Doug Marrone is hoping he won't have to deal with a short roster again anytime soon.
The Orange officially announced their 2010 signing class of 31 prospects today. That should help restock a cupboard that had gone, if not bare, then lightly filled after several dismissals, transfers and other departures after Marrone took over as head coach before last season.
Obviously, there will have to be some massaging here, perhaps with some grayshirts, in order to meet the NCAA maximum of 25 incoming scholarship players. But that's a more enviable problem than needing to find enough bodies to practice and play games.
The class is spread out among positions and features nine players from New York and five from Florida. You can see the whole list with bios here. Marrone will hold a press conference to discuss the class at 4 p.m.
