If you remember, this time last year the buzz was that Murray was going to flip, Daylon Mack was a done deal and Lampkin was doing his damnedest to recruit for the Horns. Clairington, Johnson and Cherry were also part of last year's class. Remember the Fab 5? One made it on the team to start the season. The team was down to 79 scholarship players before they game Matty Merrick a full scholly. The hype was certainly there last year, but in a lot of ways, it fell apart.

All things considered, I am hoping to see players at positions of need sign on NSD, all of them get through the clearinghouse and the team not be below 83 scholarship players when the season starts. Those three benchmarks will be how I judge Charlie Strong's recruiting efforts.

"Stellar by any definition" shouldn't leave the team with gaping holes like last year's team had and shouldn't have 20% of the recruiting class not make it to the first day of classes.

Let's be brutally honest. Charlie has to deliver this year. The first step of that process would be translating the recruiting hype into a solid signing class on NSD and getting himself some momentum. Momentum will buy him some goodwill with the alumni and be a solid first step into getting him out from under the black cloud that is hanging over him. Then he needs to get them all through the clearinghouse and on campus.

I like the hype. Things seem like they are under control. I just am not buying into any hype until Charlie shows his recruiting style translates from mid-major Louisville to a major program like Texas. We just need to get this program turned around and we need to see some solid signs that it is happening like closing out a recruiting cycle with some unabashedly positive momentum.
This year is nothing like last year, those types of personalities are not involved.

From the article:

The school has received a Notice of Allegations from the NCAA enforcement staff alleging roughly 30 violations in football, women’s basketball and track and field, sources told Yahoo. It is unclear at present what the breakdown is in terms of violations by sport.

Yeah I read the article. I really want to see what the actual allegations are. I my gut feel the NCAA does not do jack. See Cam Newton and Manziel 

 
If anything actually gets proved at this point.
