A very strong class just got even stronger. Like I said above, we've been a little behind in recruiting the last couple years. When you have a coaching change that sometimes happens. But this 2013 class is awesome and is locked down early -- in the spring of 2012. That is EXCELLENT recruiting. Congrats to the coaching staff!
FYI -- here is a run down of some of the top programs. Number of commitments is impacted on the number of scholarships available by any school for any given year -- but you can see Dayton has pulled its recruiting (both timeline and quality of recruits since the best players commit early) up to the highest level for the 2013 class and can now start locking down 2014. Number of 2013 committed recruits:
