July Recruiting Thread

[Carm]

I haven’t paid attention to this as close as I should. So NU can have grandfathered players but only 105 will be able to play? And now the grandfathered players can transfer if they want or stay but not be able to play? If NU has a year ending injury can they move one of the grandfathered players to the 105?

No. Grandfathered players are on the roster and they can play, they just do not count against the 105 limit.

There was always a problem in grandfathering someone who was likely to play a lot, as it would be difficult to maintain that they would've been cut because of the 105 limit.

So why are they having such a small recruiting class? Couldn't they just grandfather more players and take as many as they want?

We don't know who they are grandfathering as yet. But that would be hard to have done, There was no grandfathering until May (if I remember the date) and the 2025 class was long done. You really can't grandfather more than 21 and argue you needed to cut all of them to get to 105 by 8/28/25.

There are guys willing to take chances. E.g., Lincoln Riley. His record got worse each of the 3 years he was at USC. If it got worse again, he's likely fired. He might as well pull out the stops and hope he can make it work in some fashion.

Good for guys like Rhule that said he never wanted to promise anything that they weren't 100% sure on.

I think Riley's destiny is to be relegated to an NFL OC at some point, like Chip Kelly. Riley is a great offensive mind and coordinator but is a bad HC. I'm not surprised by his results thus far at USC as his OU resume was fool's gold: run it up against bad B12 defenses then get worked in the playoffs.

He's paid way too much to play like they did last season.

I think the big money guys at Auburn have stopped writing checks. Looks like it is hitting them for the 2026 class, but will be interesting if it continues into the roster.

Oklahoma was legit. 2017 took double overtime for Georgia to win rnd 1 playoff against that team. Of course, after Baker left not so much. Did they make the playoff again after that? USC has been a terrible and expensive mistake for the school.

Devin Jackson is committing today

247 has no CBs one way or another for Jackson

Rivals pre-merger has no Futurecasts one way or another on Jackson

On 3 has 3 RPMs for Jackson to Oregon (the 4th - to Florida -is old - 2023). Wiltfong's was the first:



Bender is from Florida On3, Torres and Hopkins (Publisher) are from ScoopDuck.

That's probably why USC is throwing so much money on this year's class. They'd rather pay a bunch of money to players than to Riley's $90 million buyout. Boosters are getting a deal by buying a No. 1 ranked recruiting class rather than a buyout.

If that is what they are doing then it doesn't seem to me a wise strategy. Buying excellent ingredients for the wrong chef. That restaurant is going out of business.

Only 1000%. Probably still likely to flip if he's not 1,000,000% committed.

Must have his NIL & Rev-share deals in writing already.
