I’ll go out on a limb and say he was trying to do what Gibson did.

Don't think he fits what Knowles wants in an Edge.

 

[lilesrt]

Flip the roster.

 

[RockyTopWorld]

This sucks! Wake me up when the portal closes so I can focus on guys who want to be on this team.

 

[Grudenator]

I’m glad we have that 10% talent retention fee

It’s bad news brothers and sisters!!!!!

Flip the roster.

Yep.

Let’s start over from the ground up. With an 8-5 record, we could improve or get worse; we’re right in the middle. Would be different if we were 5-8. If that were the case, flipping the roster may be exciting.

No point in getting recruits out of HS, developing them and giving them experience through their struggles only to transfer out when it's time for them to produce. Rather just get the experienced transfers who are hungry to prove themselves for 1-2 years.

Isn’t the portal great? Power to the players, they run college football

 

[MOOOOONEY]

Showed some flashes.

Got embarrassed in the MCB by a freshman tackle.

Wasn’t a high motor guy.

Better Edges in the portal. Go grab a couple

You worried about a back up edge rusher on a defense that was total garbage?

Dude got embarrassed by a backup freshman tackle in the MCB

Use the NIL money and get someone better from the portal.

 

[TNTodd]

Hope we replace him with the Penn State edge but might be tough being number one edge in the portal.

 

[ThreatLevelOrange]

How many times did Vandy run outside of him? I lost count.

Knowles doesn’t want 240 pounders that get blown off the ball.

Tennessee had NO "edge" this season at that position....SO, "Bye".

 

[lukeneyland]

He’s another case of a player that I’d like to keep but he’s not really earned his pay either. He got manhandled at times

 

[BowlBrother85]

Should try to keep him. I agree there is a limit to what should be spent.

 

[allstar34]

I want to come back and change my previously stated 5 year window to 3 years..
CFB is dead within 3 years.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

The new DC is looking to upgrade the entire defense regardless of who the playmakers were last year.

 

[knox73]

I think Caleb’s brother Elijah is now out of eligibility. Good luck to Caleb. I think he will find a solid opportunity somewhere. I also think Knowles and his team can build the roster stronger and no one will miss Caleb much about like no one hardly recalls Elijah now. Caleb is good enough he could also surprise so we shall see.

 

[chrisvannoy]

Maybe this means we go all in on penn state kid

CFB is DEAD to me now. Slept through 80 % of the playoffs & bowl games...or opted to watch network junk.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Honestly, I’m not mad about anyone on defense hitting the portal. We need a reboot from a 90+ ranked overall defense.

The equivalent of a filthy union at this point. Doing nothing but promoting mediocrity and making everyone think they deserve the same pay.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

All the folks crying just leave, we have lost zero game changers. The majority are looking for playing time. We will upgrade. GBO
