Three commits from Riverside CC this weekend!

Two defensive ends and a linebacker. Per Greg Biggins tweet.

Plus the corner who committed yesterday is also from Riverside City College.

Does anyone know if any of these kids have a redshirt available or are they all 2 to play 2 guys?

Thanks

I don't know. But, I would assume that coming off a 3-9 season, the defensive JC's are being brought in to play now. The offense will be good next season. If the defense can improve just a little, this team will be going bowling.

I believe I read that the cornerback who flipped from OSU has a red shirt available? But I just got online and saw the news about the other three. So I haven't even had time to read up on them yet.

For the most part I THINK you want a JC To be able to come in and play right away. However, as we all know, SOMETIMES it can take a while for a JC to get fully acclimated to D1, Pac12 level ball, especially at certain positions.

So it would be nice to have a red shirt option, if any of them did take a while to get up to speed. Best case scenario? Probably if they could come in at semester and have both spring ball and fall camp to see how they fit. And then make the determination about any possible red shirt.

If they make the two deep at their position...they PLAY.

Britton, do you know if any of these kids will be able to transfer in time for spring ball?

There's already a 10 minute response in regards to the gentlemen from Riverside gracing the Palouse with their presence. This is just like buttah...I fear I'm about to cry....please...talk amongst yourselves..

I reported the news from a source, so I haven't been able to talk to any of them yet, but I believe they'll sign on Dec. 17. I typically don't call recruits until their visits are over so I'll have more from them when they get home tomorrow afternoon.

If these kids can't come in and play right away, they got the wrong guys. Jc kids aren't coming to a 3 win team with a lousy defense to redshirt.

The juco CB will play right away.The information i heard on him that he will be enrolling in January . He has a lot of talent and that allows him to get acclimated and fit in with his teammates.He is very good,quick fast ,rotates hips well and breaks well to the ball.

Agreed. These kids need to immediately crack the 2-deep and contribute on special teams right out of the chute.

If we're gonna go the JC route, most of hem better be starters or we're spinning our wheels.

That would be ideal, obviously, but I don't think the standard should be starter or bust necessarily. JC kids can also be brought in to add immediate help on the depth chart. For example, if you have a couple of solid defensive ends or cornerbacks starting, but nothing behind them, JC kids can fill gaps and add immediate help to your special teams.
