What happened to the DeSoto signees?

UNTLifer · February 5, 2014

So, if Graham and Jackson grayshirt, who fills the final two spots?

We get to sign 27 next year, if that is the case.

Really?

I thought we can only sign 25 max per year. Maybe we can award 2 of these to walkons?

However many spots of the 25 you have remaining after all have signed from a class, you can exceed the 25 cap by that much in the following year. As long as you have at least that many players (the number in excess of 25) enroll at midterm. It's called backcounting.

Or maybe a late signee falls in our lap

BillySee58 · February 5, 2014

Here's an article on backcounting, from back when the SEC was the only conference enforcing the 25 scholarship/class cap. It became an NCAA-wide thing last year (2013 signing class) so I'd have to imagine backcounting is NCAA-wide as well.

Here's the official site listing: http://www.meangreensports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/signing-day-2014.html

It looks like 19 total -- Wallace enrolled in the Fall, Means and Fortenberry are Jan signees and Josh Greer and AJ Smith are midterm juco transfers. Chumley is not listed.

Kishawn... So nice we named him twice.

Can he get a message to pass on to Sean Salisbury?

UNTLifer · February 5, 2014

So, what is the story on Chumley?

Brett Vito article

I trust Brett, but I just still don't get this scholarship situation. With the 3 grayshirting we should have 3 spots left. 19 signees and 3 walkons count in this class. Why only 1 scholarship left? I don't know why it wouldn't be 3, since that's how many short of 25 we are. Not to mention we have 63 scholarship players on campus right now, to my knowledge, and we signed 14 more today (5 already on campus) who will arrive in the fall.

That would put us at 77 total projected scholarship players for fall. So we have 8 left there, and 3 left in our class cap of 25. Why only 1 left?

Not sure, but it seems that the 25 limit is the culprit. There were 4 walkons awarded ships that count in this class Kirby, Macek, Buyers and Caldwell that were named. I wonder if there is another.
