Who Is Coming Back?

By my count, Christian Gaylord is the only one who hasn't announced yet.  Unless I missed it.  I don't think he'll come back which obviously illustrated the issues on the offensive side of the ball.

I'm not sure if you're serious or not here.

The expectations for the defense is going to be out of control. As much as there is uncertainty about Chinander, statistically his defenses have improve each year, so getting just about everyone back, plus some decent recruits and transfers from last year, this defense should be top 25 easily.

Maybe the offense will do their part a little better to put some pressure on opposing offenses, then maybe the D would be even better. 

 
Well it looks like my wishes have come true. I read today that Stille is coming back, along with Honus, Williams, and Domann.  Mills won’t be back but Dismuke is coming back. 
Not bad!!

He's been here since Pelini, and how many of us even know his name? I notice he doesn't have Cavanaugh on his thank-you list though - apparently needed to have his love of the game rekindled after that guy. ;)

Well the opposite for the young guys is, no playing time, having to put forth effort to get playing time usually these days results in entering the transfer portal.

yeah but they all got a “free” year as well. They still have 3-4 yrs left in the program depending on status. If NPG can be a monster on special teams and get some decent reps this year (using him as an example) he’ll still just be a soph in 2022 if my thinking is correct. 
 

so, we have 9 of 11 starters back for a magical 6th yr let’s call it. All the younger guys are still young thru next year and moving into 2022 will STILL have 3 yrs to play. Can’t lose unless the amazing portal sucks them in. 
 

the converse would be if 7-8 guys hung it up after this BS covid year and we have to start guys who are actually true soph/redshirt players. Instead,  we have a returning nucleus that can play as 5-6th yr dudes and a full stable of younger guys that are competing every day. 
 

and don’t forget who our offense is practicing against. It’s not 1 v 1 everyday but if the offense has  to practice  against the 2’s, which consist of players who may have been starting...well it’s a win win. 
 

guys coming back on the D side of the ball is so good for the whole team. Especially since the younger guys didn’t lose a year.
