The 2016 recruiting season is, for all practical purposes, over. We might sign another player or two, but they will in essence be gravy, i. e., not critical to the success of the team next year. However, with nine seniors on the roster now, our recruiting team MUST be working overtime from the get-go. We expect to be good next season, but the question after will be a question mark.
Based on the current roster, Oliver Black, Dayshawn Watkins, Deondre Burns will be the only players on the roster with more than a full year of D1 experience. Ryan Pippins, Andre Jones and Corbyn Jackson will be available next year, but it is anyone's guess how much (of if) they will play given the wealth of upperclassmen available.
We will not be signing one or two players, or even three or four. There are currently SEVEN scholarship seniors on the roster who will have to be replaced. The represents a ton of work for the staff, so we had better get after it.
