Something like that. It's complicated for G5 teams, because sometimes these "commitments" are from preferred walk-ons, who don't count towards the 85 scholarship limit.

It sounds like there isn't a 25-person limit per year anymore, so we could see a bigger class of incoming freshmen than normal, depending on how many leave and what we do in the portal.

I was wondering if we'd lose one after I saw that Elias Owens plans to play TE. He seems to have the most size and upside, so it makes sense someone would either lose their offer or see the writing on the wall.

This class is shaping up to be rather good.

The top half is as strong as I can remember since Clawson, though admittedly I’m not diving too deep.

Could be the ripple effect of fewer scholarships available at the P5 level due to the transfer portal.

Commitment from a WR in Florida named Caleb Goodloe. Had a bunch of offers including Liberty, Toledo and Wake Forest. 6’1” 185 and has some gaudy stats with solid bursts of speed.

BG commit, Austin Clay, received an offer from Michigan State today. High chance we lose him, as that is his first power five offer, and it's a pretty big one.

Currently three of the top 10 in program history are in this class, and Austin Clay's score has jumped since his offer from MSU, so if he sticks with BG it'll likely be 4 out of the top 11.

Visit must've gone well. He just flipped to MSU.

Wish the kid the best. Hard to turn down a P5 opportunity like that.
