Current Scholarship Numbers

Advertisement
We don't necessarily have 11 spots to play with, or whatever number somebody comes up with. We will likely be limited by the per year initial counters limit, so I think it's unlikely we can get to 85 scholarships unless we give some more scholarships to walk-ons that have been on campus for more than 2 years.

I don't know how many recruits we have in the 2019 class that are EEs, but I seem to recall we have 3 (maybe 2) EE spots (i.e. 2018 initial counters) that can still be counted backwards in the 2018 class.

Transfers are a somewhat different, more flexible animal, but my understanding is they still need to account for an initial counter. However, a midyear transfer, if the school is under 85 total scholarships, and assuming there is space in both classes (2018 vs. 2019), can count as an i.c. in either year (i.e., backwards to 2018 or forward to 2019). Between back-counting EEs and transfers into the 2018 class, at most, we can get 27/28 in this class (assuming we have 2/3 counters left over in 2018).

By my count, we are at 19 total signees (14, see above post by@ofacekilla) + commits (Hedley) + transfers (Martin, Osborn, Kennedy, Bolden). Assuming all of the above is correct (plus Spicer for a total of 76 scholarship athletes), and assuming nobody else transfers or gets dismissed from the team, then we have enough initial counters to get to 84/85 -- 27/28 counters - 19 signees/commits/transfers = space for 8/9 more. 76 + 8/9 = 84/85.

None of this math is ever correct, though, because there's always some random walk-on who nobody knows got a scholarship, or the initial counters are off by one or two because of many years of back-counting.
 
Thanks Ofacekilla. Lays it all out clearly. We are way too light on the OL. Need much more depth of quality offensive linemen.

That DE depth chart looks scary, too. Would like to see a transfer there. QB, OL, DE, DT.

when are we ever going to get our numbers right.

That's the intent of placing a program on probation and reducing their scholarships...not only to cripple them during the probation but make it that once they're off probation it can take years to actually get to a full scholarship count of 85

55 Current Players
13 Signed
2 Commits
4 Transfers

74 total

That means we have 11 to play with.
Hurts
Tate
Brothers
Jones

We probably only end up with about 80 total. When is the last time we went into a season with 85 scholarship players? Has to go back to the Shannon days.


We need the 2 transfer QBs, 1 RB, 1-2 WR, 1-2 OL, 1-2 DE, 1-2 DT, 1 LB, 2-4 DBS.

Hopefully we bring in every transfer we can find as our roster is so young.

Our 2019 will have about 20 combined JRs and Seniors with Hurts.

Did you forget to give Hedley his bag$, or does he not get that until after he signs? LOL

That's a big *** sophomore class. If you believe in the whole, lots of seniors is a good thing, we should seriously be peaking in 2021, Manny's third season.

This is a nice sheet. Do you track initial counters as well?

Yup Hedley gets the $ once he is signed. lol. The chart is based on public info. No clue on how to track ICs. Glad to contribute something to the canes community

Not trying to be a **** but why is Clay James on scholarship? Don’t special teams guys who come on as walk ons get scholarships later in their careers? I think Jordan Butler was offered on junior or senior year.
 
I have us at 75 with all publicly announced transfers, converted walk-ons and commits included.

Here is my latest draft. Will publish in a stand alone tread once the official roster is updated for 2019 with the early enrollees, etcView attachment 76456
thanks for posting this as it really helps you see the big picture. Seeing all those talented names make me feel **** good if we can Hurts or Martell ( dont think we add both ) along with a few other players to fill gaps.

Long snappers are vital to a teams success, If I can remember correctly Jordan Butler received his scholarship from day one and they promised Clay James a scholarship once Butler graduated.

Not a d*ck question. Understand he was offered as a gray-shirt to replace Butler but had to announce PWO bc he enrolled in the fall. Staff kept their word to a kid who turned down other scholarships offers to come to Miami. Every D1 team needs a kicker, punter and snapper on scholarship.

Spicer is, also, on scholarship. Grad scholarship so I am not sure how that counts. (J. Murphy is also a grad scholarship)
