Only 1 or 2 that I’d want back. Not that more aren’t better players, but feel like we’ve already replace most of them.

Barnes and Dozier stand out as a surprise at not landing somewhere already.

Where’d McCantos end up? Last I saw, he hadn’t committed

Thought Dozier was heading to NC State? Barnes is shocking but you tail off the way he did and it creates questions. Would like to see him back another year, as well as Dozier. Development could help them.

If dozier doesn’t commit to NC State, something negative stands out. He has visited Kansas, OU and now NC State. Does he think too highly of himself? Possibly.

Barnes visited North Texas but nothing beyond that publicly. He should at least be considered as a dynamic punt returner, which is valuable to the right team.

Perhaps the coaches realized he dropped too many.

I wonder how many of these players have awoken to the reality that there’s no crystal carriage for them, just a pumpkin on cinder blocks in the front yard?

You always have to keep in mind that today the door swings both ways. The school can tell you that you don’t fit into our future plans. So my guess was that a good number were told that so they didn’t really have a much of a choice.
