It's funny when it's not happening to you (and it happens to CU).



Showing pressure on fourth down in overtime. They bring pressure. Lamson throws...Endzone! Caught! TOUCHDOWN!!! Taco Dowler!

And a kick away from a championship.

Here we go. Miles Sansted. Snap, hold, kick, Up, GOOOOD!! FOR A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!

So how many griz 2-deep are left on the team at this point? Everyone is leaving.
Ah Yat

Gillman

Davis
Dever
Finch

Freitas

Their entire 2nd string DL

Oven
Wing

Harper
Cutler

I think that’s right.

5 starters and 8 backups. I think Gillman is going to be back. Harper has said he will be, though I suppose he could pull a Polidore if the right team gets in his ear. Wing is the real question remaining.
Harper is leaving

Bleak may be the wrong work but all these departures have to be hurting.them. Bobby better be striking gold on the big majority of his additions.

Biggest impact players they lost to portal were:

Harper, Loud, Otlewski, Wilkinson, Fonoti, Ramos (kinda)

The guys coming back who have played a ton:

Oven, Boyd, Beaner, Cutler, Bailey, Mason, Schwartz, Seumalo, Gentry

I think the year prior was a total makeover. This is more plug and play

Plug and play if those players take another step. It happened with Cat LB and DB this year so it can happen. But not a guarantee they all improve to starter level.

The UM transfer from Louisville who was predicted to be Wortham 2.0 has de-committed and is going to Delaware State, where Desean Jackson is coaching.

I saw a video yesterday saying there are over 10,000 kids in the portal with just a few hours before it closes. They said most will not play football again. Oh, to be an agent, all you need to do is create an X profile and claim to be a college football agent.

How is the portal helping these kids.

The number that needs to be shared is how many prior to the portal had to drop down because they list their spot and how many ended up out of football that still had eligibility. There has always been attrition but with portal those numbers are tracked better. Covid years then 6 and 7 year injury, and now JC years not counting have all taken roster spots.

Example #1:

Where do you think North American, Lincoln and Sac State get all their players? Those are perfect landing spots for the leftovers.

Lincoln is not an option next year. They aren't playing.
