The Front Row

I say no. 1 year bowl ban is not going to break the backs of current recruits. If there was one, maybe Brionte Dunn, but ultimately I trust in Urban to keep them in the fold.

On the other hand if some deadwood in the soph or junior class wanted to transfer, that would be ok with me. Free up additional schollies....that is the part i dislike the most is the schollie reductions.

We may see some attrition ... unfortunately.

De-commiting over a one year bowl ban is a stupid decision on so many levels non of which include the fact that most of these kids will barely see the field. especially Schutt who I dont think will edge out Big Hanks. One year sucks for us but in the grand scheme of things it shouldn't of any substantial affect

I have a hard time believing Schutt already de-committed. I mean what is he sitting by the phone, hears the news and blasts out a tweet 10 seconds later?? No discussion with family, no time to reflect on the decision... At the very least call Urban (which is allowed, i think, during the dead period) and talk to him.

Obviously the pre-Meyer commits aren't going anywhere. They committed when things looked the worst.

I think Spence is completely sold on Meyer. He realizes that 1 year is nothing in the goals they look to accomplish.

Pittman may have burnt his bridges at MSU.

Dunn - I don't even want to start that whole thing back up again. I'm tired of hearing will he go to Michigan or not.

I think it causes some additional concern in guys that we were dreaming about getting like Diggs and Diamond. We'll see how it goes though. The less fans go crazy about it. The less the players will go crazy about this whole thing.

The fact is Urban has been in the SEC for years. He knows how to stretch 82 schollies into 85 schollies pretty easy. Realistic expectations wouldn't have had us in the NC next year anyhow. Big Ten possibly.
