4 verbals?

[Unleash Hell]

When is the last time we've had 4 verbals before July? Nice to see, keep up the hard work staff! Lets land Fitzpatrick, Wright and some D-lineman now!

Interesting stuff. Got to like where we are right now compared to the previous 8 years.

I'm with you Leash, it is great to see some action on the recruiting front and I'd like to see at least a couple more going into the season.

I imagine will get more from camp (hope hope). Anyway, it shows the coaches are making recruiting a priority.

Not to be a downer... But those rward stats are not something you can compare to the current situation. He would have needed to list those who had committed by the date without regard to whether they stuck with it. That comparison would be the apples we are looking for.
