Highly Regarded Recruits Visit Akron

Recommended Posts

Several high profile recruits have visited Akron in recent weeks. The new staff is busy performing last minute recruiting magic.

There are not many spots left in the recruiting class. Then again, for every recruit we get under Ianello we seem to lose a Brookhart player or recruit.
Really? How do you figure? We have about 9-10 locked up. I can't say I have seen a recruiting class of smaller than 15 at a FBS school..if I have, it is very rare. I would think we have room for at least 5-9 players.

Our class is a small one. I think we have something like 18 or 19 scholarships to give, and I think we have 11 locked up. Most schools have at least 20 recruits per class. Akron has to be more selective than usual when offering scholarships.
The average number of incoming freshmen is in the mid 20's (23-26)19 seniors, Ianello doesn't have to honor any "preferred status" people, and there has been or probably will be some transfers.

When I saw the thread title of Highly Regarded Recruits, I assumed we were talking about BCS level recruits. The list you are showing are commits to other MAC schools. If we only recruit MAC level recruits, we will only be a MAC level team.I understand that coach got a late start and all, but I wouldn't call these guys high level by any means.

Get all the higher end mac recruits. Win some damn games. See where the program is after that.Probably still in the mac but with some options.

Great post.Nicely was offered by about 9-10 MAC teams. Though early in his career, he seems to be working out OK.Good to get those guys that are basically recruited by every MAC team, steal a couple that have some Big 10, Big East offers...and coach 'em up!!
