Waid could be biggest signing in quite a while.
Thoughts?

Let us hope he is the QB for us (like Mayfield for the Browns).
Does anyone know if he has any IA offers? If not, why not (with his numbers)?

IAA Fan:
Class already "wreaks" of Bo. No meat and potatoes. We are now 3 & 4 deep in some areas and have nothing in others. Where are the JUCO's, they always sign early. Let's just look at our team:

Why a long-snapper, when we lose Vitas at Center?

At corner we lose Lee and Latham. I like them both, but we 8 (yes 8) underclassmen

At DB, no one graduates and we have 3 of 4 red-shirted (or played as a frosh).

At DE we do lose Williams, Reed Sims and Lauigene, but we do have seven (yes 7) returning, We had 12 DE's on the roster at one point. What the heck?

 At Free safety, we do lose Larkin, still have 2.

We have 12 LB's right now, losing Dellovade. Gee can we find 2 in the remaining 11 players?

I realize the game is changing, but when was the last time we recruited someone at center on the D? You cannot always blitz from the ends and teams with 2 backs just kill us.

We lose 3 guards and 2 tackles on the OL. This leaves 12. Of those 12, 6 of them will be seniors (with only 2 of those guys having ever seen a start).

We currently have 5 QB's returning. Mays will be the only senior. Seems like we must be dumping the remaining 3 of coach Shane's guys or our current staff simply cannot recruit this position?

Kudos to McCaster for adding some explosiveness to his game this year, but we need more and he was the starter. I know we are heavy on TB's in the roster, we should have been able to red-shirt Rushton and Smith.

WR's? We can lose half of what we have (17) and still have too many. Let's just see some play.

He's 6-2 so he's no "Baker the Touchdown Maker"!  I see offers from Fordham where he committed and decommitted, Cornell, Dartmouth, Robert Morris.  I wonder if the early commit to Fordham made others shy away?  Also, with Fordham, Cornell and Dartmouth, looks the the kid is no dummy, which is always good!
