Lance signed on June 30th, as well. I am not saying that we will get someone of his caliber but no one has any clue to confidently to say that we are done right now.

I really hope we don't go into next year with 10 active scholarship players. Especially when most have never contributed in a Bearcat uniform. I'm starting to get nervous...i don't know a lot about recruiting, but it doesn't seem like a good sign that we can't come up with a single name of a player who could help us next year.

Finding someone with the talent to help us and come off the bench is not a easy task.

Sometimes I think Mick's problem with recruiting is he is too good of a person to lie to 18 year old kids and tell them what they want to hear.

I remember Jenifer saying he was told he'd play a lot right away. He was excited about that...but it wasn't true. Let's not kid ourselves here.

It's not looking good. Whomever chip miller was referring to seems to not be out there. Tried to confirm he was talking about 2016 class but haven't heard back via DM of Twitter. At this point if I'm Mick, I save the 2 scholarships til 2017 where it looks like we are in good positon on alot of high level guys. Start recruiting those targets EXTREMELY hard and load up for 2017 class.

Maybe I'm wrong but i think I've heard this before. We end up with a few recruits and then "pocketing" the rest a lot.

Just disappointing that the staff cannot complete a roster.
