Actually, I am impressed with how many we have signed and the quality considering the transition we are in. I think when it comes to PL schools, the great majority are coming because of the school. But the fact have had a pretty well established tradition helps.

Concur- your 3-4 alignment last year required 2 DTs to stop A/B gap runs. The big agile kids that can tackle on the interior are hard to find. Particularly with the grades and SAT required for Lehigh. The 2019 DT signed is my step grandson and lives with me. He had 2 Ivies and several FCS in south come hard at him last couple of weeks. Wrestling tourneys are good place to find these type of athletes. This is my first post but I've been monitoring since Sept to help my kid thru this process.

Welcome. I've watched a lot of video of Dean. Transition is rarely quick but he has all the tools. Size,agility and upper body strength. Pretty good wrestler too. :D
A great signing for Lehigh and Dean.
I've found over the years that one never has enough DTs.Right now we have 3 including Dean.
I note he is our 2nd Ga wrestler on the DL. :D

welcome aboard, considering what we graduated, (Lynn, Morrow and Kauffman, your grandson should get the opportunity to play early in his career, keep hitting the weight room

Thanks guys...love the skill kids in class..would like to see a little more beef on both LOS- you need it against Ivy/Colgate types...Holy Cross got some giants on their OL...good group from Atlanta area and I don't think you're done...new HC will likely set priorities for Jan-Feb cycle.
