BCN reporting he could reclassify for 2020 (grades).  We are starting to see the position Brannen is in being late to the game.  Some of the better players that were still out there we are finding out why they may have been still out there.  Guys like Todd and Williams etc. 


There are still more to evaluate.  The grad transfers are starting to look like better options because you know a little more about what you are getting.  Unless the HS kid is a late bloomer....there are likely reasons why other teams have backed off.  It's not easy finding diamonds in the rough, under recruited talent, or late bloomers.  Not this late in the game anyway.


Suddenly Davenport and Vogt don't seem too bad all things considered.  Coach had plenty of time to evaluate both on ability and character etc.  You have to at least like the idea Brannen is not in desperation mode and will back off of players even though he needs the bodies.  I think the prevailing opinion was that Todd and Williams were better gets than Davenport and Vogt...but then again...maybe not after all the facts are in. 


It's still hard to tell what kind of recruiting chops Brannen has for higher profile guys he has had a chance to build relationships with...but he seems as calculated as advertised.
