Or if we are releasing players like they do in Kansas State.

Sometimes players get asked to leave and I think it would do us all good to remember it. We don't hear about it much, because I doubt it helps the job prospects of any player to tell us all they were fired instead of leaving voluntarily.

Meanwhile, a new offer for a DE.

HUGE get and I love seeing the Pickerington kids come in as a current resident.

I see he tagged an agency in the post, anyone in the know have any idea if that suggests we are spending some NIL money here?

Wither lit is up for the Laurier (Canada) Golden Hawks this year

I think one of the most irreplaceable players is Jalen Thomeson. He played the sub LB so well

HUGE!

Glad to hear. Welcome “back” Nemo!

Surprised. And elated.

That's a huge keep. Now if they can find someone to replace Crable...

We're gonna miss Thomeson quite a bit, but maybe I'm crazy, we always seem to have a stud back there every year. I'm not as concerned. DJ Walker is a beast and still here. He's gonna be a big help to whomever gets slotted in next to him. I'd love to squeeze another year out of Adonis. He's the last of a dying breed. Four year starter. Same team.

Chamberlain (Came from Air Force last season) could probably step in. I'm still unclear of JUCO rules (those years don't count against eligibility anymore or its case by case?), but Mundy (Two years at Hutch, after coming from Miami) could be an option as well.

This gotta be some good news.

We assuming it’s Rosa or some other running back?

Seems a good guess.

Wow….would be a huge get…I was confused with the LBer but since it was the running back coach that would be enormous if it’s Rosa.
