RD does Kirkland have 2 or 3 yrs of wligibility?

He's a high school senior... so 5 to play 4.

[trashcan maN]

Ya I just saw that. His 247 profile is weird. Showed him as a 2013 recruit at another school.

Thanks

[trashcan maN]

Looks like Kirkland is scheduled to visit Texas in 2 days and USCW the weekend after that. Betcha BB is pushing hard for him to cancel one of those.

[RazorPiggie]

Do we have any shot at Kirkland?

[RazorPiggie]

Not seeing it on Kirkland. He's basically already took all his visits.

[greenie]

If any of the guys transferring out go to D1 schools, don't they have to sit out a year?

[WooPig90]

Not seeing it on Kirkland. He's basically already took all his visits.

Only shot is if he cancels one of his last 2 visits

[WooPig90]

If any of the guys transferring out go to D1 schools, don't they have to sit out a year?

Yup

[Mortgage Hog]

If any of the guys transferring out go to D1 schools, don't they have to sit out a year?

Not if they have finished undergrad at previous school. 

[ricepig]

Not if they have finished undergrad at previous school. 

Which these guy's haven't.

[RazorPiggie]

Only shot is if he cancels one of his last 2 visits

Which are scheduled for this weekend and next.

[PorkRinds]

Which these guy's haven't.

Who are "these guys"?

[ricepig]

Who are "these guys"?

Marshall, Hines, Ollison

[WooPig90]

Who are "these guys"?

Hines, Korliss, Ollison

[PorkRinds]

Marshall, Hines, Ollison

Gotcha.  Didn't Hines sit this year?  Would he have to sit another?

[WooPig90]

Gotcha.  Didn't Hines sit this year?  Would he have to sit another?

Yup since he got redshirted i believe, he would have to sit next year unless he goes to a non D1 school first

[WooPig90]

I saw a headline just a little bit ago saying "Arkansas could add transfer, but not who everyone is thinking" and a small description about it being a LB. Anyone know who it could be?

A linebacker at a school we played this year who could play immediately as a senior next year. He also led his team in tackles the past 2 years.

[Bubba's Bruisers]

I'm still waiting for RD, or anyone, to answer my question about numbers.  We have 18 public commits now if you include Allen. We're taking 25.  So why is it a common understanding that we still have 8 spots left?  Do we have a spot to count back?  Is there a current commit we think won't be there in the end?

LB from UAB?

Everywhere I have heard, is 7

[Bubba's Bruisers]

Well in the last month or so, I've seen 8 a lot...and after Graham committed.  And if I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure RD even said or suggested 8 as well.

Jake Ganus, posted about him several times.

[WBC Hog]

I've also heard for the past month or so we have 8 spots left. With CBB saying we're signing 25, I'm confused. Help

[JaketheSnake]

CBB has been spending a lot of time in Utah.  I hope it pays off.

[Music City Hog]

I'd be willing to bet that Kirkland will be a Vol.

[Scott7703]

I'd be willing to bet that Kirkland will be a Vol.

You see anyway we get Kirkland in for a visit?

[gumbohog]

Question - do transfers count against our 25? Obviously They against our 85 (if they're on scholarship)...but just making sure they don't count against our 25

Havent read the whole thread but if I had to guess I would say a LB from UAB maybe
