Also, Fitzpatrick says IU has "a leg up" due to the @CubanCenter, mentioned specifically. #iufb

Not sure why we are going after WRs with the many we have coming back who are all underclass men plus Booth, Camion Patrick and Harris. Unless red shirting is the plan for any WR recruit. Such a thing as having too many - with no PT could lose some. BTW- What happened to Hawkins who also came here from UAB? Attended Florida but has not played college ball for 2 years. Not sure he was on the field this year.

You can't have empty years at positions such as Wide Receiver. Only a couple of positions you don't recruit every year.

Hawkins got some work at RB next year.

Ideally you take 1-2 guys at each position to keep depth on the roster each year.

With the exception of a few special teams guys, kicker, punter, long snapper, etc. Since we take them as walk-ons who earn a schollie if they are the starter, we can still try to get plenty of depth there.

Am thinking we will be a very strong team next year if D steps up. And waxing Duke in the bowl will be a recruiting pull.
