    Despite my best efforts, I might have to end up with a Steve Bellisari this year ... ugh.

    This is pretty much the exact recruiting roll I wasn't hoping for. Needed a huge year on the defense and a few key positions on offense. Pretty much none of my needs are going to be easy ... and most of the guys I'd be in a competition for is against half the dynasty, not just one or two guys. Not yet sure what I'm going to do.

    watching texas makes me want to restrict recruiting to only 1 or 2 players over how many we have leaving lol

    besides the QB position i feel pretty good, though i will have battles with many users so it could turn out terrible.

    I've only recruited the same amount of players I've lost the last two years.. never had to make a single cut.

    I'd be genuinely shocked if any of us are going over by more than 3 ... and certainly not before the offseason (personally, I think the offseason shouldn't factor into any "total" amount since it can't be predicted.

    With the competition we've had from the CPU and among users, I don't think any of us have had a chance to stack the deck ... even Texas and USC.

    I'm at 63....never been close to 70....I wanted to concetrate on [4star] and [3star] this season....but I couldn't help myself....just a ton of good prospects this year (besides that scrub at #1)....so what I did was go over my "comfortable" recruiting board number to see how I look going into week 2....then I'll start removing some guys and look at the lower rated prospects. I really wanted to concetrate on my WRs, OL, and DL....and they sure took care of my WR need since I have so many juniors.

    I definitely need some WR. All of mine are all RSJr with the exception of the 2 I recruited last year. I think I'm good at QB for this year and next year. There aren't any good ones that is interested in Oregon that fit with my scheme.

    I've only got 59 players on my roster, 14 are Seniors. Need another recruiting season like last seasons.

    Oklahoma starts off strong with:

    [espnu150][4star] #6 DE Antonio Smith - 6'2", 245lbs
    Analysis: Looks like a possible LB/DE hybrid with his skills favoring a DE position, but can also do a bit of pass coverage as well.

    [4star] #13 DE Nathan Smith - 6'6", 235lbs
    Analysis: Detroit's Nathan Smith will be a Sooner next year. Smith is a straight up TFL man. He knows how to get through the line of scrimmage. Not alot of speed, but deadly acceleration. Just how we like 'em.

    [3star] OLB #28 Maurice Washington - 6'1" 217lbs
    Analysis: A balanced coverage LB who knows how to stop the run. Would like to see him bulk up a little though.

    Dragon,

    Your killing with Nathan Smith, plucking him out of my backyard like that.

    Also what position could the #1 recruit seriously be? B- Hit power and B- Pass Block are his best skills.. He's 5'11" and 202lbs. Way too small for a lineman. How did he get to be #1? A FB/LB/S/useless hybrid?

    He's a really underrated by his position rank, his skills and size are very nice.. I'm definitely trying to get some talent on my defense. He's going to be looking good in a Sooner uni next year.

    He's actually the most Northern of any of my targets.. gotta love that Texas-California region talent..

    You definitely lucked out by getting an instant out of him though. Me and Oneback would have had a decided advantage with the pipeline. Good pickup, I was certainly hoping I had a shot on him.

    [espnu150][5star]SS (#2) Ross Rogers 6'3 195 Lbs Greenwood, MS

    FSU lands a huge target at a huge position of need. With only 1 player returning next year the noles were looking for an instant impact player and they got one. Rogers reminds FSU coaches of former miami safety kenny phillips with his height, speed and tenacity.

    [espnu150][4star]MLB (#3) Wali Powell 6'0 225 lbs Roswell, GA

    Wali had given a verbal commitment to the gators on a visit to hogtown the week before, but was blown away by his trip to Tallahassee and committed on the spot. Wali can play inside or outside for FSU

    He chose FSU over UF and Bama

    [espnu150][4star]FS (#1) Patrick Bowen 6'3 205 lbs Atmore, AL
    Patrick rounds out a stellar safety recruiting class for the noles, he possesses the speed to take away the deep ball and the strength to punish receivers over the middle and will look to challenge 2 freshman for the starting spot next season.

    [3star]K (#1) Darryl Edwards 5'11 216 lbs Druid Hills, GA

    Darryl is the 2nd #1 player at his position to sign with the noles and will start right away at kicker and punter. He was pursued heavily by Miami and Texas but his heart was with his childhood favorite.
