2025 Projected Roster

[rocytop2624]

for those that may not have heard, Bishop was put on scholarship on the 11th. Which I had not heard when I posted above on the 15th

How bad did he hurt his ankle his freshman year and was the ankle injury last year the same one?

I'm not sure on either. He seemed fine last season prior to injury..

Larry,

Reddick, Masai

25-26

4th

Reddick is no longer listed on the roster at ut.sports.com
I believe he may have left the team prior to spring semester.

Thanks Larry, I did not find a statement on Reddick being off the team either. A poster on the recruiting forum had noticed he was no longer on the roster. I believe it changed when they published the roster going into spring training.

Added DT Josh Schell who signed today. Transfer from Grand Valley St

 

[NighthawkVol]

By my count, after removing Reddick and adding Schell, I have 77 on scholarship. Unless a kicker has been given a scholarship. Is that what you have, Larry?

First time visiting this thread. Thanks for keeping track @LWSVOL .

One thing that really stands out to me is the HUGE amount of Sophmores and Juniors that had very significant playing time last year.

Larry, is Masai Reddick gone? I never saw him enter the portal. Haven't heard about him medically retiring. So is he still on the team or not?

NVM. See it's already been discussed. Someone with a VQ account should ask AP about Reddick. Odd that he's disappeared like a fart in the wind.

If we're at 78, it's odd that we haven't been more active in the portal.

AP has confirmed

Most everyone they look at wants money. Lots of money but they feel the one's they have reviewed can't help them and are not worth the money,, They feel Hood can come in and compete so they took him. They will bring someone on if they believe they can help. But not over pay them.

Glad to see this post! Was getting worried. Hadn't seen you in the baseball forum recently, and you weren't feeling well the last time. Yeti-Strong!

I think Bishop and Gilbert are on scholarship. https://utsports.com/sports/football/roster/desean-bishop/21979. Can't find the link for Gilbert but i know i saw it. Not sure about any other walk-ons.

 

[benholt06]

I have us at 78 scholarships not including the specialists.

 

[orangebloodgmc]

Where's that 2-deep at, that was to be released today??? Yeah, yeah, I know there will be some "or's" on it; don't care.

Thanks. That is somewhat helpful ... even though it lists McCoy and Hobbs on there.

Great start!
