Title: Doesn't seem we have much momentum in the portal...
Post by: SmokeyJoe on January 13, 2022, 04:29:08 EST
 :dunno: need some OL, LB, and DB, or I'm not sure we'll be much better next year. Anybody have any positive news?  :patriot:

The majority of what I’ve seen on VolQuest’s forum has been talk of offensive players. Maybe I’ve just missed the defensive stuff. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I have no idea....but I've read we aren't hitting the portal very hard?

If true...maybe we can move a few of our 44 wide receivers over to DB's and rush ends

I've "heard" that we may have self imposed a 5 scholarship reduction, which may be a factor in the portal pursuits, if true

Interesting. Makes sense.

I'm not a fan of this, but that would explain a lot.

It has more or less been confirmed (doubt an "official" announcement will be forthcoming).

Assuming 80 is the number then all the recent entries by players, who weren't going to see the field in any case, opens up room to pull players in from the portal

I still see us adding a OT, DL, DB and a LB from the portal
Also, expect we are not done with HS players as well (1, maybe 2 more in Feb)
