I am concerned why we haven't had a single scholarship commit this month.  We've already had two decommits during the recruiting process, and will anyone else decommit?  We've read lately that several of our commits have made visits to other schools, which is troubling also. 

I know that none of Bielema's classes have been totally full.  I think one year was two short, another year was one short. 

I don't know about you guys, but I am really starting to worry about what's going to happen the next two weeks.

Did you really click on the "report to moderator" button.  And not only that but do it on yourself?

Our second highest rated commit committed this month. We have an unbelievable amount of elite players coming this week

Ha ha...aren't we about to have one of our biggest recruiting weekends ever?

We are in the top 3 or final schools for an insane amount of talent. This will end up being our greatest recruiting class. BB hasn't let us down when it comes to recruiting, no idea why you would start worrying now with already a top 25 class that still has 8-9 spots left to fill, and the majority of those could end up being 4 and 5 star players. We could see a top 15 class by the time its all said and done. Come on.

Ugh - I guess I can say ' in before trash can'
To add a "sig line" or "signature line": Go to your "profile" then go to "modify profile" then scroll down to where it says "Signature" and type in what you want it to say and then click on "change profile". That's it, you're done. Your sig line will only show up on your first post on each page.

I'm not worried. I'm anxious! The amount of talent coming in the next TWO weeks is "incredible" lol

All year long I've been hoping we would get just one of: K Fulton, E Cuffee, or C Bundage and then CBB goes and blows my mind with having them all visit the same weekend to go along with arguably the top safety in the nation, Brandon Jones??.. I'm pumped!

Also, I hope we aren't too late on the Chris Daniels party. *crosses fingers*

Having lots of talent visit in January really doesn't seem to be that unique for us over the last few years.  The trick is actually signing a bunch of them.

This again?

Eeyore hadn't posted his concerns on recruiting this week.

We're currently ranked 9th in SEC recruiting.  Wonder why Alabama only has 16 commits at this point too?

Because......get this.......they've had several decommit.

Really piss-poor timing. RD has published the finest visit list UA has had in at least 7 years, maybe ever. And that is the week the OP pops in to spread his cheer in the recruiting forum?

bull. Not gonna endure that.

Moses007 can come back after signing day (and another day, as we'll enjoy signing day around here) and note where all of this fell apart, if applicable.

The next two weeks should be Christmas Eve. We are allowed to get excited, we are allowed to be overly optimistic, we are allowed to get all bunched up at the possibilities. Never mind if it is reasonable or not. This is fandom 101's second greatest season, right behind August drills. This is the time to let go and dream.

No more negative nancy bull for a while.

Because kids have until February 3rd to decide and there isn't a calendar quota on signing kids.

You go back and look at the last 3 classes and the player contributions + NFL early entries. The way this staff is, you can expect potential NFL prospects. The nervousness is naturual, but sit back and enjoy what happens during this home stretch. I think we are in for exciting news come NSD. Woo Pig!

Well, this seemed to have worked out well for the OP.
