The portal is jumping, are we participating in sending out any offers or? I'm scratching my head at this approach, there are starting caliber DTs in the portal from JSU, FAM, TXSU. We're not even gone take a flier. Atleast an experienced WR.

I am curious to know what he is looking for, I would have thought we would have offered atleast one of those Wide Receivers at Dudley for 2025. Oh well.

I actually agree with this sentiment but the 2 DTs and 1 OL from Fam are exceptional and D.Davis from JSU is exceptional, beyond that I'm good with no more recycled swac / meac players

And it remains, are there any additional transfers being offered at all? Makes no sense no to offer any whatsoever when there are available upgrades. Doesn't have to be many, 1 OL, 1 DT, 1 WR, 1 LB. I'll take any of these options and be happy

He and many others want Coach Brown to go out and sign at least two Nose Tackles that are true space eaters. This ignores that these players are priority #1 for many Power-4 and FBS programs, whose NIL collectives we can't compete with right now. I assume you knew this already but I digress.

Man, ain't nobody said these kids had to be Power 5, Power 4 or even space eaters. Go back and look at some my posts. Plenty of uncommitted D1's, D2's and jucos still available.

Man, ain't nobody said these kids had to be Power 5, Power 4 or even space eaters. Go back and look at some my posts. Plenty of good D2's and jucos still available. NIL changed things making it harder to recruit those kinds of players that don’t have academic or credit hour issues. Hopefully, it works out for us, or else people will be demanding Coach Brown be let go.

WCA - I'm not making any assumptions on what DECKS meant. And I don't know what exactly is happening with the portal. Just know I want 1 or 2 more DTs/NTs. DECKS - What's your reasoning?

My hope is that we pick up some true receivers on the outside. I wasn't impressed with what I saw in the spring game by anymeans . Making catches against competition that you see everyday in practice does not impress me. I just feel that we do not have a proven receiving group. But we will see.
