If we’re looking for back ups go get Noah Walters

Did not know that. Not sure how that can be, but ok.

After thinking about it, are you saying they are guaranteed a roster spot? Or a scholarship?
Scholarship

So they move them off the athletic payroll? That makes sense. I think that’s a nice perk. Also ups the graduation rate.

Kaden Helms played a fair amount in OU's playoff game vs Alabama. He was used quite a bit as a lead blocker.

Big10 is a 4 yr term. I agree though, in todays landscape it should be a year to year agreement.

2026 Husker Football Transfer needs. Plus, whichever positions I missed.
QB: 2- One to compete with Lateef, another to back them up. Might have to bring in a Juco.
RB: 1- Need an experienced RB since EJ is gone.
TE- Could take 1 only if necessary.
O-Line: 2. We need one guard and one tackle. I like Tyle Knaack to take a spot at guard next year.
WR: 1- Need to find a Dane Key replacement or another with some experience
Defense
Dline: 3- Need two defensive tackles plus one more DE- possibly an edge or DE from SDSU.
LB: 2- Find someone with experience to replace Javin and MWT. Add another for depth.
DB: 2- Need a couple safeties. One for sure with playing experience and another to add competition. Corner should be good with both guys returning and good depth there.
ST: 1- Could see us get a ST guy.

Long snapper would be my guess.

We actually have no idea what we need since the portal isn't open yet - might be a lot to fill but until a player actually leaves, we are just guessing in this day and age.

I think the current one (Gallic) is petitioning for an extra year, but yeah if he doesn't get that we need one.

I'm pretty sure that if you bail from the school while on scholarship, you have to return all the knowledge you learned there.

Mr. "We ain't come here to play no school" would probably be safe from those consequences...
