I don't know Beaver, I'd say our QB class gets at least a B+ because Tyrik "The Freak" Rollison is a stud! This guy looks impressive, woulda been a 5 Star for sure if he didn't have academic issues.
ReplyDeleteI think at least 2 of the listed Athletes will play DB, Washington and Lanier...we'll have to wait until next year 2010 to see what Cooper does.
Otherwise, I'd say a pretty fair assessment.
We ended up with a solid recruting class with ou coaches having very litttle time to recruit.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I am anxious to see what they can do with a full recruiting season.
