I hear you but WF has specifically said he doesn't make offers to fill rosters. What does Tulane have now: about 81 players on full schollie (and that includes Wadleigh)?Aberzombie1892 wrote:Lurker, just like any other program, if we need a player to fill a particular position, we offer the best players that we could reasonably get that play that position, but, if we can't get them, we slowly work our way down the list with offers until someone commits. To phrase it differently, if we need a dual threat QB, we are going to keep offering dual threat QBs until one commits because we -need- a dual threat QB even if it is not the one of the top X that we want - it's really no different than what happened with Lindsay Scott and his replacement at the beginning of this year. Through that lens, it's difficult to accept that the fact that an offer is given means that the player that received that offer is automatically a desirable choice even if they came to our camp, especially in light of our difficulties in recruiting - losing battles to ULL, FAU (multiple), Kansas (multiple), Vanderbilt (multiple), ULM (multiple), Texas State, Georgia State, Appalachian State (multiple), and (fill in the blank school).
So if he followed your logic fully, we'd have a full complement of 85 players for the upcoming season. WF does draw lines. But obviously as you note that line sure seems lower than either you or I would have guessed last December.
