a redshirt year. Hopefully, we have the depth to do it.

This. It's an A from me as well

B

 

[orangeinohio]

Also - I'm relieved there were no (apparent) losses related to Sean Lewis' departure.

 

[SUforme]

Solid B.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I give it a 28.

 

[Orangejet]

B+ for we filled many needs. Sign the RB's, add a few JUCO's /Grad players and I give CUSE an A.

 

[dasher]

B This grade isn't for who we MIGHT SIGN in Febuary. It's who we did sign yesterday.

 

[HOFCeluck]

A. I'm over Sampson.

 

[OrangeinBoston]

247Sports has SU rated #45 in a virtual tie with Duke and ahead of Pitt, UVA, GT, WF & BC. That's a major improvement.

Needs:
1. Sampson - although the probability is low as the star power programs will now be all over him like flypaper.
2. The two RBs. We all saw what a really good RB can do for an offense like BC's otherwise piece of crap.
3. Need some DLs, particularly DEs. Always need DLs.

 

[NKR1978]

B+, just because losing a 4* is tough for us.

 

[FasterCuse]

If we're grading on a curve and comparing this class to past classes, I think Dino this year gets a solid A- to A even without Sampson

 

[rrlbees]

B

Sampson is not coming here. Zero chance

 

[Trueblue25]

For who we got yesterday i’m still at an A.

Hendrix
White
Williams

Three 4 stars.

How many four stars have we gotten and kept past signing day in the past 5 years combined?

Also two of these were home grown products. Imagine the stiffies this board would have popped if HCSS rallied and kept a 4 star like Trill or Qadir in state instead of letting them slip to the B1G

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Sampson is not coming here. Zero chance

Why zero? Is it based on something you know for sure, or just gut feeling?

 

[SUFaninNJ]

Are we rating this as far as college football programs go, or rating this compared to past Syracuse recruiting classes? For an SU class, so far I'd give it a B+. Compared to other college football classes, at the moment it's probably a B, B-.

 

[orange_in_VA]

Known for sure

 

[MSOrange]

I'd give it a B right now. If we get the 2 RBs in February, then I'll bump it up to a B+. Sampson prevents it from being an A.
