Potencial

As per my previous post, this is working under the 18 ships assumption.

QB: Tom Savage
RB: Desmond Scott
RB: Aaron Heyward
WR: Mark Harrison
WR: Josh Evans
TE: Paul Carrezola
OL: Jamal Wilson
OL: Mark Brazinski
OL: Isaac Holmes/Khalil Wilkes
DE: Bernardo Nunez
DE: Michael Larrow
DE: Andre Civil
DT: Jordan Hill
DT: Antwan Lowery/Mike Douglas
LB: Ryan Donohue
LB: Steve Beauharnais
LB: Glenn Carson/Gerald Hodges/Ka’lial Glaud
CB: Logan Ryan
CB: im Noel
S: Duron Harmon/Abdul Smith
S: Mohamed Sanu

First, the roster for this fall:

QB - 5 (counts Shimko, enrolled early)
RB - 6
WR - 6 (counts Stroud, enrolled early)
TE - 5 (Brock getting ship in fall, Minemyer doesn’t count, McGovern not a guarantee)
OL - 13 (counts Forst, Barbieri getting ship)
DL - 11 (not counting Francis)
LB - 9 (counting Laryea, not counting Dumont)
DB - 10 (not counting Anderson, counting Bing)
K/P - 2

= 67 + 17 = 84. Studivant leaving opened up a ship. While I don’t expect Francis to be back, one spare ship means that ship hasn’t entirely sailed.

Scholarship seniors leaving:

1. Brock (assumed on ship)
2. Gilmartin
3. Greene
4. Lee
5. Malast
6. McCourty
7. McGovern (might be able to apply for a sixth year, unknown if staff would let him)
8. Quaye
9. Teel
10. Tverdov
11. Underwood
12. Watts
13. Westerman

That leaves 14 ships. If Kenny Britt is as good as we think he is, that’s 15. Add in a couple more due to normal attrition (injuries, transfers, fifth-year seniors not being invited back, being too conservative with players like Laryea, and recruits possibly not qualifying.)

Intuitively, I’d say expect 18 recruits next year. I was somewhat upset that we brought in so many players late in last year’s class. However, it may prove to have been necessary. We won’t know until August. Next: an early class projection.
