General Signing Day Thread

[dbernie41]

Only 4 guys signed so far, I was hoping for more. Is there going to be a swift windfall of signings during the UC event?

I was looking at Rivals and have since checked that out and twitter. Anyone hear of any kind of big flips in favor of UC?

[ccur5743]

A name I hadn't heard yet but signed an NLI according to @GoBearcats is LB Franklin Bruscianelli. A) Good luck fitting that on a jersey B) Anyone know anything about him? Only site I could find with info was max preps.

I'd say our biggest flip was Caleb Stacey but I haven't seen any surprises yet today. Kind of ironic that we get a Michigan commit and Michgan gets one of our commits.

If you are following Butch Jones on Twitter it is being updated by the minute.

Corey Griffin and Alex Dale just added.

[JohnFrancis]

The Rivals site appears to be overloaded at times.

Is everyone listed on that gobearcats.com page a full scholly athlete?

I think Dylan Coombs is a preferred walk-on. Not sure if there are any others.

[Brian H.]

Shakim Alonzo in.

[ccur5743]

Gald Alonzo signed. By my count, we're just waiting on Bynum (who sounds iffy) and Tion Green (who has been wavering). Anyone else I'm missing?

Joey Jones is in

[Antonio]

Ti'on is in! CBJ was hyped over this one.

Nice!!!....

And I was just about to post that I think we lost him! Excellent news! Now if those 2 LBs for Jacksonville will re-commit to UC!

You talking about these two guys or different ones from FL?

9:09 a.m. Corey Griffin LB 6-1 205 lbs. Miami, FL/Coral Reef Senior
9:57 a.m. Joey Jones LB 6-0 190 lbs. Homestead, FL/South Dade

[Pruke]

Really think we have a good thing going when top recruit splits &'you love your class

2 different ones from Jacksonville - those 2 are from Miami.

Edit - right after posting this, Coach Jones tweeted that Ey'Shawn McClain committed!

[Brian H.]

Also Juco RB Aaron Harris

[dbernie41]

Between the Football and Recruiting sections it shows 108 people viewing those 2 forums... there must be a ton of lurkers here. Overall pretty pleased with the day! A surprise splash would be great though!

People are probably dipping in & out during work.

Looks like 650 on this thread

[Big B]

Any news on Jonathon Burt and Lester Liston, 2 three star that committed. Couple of Burts teammates enrolled early.

Burt is listed as an early enrollee.

5A All State (8A are the largest schools) on 3-peet state champion. Had 13 solo tackles and seven assists plus forced fumble in state championship game.

[Pruke]

Overall seems like a strong class with some upside. Is it officially over or is Jones still working the phone?

Thanks.

Regarding Bynum he still hasn't committed to UT yet. I wonder if UC is still in the picture. Word down here is that he'll take a visit to Knoxville in the near future, then decide.

[Pruke]

I wonder if Mondaris is still in the picture?

[dbernie41]

Having Bynum's teammate and fellow LB send his LOI to us can't hurt anything and seeing Madaris uncommitted can't hurt either. If we could pull Bynum BACK into the fold and grab Madaris... it would be some excellent icing on the cake.
