For sure gone, likely gone, up in the air

I know a place where we store those. See @UrineDaloop for directions.

He can join the disgruntled one in a private room.

Doesn't every team lose starters and contributers now, that's how I've remembered it the last few years

Don't think it's that big of surprise to say we will either

Big time programs don't lose starters typically unless they're just not happy with the system they're playing in.

 

[cway313]

I don’t want to blow up specific spots so I’ll say I expect a wr, rb, te, potential cb, more than one qb. I’ll be disappointed if one or two play out as it seems it will

If we're losing starters and guys that could be starting next year, the better question to ask isn't "who" but "why?".

More money?
Better development?
Want to win bigger and guaranteed a starting position at a better program?

Whatever the answer is, losing guys who are penciled in as starters is a big concern.

Yes.

I can’t imagine at least two running backs won’t leave. Parrish, Allen, Fletcher and Chaney are all good enough to be starters on other programs and not have to split that many reps. Wouldn’t be shocked if Citizen or CJ left either.

 

[Manfred_Cane]

Serious contributors leaving, sucks, but they can be replaced. i think Mario has relatively nailed the portal additions, mainly this past offseason. Just needs to prove he can nail QB/DT/S.

Miami is not currently a big time program.

Imma be honest outside of The OL and Fletcher no loss on offense would be significant. Imma be honest again no loss on defense besides Kiko, Bain or Damari would be significant. Go ahead and fight.

Meh I’ll fight you on it.

Restrepo would be significant. George would be significant. Even Young would be significant to me imo. We can say “oh we have WRs coming in”, but 2024 needs results, not potential. Can’t afford to go 8-4 or worse, and I wouldn’t love to see true freshman WRs out there with an immeasurable amount of pressure to produce.

Others that fit the “significant” category would be some OL pieces, JHH, Wes, DPJ, TVD (already a given imo). Plus the guys you listed.

I know . Mario really made a mess of things these past 2 years and made things WAY more difficult on himself than it needed to be.

10 regular season wins next year minimum. Honestly that should have been the expectation this year if Mario just had a decent year last year (like 7 or 8 wins) and not all time bad like 5-7.

I won't celebrate any of those departures but all could be replaced imo. My bigger issue is I dont trust that we would bring in significant replacements.

If we lose OL starters or contributors other than to the NFL that is a really bad sign considering the OL is Mario's bread and butter.

 

[WestGA'Cane]

Just watched the post-game presser where Kiko was non-committal about future plans. That would be a blow for sure.
Look, I have no problem with OP's list - looked by-and-large realistic to me. We'll all be tracking this thing (roster turnover in the coming weeks/months), so no problem with someone going on the record with their thoughts. Not like he shouted "FIRE" in a theater as some would have you believe. Fairly comprehensive list for someone labeled a 'troll'.
How 'bout this: if you don't like OP steer clear, or maybe start a slurper thread about the topic.

 

[canesbaby]

Likely candidates among the potential “returning starters and serious contributors” that we could lose to the portal (not NFL):

JHH
Mesidor
Harvey
Flagg
Brown
Lee
Restrepo
Horton
Arroyo
Skinner
Brashard
TVD
Jacurri
Chaney
Parrish
Citizen

Some of these guys could be grad transfers (e.g., Lee and Brown).

JHH, Mesidor, X and Lee would hurt. The others I can understand as a sign of the times we live in.

 

[mavericksouth]

So....the entire team is gone then lol.

 

[Bird4um]

You lost me when you brought up our 5 Star OL who just had an amazing year on one of the best OL in the country.

Go back to bed

I’m sure going to the draft is included.

 

[ssvir]

Everything isn't sunshine and rainbows clowns. Snug up close to that 7-5 we'll be here a while.

It will never be sunshine and rainbows but if you can't see an improvement in the team then you are just a jackass .... oh wait.

 

[cway313]

When did Cway313 post that the team had no improvement? Would love to see that bump....oh wait.

 

[ssvir]

How do you know what contributions I've made *****?

With your insane levels of mopiness, I highly doubt you contribute a penny.

 

[taz]

Yes and it won’t just be dead weight.

Any idea as to why? Why aren’t they banding together and saying we are close we can come back and be special. That never happens here, FSU got there guys to come back and look. Leaving for NFL is one thing but just transferring, has Mario already lost the room this bad in 2 years? Pathetic

, oh ok.
