I think Golden is having a talk with alot of these kids. He's probley saying, "You can stay, but you probley won't start".
This sounds nice but I don't see it. The idea that he's going to take a bunch of freshmen or guys who didn't start over these guys this year and start them over guys that are clearly his best players seems bizarre. This is wishful thinking.

Who is better than Vernon, Washington, Streeter and even a healthy Forton? He's not going to tell his best players to leave... Some of these guys may not want to go through the rebuilding process and would rather take their chances in the league... Golden will not tell his best wideout, DE, OL, and DT to leave or he wont start...
