They are a powerhouse, in Michigan I believe. Brian Kelly use to coach there

So I can completely perfect this, can somebody quickly tell me the official positions for Fenton and Borland? On the new recruits I'll just be forced to project in some cases.
BTW, I know the math is incorrect, there should be two more freshmen added, Goins removed, Turner shifted, etc.; but I'm not the one who is directly making the changes. I'm giving instructions to the person who owns the website and there were naturally some mix ups in communication. So it's not necessary to tell me to change those mistakes of which I'm aware.

On the Yahoo! roster they are both listed at LB (Not sure whether outside or inside). If you need to dress it up some let me know, I stepped up my photoshop game

Thanks for the clarification.
About making it more aesthetically pleasing (which I already thought it was for the most part), you'd need to basically start your own table from scratch. Based on the information I provided though, of course. It would have its benefits because member(s) of this board would have direct access, unlike now. |

Just noticed it was updated - which is impressive considering you didn't even have to change the link - looks good. Do you plan on keeping Southward at S? I still think he ends up there, but if they have him practicing with the CBs, maybe he should get moved. I'm not sure what I would do myself.

You need to subtract Goins from the roster. That would make it 19 available.

He knows that, there's just a middleman involved in making the changes. Should be updated soon I'm guessing

What he said. I stated already that I was aware of the Goins departure, specifically.

I just need to stick with one standard - either making my own projections - or going by what the coaches will reportedly do. I've decided to follow the latter because ultimately they are the ones who control how players are utilized, and will probably give them every chance to succeed there because of confirmation bias, unless there are unforeseen circumstances like attrition at another position. So I put Southward at cornerback for now, even though it seems relatively likely he'll be transferred to safety later. Right now he appears to be a cornerback because of a gross lack of depth, but I can't be positive of that.
-----------------------------------------
About the actual projection, I'm going to predict we'll have 21-22 recruits signed once the class is culminated, and 10-11 who are unknown at this time. The breakdown of why the extra 6-7......3 current scholarships lost due to attrition (transfers, personal problems, grades), 2 over-signings, 0-1 5th year seniors not asked to return (maybe Tolzien), 1 decommitment (?). The over-signing may even be conservative because we didn't go over at all, or only one last cycle, and after all the attrition, we only ended up with 81 true scholarship players this year out of our 85 allotted (missed Moody on the chart). They may end up regretting that if they struggle to find answers at one position, say cornerback, because the depth is inadequate.
My semi reasonable prospect wish list based on need and talent:
3 CB: Kevin Johnson, Peniel Jean, Terrence Talbott
2 DT: Beau Allen, Terry Talbott
1 MLB: A.I. Ho Ching
2 OT's: Skyler Schofner, Robbie Havenstein
1 WR: Bobby Swigert (I'm at a loss at that position)
1 TE: Alex Smith
1 scat back: James White

Troy Hill never mentions Wisconsin in his updates. I know I included Swigert, but I was at a loss to conjure up names at that position. There aren't a dearth of recruits who've been offered at cornerback by the staff, that at this point look like potential members of the class. |

Dex Jones, Darious Thomas, and Daven Jones have left the program.
Daven is at Western Kentucky, and I think it was a smart decision no matter how much Bern and myself liked him he was just buried after that chea....unintentional chop block against the Goofs. Good luck to Daven he worked so hard to get here I really wish him the best.
