Some notable names missing from the roster.

Just put that in OL topic. Ha.  Does this open more scholarships they can offer now for the Feb signing day or does it not count until next year?

Disappointing about Raridon, as highly rated as he was.

A few more names confirmed off the roster from the JournalStar.

 

 

Quote

Walk-on offensive lineman Collin Shefke is no longer listed on the roster, nor is senior walk-on wide receiver Todd Honas or walk-on offensive lineman Mitchell Balenger, whose name has been in the NCAA's transfer portal for several weeks. 

 

With the five players removed from the roster, the online version shows 160 players. 

 

That includes 86 scholarship players, one more than the 85-man maximum. NU must hit that mark by the end of the offseason and can still add up to two more players for its 2020 recruiting class.

Injures were an issue.

Any guesses on the last player who will be processed/transfer? McQuitty and Pickering come to mind for me

Mcquitty makes some sense.  Pickering does not.

Well we have 2 more spots to fill in the class, so probably more than 1.

Why is Pickering getting processed? 

[Mavric 24,218]

I'm counting us as having 87 as Gifford will be on scholarship in the fall.  So still (at least) two more departures.

 

Jaylin Bradley seems pretty likely to me.  McQuitty a possibility.  Tony Butler a possibility.  Usually a surprise young guy or two.

I'd say Jaylin Bradley. He was a reach in the first place and has ridden pine the past two years while a walk-on got considerable reps. Now we should actually have some depth. Think he'll head someplace like Northern Iowa. 

 

Coming off an injury-plagued season where he did next to nothing I would think demand for Pickering is down considerably. If I'm him I wait and see how our ST's shake-up works out. 

 

McQuitty wouldn't be a surprise, he'd make a clean-sweep of 4*'s from our 2017 class leaving.  But here we have another coaching shake-up. I would guess that he rides-out spring ball and then sees where he stands.

Some guys who aren't gonna see the field are just happy to have a scholarship and ride out their days in college. I suspect Bradley might be one of those guys.

I could see Bradley going north for more playing time.

Raridon is retiring from football altogether and is leaving the sport to focus on getting his degree in architecture.  Forgot that he was Scott Raridon's son who started back when we had the triplets and led the nation in rushing and scoring.
