Re: Portal time 25-26
At least our DII guys have played a lot and received all conference honors. Hope it translates over to the Sun Belt, more comfortable with a LB transitioning than OL but hope they both excel.

Re: Portal time 25-26
Unless we’re playing 7 on 7 now, we seem to be short linemen, particularly on the defensive side.

That young man went from P4 (Pitt) to G5 (App) to Wofford (FCS) in the course of two years.

Re: Portal time 25-26
At least in terms of production at other schools, this LB corps may be the best collective unit we've seen in a while.biggie wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 2:33 pmI see 1 INT in '25 as well on their website.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 2:22 pm2025- First Team All-G-MAC...

Re: Portal time 25-26
Probably be our strength, which makes sense with Colton Phares returning and DJ as our DChapapp wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 3:05 pmAt least in terms of production at other schools, this LB corps may be the best collective unit we've seen in a while.biggie wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 2:33 pmI see 1 INT in '25 as well on their website.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 2:22 pm2025- First Team All-G-MAC...

Re: Portal time 25-26
We have picked up a lot of DB's in this portal, surely a healthy spring and fall competition will see the cream rise and we can have a really good defensive backfield for the first time in a long time.

Re: Portal time 25-26
I hope they have some DTs and Edge guys lined up to come in. Looks like to me we have a current deficit of 5.
KICK ASS!!!

Re: Portal time 25-26
As of now we have DeNigel Cooper, Nick Campbell, Caleb Sandstrom, Aiden Benton, Caleb Pitts and Kaden Ellis returning. We have 2 incoming transfers. And we have 6 incoming freshmen. So we have 14 to work with and we probably promised the freshmen a chance to compete. 2 of the edge guys recruited out of high school are rated pretty high.CornCobPipes wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 7:37 pmI hope they have some DTs and Edge guys lined up to come in.

Re: Portal time 25-26

Re: Portal time 25-26
To your point, we had 16 on the roster last season, so hopefully we get two big boys in the middle.311neers wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 8:48 pmNot enough IMO. Real small upfront.

Re: Portal time 25-26
I do assume they are related. Same age, same, hometown, and same high school. But don't see any articles on them.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Mon Jan 12, 2026 4:43 pmIs he related to the other Henderson? They have the same mustache
