(Hope you don't mind 72, but I changed my message icon to a fussball. You own this string and you can do that for the board listing too)
Here's a copy/paste from the other string -- thanks to everyone who helped, we nailed all 17 of the signees we found -- they're all on the list.

If I knew how to do it I probably would have posted it that way! ;)
I really hope that 4 or 5 of these freshman can be difference makers from the start, especially on defense. Another 4 or 5 need to make the 2-deep roster.

According to Coach Carlson there is hope of couple doing exactly that -- and definitely the 2 deep will be bolstered. There are 8 DL recruits. Two who I have my eyes on are Bama Powell (6-3, 308) at the nose and Dan Terrana (6-6, 260) who seems ideally built to be an edge rusher.
We needed lots of help and this looks like a good class.
To me our top need was size on the DL and we certainly have upgraded that. We lost alot of RB's but replaced that as well.
Nice job by the coaching staff.
