We now have a history of prominent players entering the portal; there are no guarantees; he (Brown) has to hold onto cornerstones for a rebuild; Kenji's fumbles are not from bad hands but from gang tackles and his attempts to gain additional yards; that's an easy correction; and the O-line Coach trains his line to support the backs forward, progressing either forward or to the ground. Kenji is a cornerstone. I intuitively see this endorsement as a tagging of Kenji; otherwise, you promote the program with a picture of our only first-team CAA player, Taymon Cooke. Thank you BA for beating me to commenting on Kenji . You are correct. Also the one that are entering the transfer portal have already made up their minds and to be truthful we're not really losing anyone so far that I would deem a important loss in my opinion. The ones that have announced their transfer intentions only opens up opportunities for others to step up so it's no big deal. We actually don't know who's entering the portal yet since it hasn't opened. We only know who graduated and moved on.

So Eli and a few others have not made there intentions known then or did I read it wrongly 🤔

You read it correctly, but they graduated. So they're grad transfers with immediate eligibility to play elsewhere. That's different from the transfer portal.
They can make their intentions known, but can't actually be contacted yet. There still may be others lurking that have interest in transferring that we don't know about yet and won't know about until the portal opens.
The official transfer portal opens December 4. So we could either see a mass exodus, see how many people are committed to Coach Brown and company, or something in the middle at that time.

I dont think Eli graduated yet; he's only been here 2 years.

Things can change but 99.5% of the time ,the one's that make their Intentions known or public have already made up their minds to act on them . But either way . It's better for Brown to rebuild/retool with the type of talent he wants and that includes staff . So it is know question or reason this time around if he succeeds or fails as a head coach.
