RE: 2018: Football recruiting updates before National Signing Day on 2/7
Marshall finishing strong. Just picked up two 3 star commits and a few others in the wings. In on a 4 star WR as well. Should be an interesting signing day for the league.
With 18 starters coming back, if we can add some depth, we'll be in great shape for the fall.

Tech picked up 3 Star JUCO OT Willie Allen. Pretty much done with the class at this point. Some interest from 1-2 others that are committed elsewhere. I think those guys are likely to stay with current schools. From a ranking standpoint (247 has it the 10th highest G5 school last I cheked), this will be Tech's highest rated class in a long time.

10th, but still a great class.

I see now. I think Tulane may have leaped ahead with commit yesterday. I'm still interested to see what Tech does at the RB position next season. The DB, LB, and WR core is looking good for next 2-4 years. Offensive and Defensive lines are hard to project IMO.

yeah, i looked 20min ago and USM was ranked #4 (CUSA) on 247. As of 5 min ago, we got jumped by UTSA. A lot of change happening right now.

And the schools who sign more players are going to be higher overall. Our average player rating is above FIU, Toledo, Tulane. And #1 in CUSA.

FIU’s average rating went up a bit since 247Sports updated their composites from some of ESPN’s latest ratings. Still, several players not rated by ESPN FIU our signees. Still, FIU is staying put as the #1 class so far in conference.

USM will move up, Golden Eagles signing two high profile, 3 star JC defensive lineman tomorrow....and maybe another surprise or 3.
You gotta look who's after some of these "3 stars" to learn their real worth...and our last three commits had originally been supposedly "easy" signings for Nebraska, Arizona and Really Old Mrs.
(and NO, we do NOT take Partial qualifiers...Next question!!!! )

MT is closing in a national top 10 class. The ranking services just don't get it yet.

It seems like several schools are having really strong recruiting classes this period. CUSA football is on the upswing.

I guess I was filtering out schools with 12 or less commits.

We received a '19 commitment with offers to Florida, Miami, and Syracuse. A year away, but a good sign.

When we hired our coach, we knew we were getting an X’s and O’s not a Jimmies and Joes guy. We won’t win NSD, but we will win on the field #GMG
