We have discussed this ad nauseum. Trust The Grid. Or don't.

We are not full.

Hmmm...must have known something!  😉

69's laptop must be smokin' from all the changes he's had to make during the Mullins era.  Right on!  keep it up coach, and Insider crew.  Great job by both.

Just looking at the grid now makes you so much more comfortable.  Class balance clearly being restored.  I would expect one freshman as of now to redshirt.  My best guess is Brown given that I don't think he sees a lot of minutes behind Cook and McGill but we will see.

Still so much to, likely, happen between now and the  season.  I would say that Brown would be a good bet to RS because he might need some seasoning on the defensive side of the ball and the general quickness of the game.

Not sure where you're seeing class balance. We currently have 6 guys in the 22-23 class and there are still three open schollys. Could end up with 9 players in one class. Granted, maybe a couple will redshirt, but that's not balance.

I'd imagine a couple/few freshman will redshirt when its all said and done. We may benefit from adding a JUCO player or two that'd help bolster the junior class.

No matter how it shakes out, class balance can't be any worse than it was last year.

Mullins won't let 9 be in the same class.  He has set himself up to balance the class.  Some will redshirt, maybe more than just Brown if we can get another JUCO, then next year you can add another grad transfer or juco and you are basically balanced.. The fact that we have shown to be in the grad transfer market makes it much easier to balance a class.

Francois was a freshman already so he will provide balance. One is a fifth year senior.

  Trust the process.

I have nothing against the process, I think things will work out in the end. I was just stating the fact that we do not have anything close to class balance, I wasn't sure where he was thinking we did. lol

I understand that... but neither of those are in what I counted as a 6 player class..... plus maybe more.

First, I now want a Quatro's Challenge pizza so badly...thanks for that... 😜 

Second - with all the new players signed, when does the school update the roster? Is it not official for them to update until the academic year resets and the kids are officially enrolled on campus?

How do you figure a six person class at this point?

Dembele, Taggart, Jones, Brown, Domask, and after a redshirt, Harvey.... they are all in the '22-'23 class

I understand one or two may redshirt,which will help balance it out, but as of right now its 6 players.... plus still three open scholorships so it could theoretically end up a 9 player class.
