We have Sweatt, Williams, Ramsey coming back, who all started.
Dennel Nix was an unknown who signed in February out of high school and is now being courted by OK State and Oklahoma. So, I do believe OL recruiting from high school is better than it was in the past.

Re: Portal time 25-26
I think that’s part of the strategy as well to recruit so heavily out of HS. If we want to be a developmental program in this new era, we have to offer opportunities for players to play right away - even OL and DL.

Burris was all conference. And once again, we hope Poindexter can return.

Re: Portal time 25-26
Assume we are still wanting DL and OL? We think RB or rely on the main 2 currently in house? Seems we need more big outside receiver(s) as well? I am interested to see what happens at RB. We hosted Peyton Jones (Duke) who committed to Liberty. I assume and hope there could be some silent activity g...

Re: Portal time 25-26
One thing I LOVE about Mac Walters - Scout team award winner similar to Rondo Porter. Shows he is not afraid of working hard in practice and leading the right way to earn his chances. Walters won the award twice.

Re: Portal time 25-26
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPJ7tRarf3Y I shouldn’t have watched the highlights. I’m sold. 12-0. He has a few plays where he’s behind the play and catches up to block multiple people. Pretty agile! My favorite part of him is his desire for contact. He was a hockey player in high school as well.

Re: Portal time 25-26
Likely due to coaching changes (see coaching thread regarding Keith Jones), Saint Farrior is back in the portal. Need about 10 DLineman it feels like. OL and DL was a position of huge emphasis for HS recruiting so there probably isn’t as many spots open as most think. There could be some lumps but ...

Re: Portal time 25-26
Any idea what qb’s we are looking at? Henry Hasselbeck visited. I assume a few other P4 depth guys have as well. This is where it gets tricky because most will assume singleton as the starter. Little surprise here considering the existing relationship between DLo and Matt, but Henry Hasselbeck has ...

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Nothing official at the moment so I would be very glad to be wrong on this, but Keith Jones (DL coach) is expected to move to a new opportunity. A disappointing loss during a critical time. Waiting until after Jan 16 would have been nice Unfortunately for us, it is likely a situation of being offer...

Re: Portal time 25-26
Does anyone know how many spots we have left open given TP losses, TP adds, HS recruiting adds. Where we are in terms of roster limit or preferred roster limit? My best guess, without diving too deep into it, is that we have at least 20 spots left. Quick math: Departing Seniors - 20+ HS adds - 27 P...
