63 full rides.  Split amongst 83 players but a total of 63 rides.  Total team limit for active players, I believe, is 125...travel limited is set by the CAA...think it is in the 50's.   

Thanks.  I thought it was something like that.  I knew the total scholarships and divisions.  Was wondering how many, if any, kids that are walk-ons will be allowed to stay [or would want to stay] with others being brought in.

Ricky Johns lists himself as a WR  U Albany on his twitter page btw.

Well, we did go four wide quite often.  So, I can forsee a rotation of:

Tyler Odekoven 6' 180- 3 yrs eligibility

Jalen Rima 6'1 205 (Northern Iowa)- 1 yr eligibility

Chris Potts 6'3 196 (NEO- same school as Nyc Burns) - 2 yrs eligibilty

Ricky Johns 6'3 195 (West Virginia)- 3 yrs eligibility

Dev Holmes 5'9 160- 3 yrs eligibility

Then you have the RS Kids who were highly rated (if they come back):.  All four years left
 

Mike Gray

Jordan Irizarry

Ricky Gamble

 

Quite a competitive bunch...and JUC will have some good / great players to throw to for the next three years.

Agree 100%.  Should be a great year for OFF, plus Mofor and James at RB.  Depends on the O Line............

 I’m happy to say I’ve received a PWO from the University of Albany!  today.

Wonder what is going on with kicker who committed earlier.  He didn't sign on early day.  Maybe will on Feb 5th singing day.

Committed to Delaware State!

Thanks.  Another that I haven't heard anything about recently. A couple of coaches were watching him a while ago.  Is it a commitment or an offer from UA?  Can't sign his NLI until Feb. 5.  He's getting congrats from a bunch of folks.  Maybe he has committed??  Hard to tell by his twitter account.

I think Jackson Parker was a mid year admit.  I also think #25 is Jose Lopez - a RB from PA.

In terms of numbers, I think the recruits usually wear their HS numbers.

 Roy Alexander MAY be a mid-year transfer too.  Looks like him on the far right of Team Zenelovic in the Team Draft from yesterday.  Scroll back to page 16 - He was / is a Brighton Academy, Maine student!
