It seems that NU has a lot of interest from wide receivers this recruiting class. How many scholarships are available?
Seniors (3):
Jordan Westerkamp
Brandon Reilly
Alonzo Moore
Juniors (1):
De'Mornay Pierson-El
Sophomores (2):
Stanley Morgan Jr.
Zack Darlington
Freshman (3):
Lavan Alston
Derrion Grim
JD Spielman
Commitments (2):
Keyshawn Johnson Jr.
Jaevon McQuitty
Assuming we're currently at the optimal level, we should have three scholarships available due to the departing seniors; however, there are already two commitments and it seems there are many more still on the board with legit NU interest - Tyjon Lindsey, Jamire Calvin, Maurice Bell, among others. Obviously if you can get a blue chipper like Lindsey you make room no matter what, but what about the other guys?
I think we might see the scarcity of available scholarships entice some of the lower rated prospects to make the commitment more quickly than they might have otherwise. In the end, I think NU has four scholarship WRs in this class, which is actually too much to allocate to the position in my opinion, but due to the quality of prospects, it probably makes sense to do it anyway.
