I always thought he’d do well here, but he got recruited over. It happens. We got some studs in that room.
Yes, it helps us.
We were sitting on 22 ICs (we used 3 for guys who enrolled in August 2021). We can take as many as 29, assuming that 7 guys leave via the Portal. We will still have to get down to 85, which may likely involve more than 7 guys leaving, or some combination thereof. For instance, a guy could retire from football, and not even enter the Portal. That would help us on qualifiers (85) but not ICs (22-29 max).
I'm just going to trust Mario at this point, I'm sure he knows a lot more about who is likely to leave than any of the CIS posters do. We'll get down to 85. There has not been a single year that we have failed to do so.
And, in all honesty, I don't even think we'll get up to the full 29, even assuming that we could have done so. I just don't think there is enough remaining "quality" that Mario wants to bring in.
We have 14 HS commits. Let's say we get Conerly, and we are up to 15 signees. Right now, we have 5 transfers. So that is 20 guys. We would need to take 9 more guys from the Portal to hit our theoretical max of 29, and I just don't think Mario wants to use 9 ICs on guys with less than full eligibility remaining. I suspect that Mario will roll some ICs over to the 2023 cycle.
Now, if the replacement ICs are "use it or lose it", then maybe we load up.

Back in the day a guy like this would contribute somewhere on the team, like special teams. I’ve gotten to the point that guys like him are pushed out snd we end of my ragones and Murphy’s having to play special teams!

If it stayed that way we get never get Jalean, Rambo, Bubba, King, Osburn, TS2Back in the day a guy like this would contribute somewhere on the team, like special teams. I’ve gotten to the point that guys like him are pushed out snd we end of my ragones and Murphy’s having to play special teams!
This was the clarification I needed. Thanks!Nah it does. The transfer rule was for people who leave after Dec 15 or last day of semester. So like we dont get an IC for Pope because he left mid year.
Eh Ragone was maybe the best LB last yearBack in the day a guy like this would contribute somewhere on the team, like special teams. I’ve gotten to the point that guys like him are pushed out snd we end of my ragones and Murphy’s having to play special teams!
He looks like he's going to cry.
I say Cody BrownDo we have predictions to who enters the portal? I have $5 on Worsham.
By my count, that puts us at 88 scholarship guys. Hodges was one of my likely exits. 6 TEs is too many and he was probably last in that group.
I imagine 6-7 more leave and we add OL, CB, and LB via portal.
Nope we get them but keep some of the guys we lost thus hurting depth. This is a player hat I know lots of folks talked good things about. It’s all good thoIf it stayed that way we get never get Jalean, Rambo, Bubba, King, Osburn, TS2
