Sark and company need to be smart enough to read the room right now. I would not be stupid like Herman and put all your eggs in landing Banks, Dewberry, Perkins, Harris, Stewart, or Campbell. It is likely we miss on all of them than us winning any of these recruitments right now. They need to start building good relationships with our plan Bs so we don’t end up with a 2nd transition class. That will bury us further. Need to keep Thompson and Miller in the fold on offense. Need to go heard after Mathew Golden.
We need to get Devin Brown and another transfer QB from a D1 program with experience. I would not spend another minute developing Card. He’s more likely to transfer and I wouldn’t be surprised if Casey did either. Casey had 1 foot out the door during fall camp.
We need to throw bodies at OL. Start your plan B evaluations now and offer them now. I’m not sure offering a starting spot to any of the elite prospects we’re after is going to convince them to come on board. We can’t be left standing with our dicks in our hand. Evaluate some guys with size and athleticism and coach them up. We’re going to need to hit on our evaluations. Hell look at who Iowa State, Okie State, Ole Miss is offering and go after those guys.
On defense, we need to keep all of our DL commits in the fold. These guys are legit recruits and other teams are about to hover like vultures to poach them. Need to help Bo Davis drop a bag for Tapp and tell Finkley he’s guaranteed an acceptance to the med school. Need to keep Bryant in the fold as Ole Miss is playing well. Keep Allen and Jordan committed. These guys are solid prospects. We need to find some fucking linebackers because I fully expect DMO to declare for the draft.
At this point, they need to focus all of their efforts in making sure this current class doesn’t fall apart.
