Don't forget about pregame pics. Tennessee looked like Pillsbury dough boys. Might need to look into strength and conditioning.

We just should just tear the program down and start over. Not sure how even won enough games to make a bowl..

Is this an indication that Kitselman will be back?

I take that moreso as MK is planning on returning and ED’s development is going well?

Crap. Hope that means MK is coming back or that Davis is ready for a substantial role.

With the juco ruling. It was either gonna be Staes or Davis. Still a really talented room. MK, Davis, Brame, Van Dorselaer

What did the Juco ruling have anything to do with it?

Saying bc I believe MK can come back

Because the rooms becomes crowded and staes wants to play.
Miles gets to come back, Davis you plan on taking another step. Then bring in 2 TEs. He just wants to play imo

I didn’t realize he went Juco.

Yep. Those 2 freshman are both really talented too. We are finally beating out UGA/Oregon/OSU for recruits instead of Soukerlina and Kentucky. Top 300 recruits. When this 24 and 25 class mature we will be the best teams yet under CJH. Our bluechip recruits on roster % has steadily increased but taken sizable jumps in the 24 and 25 classes.

Kitselman was a beast this year. He will get drafted in the middle rounds next year IMO. Love that dude. Great job evaluating by the staff and grabbing him from Bama.

 

[C-town Vol]

Interestingly, Kitselman looked more athletic than Staes this year. I thought Holden was going to be very athletic.

Should i Staes or should I go?

 

[PowerT.]

I know some rival fanbases started some chatter on Arion Carter but I don’t expect anything portal related from him and I’m told he is ready to get back in the lab and focus on 2025. I do expect him to have some shoulder clean up but he will be the leader of the D this fall.

Kitselman coming back would be amazing. One of the most valuable players on the offense.

Good God! Why do they transfer here if they don’t plan on seeing it through? Dangling of cash shuts down integrity. Just answered my own question

Staes is a solid player, but he's not as good as the coaches thought he'd be. Davis will be an upgrade if he can stay healthy and they can bring those talented Freshmen along. I think Staes knows that MK and Davis would play over him next season, so he's making the right decision for himself. It'll also free up some NIL funds.

He went through senior day. Thought he was done
