The D line is probably the deepest position on the team and a lot of those are freshmen, RS freshmen and sophomores. You only have 13 scholarship players in the class. It's not a bold of move as you must think. 2 Quote Link to comment

There are currently 7 "freshman" DLs on the roster. Plus two sophomores. And probably most of the true freshman will redshirt this year. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, still not use to this COVID roster where Hutmacher, Black, Robinson, Newsom all have 4-5 left in the program if they wish. 2 Quote Link to comment

Need to win..now. We're likely going to finish the class without a single 4* player. Let's hope we see substantial improvement and next year's class is better. Quote Link to comment
RichardHangslow Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Is it possible that since Covid the ratings are a little off of what they should be since HS players couldn't play a full year and or get to camps to improve their ratings on recruiting sites. Diamonds in the rough 1 Quote Link to comment

Kayak Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Most university budgets are going to be able to keep every scholarship player that received a free eligibility year from last season. The transfer portal will be overflowed for the next few seasons until it’s all flushed through. Quote Link to comment

You’re correct because most FBS programs will be in the same situation. It was great they received a year back, but it may not be where they want it to be when they are juniors or seniors 1 Quote Link to comment

If they are deep on the depth chart, a lot will hang it up and get on with their lives. Quote Link to comment

Many will have to no matter what because there isn’t going to be room for all the transfers at the lower levels either 1 Quote Link to comment

But there have been a ton of guys transfer every year that don't go to FBS programs for reasons that had nothing to do with extra eligibility. Quote Link to comment

I heard it directly from a college head coach during a football camp. It will take time to shake out. Quote Link to comment
