Judicious use of the portal will mitigate the dropoff in 2023.

Thornton at WR - Speed kills
Norman-Lott at DL - Coach Garner target twice so you know he wil be good
and Campbell at OL - the OT we needed

If I calculate this right... we might still be in the market for another LB and Safety? Seems like everything else has been addressed. That's if they are comfortable with the QB situation. If we can get the same performance consistently I'm a huge Milton fan.

I believe a corner is the remaining “must get”
We have our LB, Kennnan Pili from BYU

Could ‘23 actually not be a rebuild year?

I think 2023 is the most pivotal year for UT ever. If they can be competitive next year, then the recruiting will pull them through and 2024 will be ‘the’ year. Much like K. Smart in to 2016 and Saban in 2008(?)

I’ve been saying 3-4 losses. But when I look at our schedule, I can’t find more than 2 teams who should beat us. Our offense is going to regress, at least a little. But the D should be vastly improved, so it might not matter.

If our offense could score 35 and hold the other team to 30....I'd be good with that.

Excellent points gentlemen. The coming season may not be much of a step back.

I'm there with you.  Want to say 9-3 but its hard to pin a third loss, and for that matter we have uga at home next year.

Junior at the moment would be our 3rd toughest game given how they finished, but it really depends on which Rattler shows up.  Given what I have seen from him in interviews and youtube with his helmet off, I suspect there are some recreational pharmaceuticals in his past and/or present, and he is just dodging the drug tests somehow.  Or so it seems to me anyway.
