Because of the sanctions, they are restricted to a maximum of 15 scholarships for next year. They can recruit early admits next year that will count towards the 13 class. But, any roster attrition due to injury, suspensions, academics, transfers, and players leaving for the NFL, will cause them great pain.
That's what I thought but this article quotes him as saying he can save those scholarships for next year. Maybe he's lying. Honesty is not his forte.

As Extra Point said, early admits for 2014 count toward the 2013 class. So, in effect, he can save those scholarships for next year, as long as he can convince enough of next year's recruits to show up early (as he did this year -- six of this year's recruits showed up early, and were counted toward 2012).
