Arrival/Departure List 2023-24

We are really tight on scholarships.  Extra qb does not fit, as we will still be seeing some players leave before fall practice. 
We might scholarship strapped, but having your 2nd and 3rd strings as a True Freshman (who backs another True Freshman) and HH is a terrible strategy.  

As a sign of the right program trajectory, Haarberg would never see the inside of the QB room except to say hello to legitimate D1 QBs.

QB is the trickiest of positions for depth, especially with a freshman that we know is going to start.

Yeah, I was hoping Purdy wouldn't like the portal options and come back to be honest - coming in at the same time as the new guys it is a tough sell to anyone with the talent to play. Purdy probably could hold them off and start this year, but in fairness to him the writing is on the wall and it's smart to go elsewhere if he wants to play.

But the only guys who are going to come here at this point are guys who think they can play at this level when no one else does, and are ok with probably needing multiple injuries for that to happen. Those are probably guys like Woche and Longval, without the benefit those two have of already being in this system for a year. Unless (god forbid) there is a spring ball injury that opens the door, we're not interested in a one year rental and this is a bad situation for a multi-year guy who wants to play.

I don't think it is a terrible strategy at all when you just signed the only 5* QB we can hope to get until we start winning.  You roll with him and the other freshman, take your lumps in year 2 of a new coach.  There will be lumps, just accept it and let them get experience for '25.  The goal this year is a bowl, anything beyond that is gravy.

Boy sounds like a familiar plan. How'd that work for A Mart?
