How do you thing the 2016 class will finish?

[MilesBarkley]

Percentages on some of the bigger targets left and odds I think they commit to PSU:

Brendan Ferns - 85%
Damar Hamlin - 30%
Khaleke Hudson - 75%
Tre Nixon - 20%
Jordan Fuller - 10%

Others?

Nordin with a great quote...

Nordin said he considered stopping the process of listening to other schools when UM special teams coordinator John Baxter left. But, Harbaugh himself personally picked up the chase.

The kicker says he's still firmly committed to Penn State, though.

"But I'm committed to Penn State. It's a great school, and I love the coaches. They have my back ... It'll be extremely hard to swing me away."

Hope CJF is at the door of the kids house to greet Harbaugh....

CJF has a "war room" where he organizes his recruiting, and I gotta believe it has a few more names on it than what is listed here....... I'm looking for some nice surprises at positions of need between now and signing day. Most likely on the day before or on signing day itself.....

All of the names are pretty good. Ferns can start in year one !!!! I also think there will be a number of plan B guys, 3 star types that will get a shot. I HOPE he can bring in a couple of JC guys for the DL.

Dioubate is a funny one. I think it's either Auburn/Mich State at this point.
The funny part is that mountains were moved to just get him across the state to Happy Valley for a visit.

Original poster has a pretty good take on chances. But I think there will still be a surprise or two that isn't listed and maybe not on anyone's radar on this board.

 

[Judge Smails]

Right now, I think we get Ferns and Kyzir White, the safety. Hopefully can hang on to Nordin. That's about as optimistic as I can get. Of course we could get some surprises. Some bad luck with all this news coming out now. Hurts some short term more in perception than reality. It is what it is. It's just the finish of one recruiting class. Regroup, let's have a great offseason.

I think we get Hamlin. I think if he was going to commit to Pitt, he would have done so already and is putting it off to avoid the grief he will get from the Pitt fans.

I agree, wasn't Hamlin one of the many that Pitt fans attacked for something? I think Hamlin's dad tweeted something out a while ago about it or something

Ferns and Hudson are the only two on this list I believe we get..

Not sure who else is on JF's radar at this moment, but I would expect a couple from flips or late bloomers from the south that are lower rated. IT's just late in the game.. Need to replace Dioubate, but I don't know who with!

I'm expecting some excitement, but I will be pleased with the 20-22 studs we end up with!!

Hudson to UM starting to get some smoke. 50/50

Hudson to UM starting to get some smoke. 50/50

Maybe Franklin should be outside Hudson's house the minute the dead period ends since we know Harbaugh won't be there.

 

[MilesBarkley]

January 22nd will tell a lot of how this will finish. I'm sure a few of the guys will be in Hamlin, Hudson, etc's ears

 

[cjrugger]

I think Ferns and Nixon should both be a lot closer to 50/50

Fitz just CB Dioubate to Temple, so he must really want to stay home. Heard his family is economically challenged and maybe he just doesn't want to leave them. People in poverty are very family strong!!

This always made sense. Never saw him going to the SEC. I wonder if we could have done a better job with him, though.

does he have a name?

Would be massive if true.

If an SEC bag man shows up at his Mama's door, that will change. Football is almost as sleazy as basketball has been for a long time. I'm about at the point where I am done with it. A team doing things the right way, will a one in a thousand shot at a NC in this atmosphere.
