FB recruiting

Back-to-back PL champs 2016 and 2017.... but need to get back to relevance in the national FCS scene.

That number is negotiated by coaches and Admissions. We do get low end SAT recruits thru Admissions. Slotted players go thru admissions process separately from the frosh class pool.
LU is limited by the PL AI banding to how many can be included in any class. One reason why we recruit "levelers",high GPA kids to balance the overall AI of the recruit group.
A pertinent fact here. The AI does not apply to most transfer prospects. A source we need to exploit. Transfer admission is exceedingly difficult at LU. for all students. I wonder if staff could save a few slots for transfers..
Got a terrible QB accepted from Toledo...not exactly an academic juggernaut.

The AI loophole for transfers.That we wasted it on a player best described as a practice stud,game dud ,shows lousy talent evaluation. A recurring them at QB lately

Donovan Thomas? If so this is a loss of significant defensive playing time this year.

Agree.A solid veteran. Jones took his starting slot. Perhaps why but IMO he may just be looking for a winning program to finish out his college career. Can't blame him as LU likely in rebuild mode again.

It appears that Silbor is staying. Fingers crossed that this is correct.
