Am I right in thinking that we have one scholarship available this year and will have only one additional next year? If so, that is not enough to recruit the talent necessary to get us out of this mess even assuming that Capel can recruit great talent.
 
I believe we'll have two scholarships plus Osby, Goff, and TJ Taylor included in this class.

As it stands right now we have one Scholly available for next season, two are available with Cade and Ahmed, but Goff takes one. The following season we will have one as well, Washington and Thompson will graduate, but Richie Peters gets one of those. That's assuming there are no changes to the Roster between now and then.
 
Yes, this is pretty much the team player-wise for the next couple of years barring any departures.

If they're going to add 5 new players to the roster next year then it's not.

Hence why I said "barring any departures".
The question was about available scholarships.
There isn't many.

But we already add three next year as is right now

TJ Taylor
Osby
Goff

Plus We have one scholarship left to give out at least (most on the board think Harrdick is gone so that is 2) That is where we get 5 right now

Ciphering's obviously not Cheno's strong suit.

Technically TJ Taylor and Osby count for this year, both are using they're redshirt year.

So next year will be two new players, Goff + 1. If hardick transfers, since everyone wants him to so badly, it will be 3.
 
He is calling Taylor and Osby new players because they aren't going to play this year. So not necessarily new to the team, just new to playing.
 
If they go with Talley,then theyre in bad shape. Remember Marquise Carter and Kendall Durant?

Well, this whole board was wrong about Marquise Carter. Durant signed with an SEC school, but has obviously not been good.

But, thats not to say Talley wont be good.
 
What are the rules regarding redshirting freshman like TJ? If he doesn't play any game this year and decides he wants to transfer does he have to sit out a year at another D1 school? Obviously that would be a major deterrant because that player would only have 3 years to play after redshirting 1 year and sitting out 1 year as a transfer.

They've had one guy leave so they have a scholarship for him. Another guy is pretty much a safe bet to leave so they'll have his scholarship as well. That gives you Goff, Osby, Taylor, one open scholly, two open scholly. Not going to be the same squad, pal.

You're right we all were. That's why we don't offers scholarships. I will say that the juco guard from Howard College that I thought was total garbage is having a great year at Utah, though they're pretty bad.

Who's the guy leaving?
Hardrick? I would have thought he'd have left this year.
Is that what everyone is hearing?

Everyone seems to think he'll get forced out after this season. Remember, after last season we had a hard enough time getting enough guys to field a full roster this season...
