Now that the school year is finishing up for a lot of the 2016 signees I've been hearing good things about almost all of them on track to make it in for the second session of summer of school. I know that it is highly unlikely that the entire class makes it in, since almost every year there are around 3-6 kids that no show (including weird circumstances like Desean Holmes), but as of now I've heard that there is only one recruit that's questionable as things stand now.
For reference, at this point of the year, I usually hear rumblings of at least one or two names that are borderline and maybe two more names that are unlikely to make it in. That list then grows anywhere from 2-6 as Mountain West media day nears and Rocky reveals who won't be on the fall depth chart.
So to have just one name pop up, not to mention a sign of confidence in the rest of the class to be make it in for summer school, is a very good sign.
Obviously, I'll withhold the name until it becomes absolutely certain that it won't happen and I hope this thread doesn't turn into a name-guessing game. This is just to keep you guys informed.
I know things can change between now and mid-summer but, again, this is a very positive sign. I also don't think that it is a coincidence and that perhaps it is a reflection of recruiting multi-sport athletes, which the coaching staff emphasized this year, as the signees have pretty much been forced into keeping up in school in order to handle their course workload throughout the school year. I'll be sure to ask Rocky about that if things continue in this route.
