2024 Recruiting

[gofurman]

I'm just sayin' we're going to have a QB battle in the spring:

Hope he is awesome !

Every Freshman is given the opportunity to win the starting job, at whatever position. Very very few ever do.

Sluka for year, then a more developed Carson Jones for 2 years, then this Hedden kid for a couple years.

THIS. Felton future several year pro even took until mid year to win his spot if I recall.

Am I the last one to know that Furman's Will Bouton has a son, William Bouton, that is an all-region LB? I can't find anything about him or any offers on social media. Hope we at least offer a PWO to him if he doesn't any scholarship offers! I'll try to do a end of season round up on the commits at some point. A lot of all-region honors for the current commits.

Also, the portal is already nuts, but next Monday is going to be bonkers. I have no idea if Furman will have anyone go in early if they win this weekend, but with all the movement that is likely to start happening, don't be surprised if some of our commits end up getting some new offers. The portal opening up 2 weeks before December signing day makes the next couple of weeks pretty crazy. Hope we can get to signing day without losing anyone!

We are all getting old. Lol. Or I am at least

Moment of honesty, I have lost complete track of my days. Apparently I thought today was the 12th in my head.

Happy Signing Day Eve Astro and to all that celebrate!

I'll celebrate AFTER the hay is in the barn. Hope they all turn out to be swingin' johnsons.

Most people probably wouldn't even notice, but just a heads up that I think it's a very real possibility that Jalin Edwards is going to flip from Furman to North Alabama. Signs are certainly all there.

Jackal and I were talking about it. I can't remember a time where I've been following the recruiting where we've had a commit flip on signing day. Edwards is from northern Alabama though, so if it happens it could make sense if it's because he wanted to be closer to home. I will be nice and refrain from any further comment about weighing pros/cons versus the two schools.

Pro - Muscle Shoals has got The Swampers. And they’ve been known to pick a song or two.

THIS - see my question above. I'll be happy when they are actulally SIGNED officially

[FUwolfpacker]

I mean, I'm generally excited about all Furman commits, so that's hard to answer.

I don't know for sure it's definitely going to happen. Just made a tweet that he had big news coming and all the likes are from UNA coaches/players...so...read into that what you will.

IF it happens, it's just tough to lose a guy that's been committed for 4 months and lose on the last day. Doesn't give you time to look for a new guy for the early signing period. We'll see. This may all be for nothing. Just don't have a great feeling about it.

Will be happy to be wrong for sure!

Opens up a spot for a possible transfer and I think we were very tight on having a spot previously.

[AstroDin]

A lot to be excited about in this class- I wouldn’t try reading anything into Edwards not signing today- patience Grasshopper.
