Any idea who the new recruit is? I like both Reiser and James from Lackawanna.

I am good with almost any o-lineman on the list.
But, I keep thinking that we are again being too dependent on getting JC offensive line help. Looking back on the JC o-linemen we have recruited, I don't think a single one of them ever has contributed in their first year at ACU. This is particularly true to the ones who come in the summer and do not have the benefit of spring practice.

trackfan, I just keep believing we'll find a player--somewhere, who can be a good player for us.

I do think that COVID and some of the overall stall that has happened in recruiting is increasing the quality of the JC pool this year considerably. Also, players that might get some consideration from FBS schools are facing the reality of the transfer portal and the wealth of talent available at the top. This is magnified even more by the fact that players have been given that extra year.
So I keep believing that the right fits and talent are out there.

Mavsman, any idea how many players are going to show up for the "recruiting workout" this week?

Bogey, honestly not sure. However, I would bet it's nearly all of the upperclassmen

New to the board but not ACU. Have a family friend who's son is playing this year and it's my understanding from him all scholarship players are on campus and in workouts as of today. Also hosting a transfer camp today for those in the portal.

The transfer camp is actually scheduled for tomorrow and June 9 I happened to be in the library today (ha!). There was quite a group of athletes who went through on a tour. That's the first group like that which I've seen in a considerable length of time!
