Good article from a plugged-in dude who worked for Mario and led the Portal rankings for 247:

Transfer portal 2026: 10 players who could shake up college football offseason

A wave of quarterback movement, coaching changes, and blue-chip frustration is about to reshape college football

www.cbssports.com

 

[TemplarCane]

No Lagway? He seems to be on all the portal-possible lists.

Would not mind OT Jordan Seaton if Markel Bell opts for the draft.

WR Cam Coleman could likely turn pro.

 

[Ispyin]

Despite a lot of hopes it’s interesting that he did not have Cal QB JKS on this

I have said I don’t think he’s leaving - his absence makes me more convinced

 

[TheATLCane]

Lots of Miami ties with some of those listed. No Cane mentioned either

 

[jsy]

Just glad baby Jesus isn’t on that list

 

[jsy]

We need to go an get that north Texas qb and cam Coleman and call it a day

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

Pull a Cam Ward with Sorsby and convince him not to enter draft and instead increase his draft status.

 

[RozayCane]

Bring me North Texas QB and his HC as OC

We could use Seaton nevermind what Bell does

Cam Coleman is a true soph., unless he has plans to challenge the 3 year rule he has to play one more year.

TE needs to be addressed at an extremely high level this offseason

Why not let one of the young guns play

 

[davidb1]

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[Fly1]

Besides WR and QB

Need at least 2 starter-capable DTs

At least 1 starter capable DE

They havent beaten out the guys playing now and they are terrible. Lets actually get better at position instead of complaining next year on outside of playoff pillow fighting with acc dreg.

We need superstar talent on offense.. Cam should make us hungry for that..

The coach will be getting paid as a P4 HC, IMO. Mestemaker will either follow him or get paid big, much like the Duke QB this year.

Gilbert needs weight. Schott has been hurt. Carver has been hurt.

Sounds like we need to portal. I agree

D@mn you!!!

 

[Angry Ibis]

Not sure I can trust it with no mentions of Lyle JoJo or Damari

 

[Memnon]

What needs to be decided above all, is whether or not Mario is gonna stay married to the "tUFf aNd fiZiCuLL!" philosophy.

If he is, then he needs to lean into it.

Load up on RB's, get multiple blocking TE's, a mobile QB & an OC that runs Pistol/Read-Option Offense.

Otherwise, he's gonna have to move out of the way & stop imposing on the Offense. Let the OC man the ship.
