2026 DL Logan Nagle commits to Miami

We absolutely have to be pushing out Bacon or Sainteus or Kennedy right? I get that we can signed increased numbers and what not but no chance we are taking 8 defensive linemen.
Especially with a couple bigger names we are trying to flip. Something's gotta give.

The two true DL we got this week are ranked below 500. Here are our DL signees going back to 2018 that were ranked below 500:

Patrick Joyner
Jordan Miller
Jared Harrison-Hunte
Jalar Holley
Quentin Williams
Allan Haye
Ahmad Moten
Joshua Horton
Daylen Russell
Donta Simpson
Mykah Newton

My point is the odds of them being difference makers are slim. This board loves to convince themselves that every commit is a beast, regardless of ranking.
Success with DL and OL is largely about hitting on evals. You could probably compile a similar list of guys over the past 7 years who were ranked above 500 who didn’t turn out to be difference makers.

Find the right guys, develop them and then see who pans out. Throw numbers at these positions and let the chips fall where they may.
 
I don’t think we are pushing Kennedy out lol! Do you guys not see that Blay and another DT has been hurting and how we have zero depth? They wanna stack and develop D lineman in particular DTs no way they took those kids and are gonna push them out. Guys transfer. We can’t continue to get caught with our pants down

I mean they could still want a NT build with just a different player. Broughton for instance
 
Cant have a 6'5 white dlineman and not say he could end up like this fella
