-while anyone would be surprised if they ended up anywhere other than oxford, there is apparently truth to the rumor that the SP boys were having people contact other schools for them in an attempt to open up old options. As good as Gross might be though, it appears most teams are too far along and full at his position. It is looking like some of these recruits haven't been impressed with the hiring of Freeze. At least Nutt had a reputation as a big name coach (don't know how he ever obtained it though).<div>-Read the rebel private boards and they are starting to get impatient and question Freeze and his staff already. I think they understand they got Ward in spite of who the coach is.</div><div>-Sounding good for us with Wallace. Not real surprising though.</div><div>-Look for 3 or 4 new and old names to pop up for that last one and maybe two best available scholies.</div><div>-Don't be surprised if our commit list changes for the better (as in dropping and adding) as things wind down at the end. Of course this doesn't factor in what the two Brown's do. They are being left out of this equation. If we don't get them, we will be disappointed. </div>

Are we going to ask acommit or two to look elsewhere or are they going to leave on their own?</p>
I would be very surprised if Mullen did this for any reason other than academics/attitude concerns. I'm not judging it either way, although I don't really like it, but if a kid has been firmly committed for a while and isn't looking around, I don't think we're just going to cut them loose.<div>
</div><div>I really believe we have 3 spots open with 1 or 2 grade casualties a possibility, but as of right now, everyone's looking pretty good, even James. I think we'll take Beniquez, Wallace if he wants to come, and either Richie Brown or Moore/Allen/Jefferson (more than 1 if we end up having room).</div>

we need to be more careful taking borderline prospects early in the process.
It still blows my mind we slow played D'Arthur Cowan and Donald Hawkins, but took early commits from player X, Y, and Z.
