Wynn to the portal. Damn. 

 

Ugh.  Already thin with big bodies on the DL.

 

And 94.

Writing was maybe on the wall when he was with the backups at the spring game, but I agree that's not one I wanted to see. I thought he was solid last year, never hurts to have rotational guys. Made some plays in the spring game too, but the 2nd team OL was very outmatched.

Always one or two surprises but I expect mostly healthy attrition.

Don't know if there is any validity to this or not, but seeing theories that we could put some grad students (Thompson, Reimer, TyRob, etc) on NIL scholarships since a) grad students take less classes and b) masters level classes can be taken online for cheap.  This would mean that tuition would drop from about $25k for an undergrad to around $5k for a grad student.

 

I've been in the "NIL scholarships don't work for a lot of reasons" camp, but doing it for grad students with 1 year left does make some sense when you look at it.

 

County Scholarships are BACK, folks!

Good attrition. And Scott frost is a dolt.

This one is interesting.

 

I swore I saw an interview where he said he wanted to get to NFL and he was excited to work with a coach that had been there (I'm paraphrasing).  Maybe it wasn't him.

 

If he doesn't have the stuff or doesn't want to be a part of it, I'm glad he's moving on.

Yeah this one stings.  Didn't expect to see his name go in.  Hopefully we can get a transfer portal guy for the d-line and hope he enjoys success wherever he goes.

For Wynn, he was realistically the 3rd/4th string nose behind Hutmacher, Robinson, and Jeudy and I really don't see us putting 2 true bigs on the field at the same time. Maybe Robinson or Buckley paired with a nose, but that's going to be Hutmacher/Jeudy before it would've been Wynn. So moving on is probably best but I wish we had more proven guys there.

 

Hardy leaving isn't a shock, I was surprised he was in the rotation with the starters for the spring game. But we had some guys out/limited and have a lot of WRs coming in.

So I wonder if Wynn is the victim of the new D design - only one tackle - falling behind Polar Bear and Ty?

I thought of that as well but are we absolutely sure that he was third in line to rotate/play behind Ty and Polar?? I thought he was a pivotal piece to the success of the d-line.
