Well, even prior to this decommit I was thinking we need to stock up on more corners. I'm bullish for '20 + '21 (CB will be a strength), but the younger classes look thin. I know it's WAY early... but just for discussion:
2020: Hankins (sr.), Moss (jr.), Brents, Roberts, Johnson (so.), McKinney, Harris, Deasfernandes (fr.).
2021: We only lose Hankins for certain, so unless someone jumps pro early we still have 4 solid CB's
2022: More likely that some CB leaves early for NFL or lack of PT. Unknown is whether McKinney, Harris, and Deasfernandes will be high-level B1G CB's. Beyond them, we need to reload...
I feel safety is more stocked, assuming Lawson, Bracy, Castro, + Craddieth, plus the walk-on from CA and now DeJean, are pegged for safety. And yes, part of my confidence level in safety is that we have a history with successful walk-ons and the above scholarship guys seemed like good recruiting wins. Thoughts?
