I’d say Estrada is going to have to be overslot to sign but he’s gone. As mentioned earlier, it’s very rare to be taken in the top 10 rounds and not sign. The budget $ is too important to take someone you don’t think will sign

Arvy the early favorite for the Friday night guy?

We'll have to see if he further develops into a starter. He had the one fantastic game where he was facing his former coach so I'm sure that he was a little amped up for that one, but he was fairly inconsistent outside of that game IMO.

The K rate was really good, so I'm hoping that he'll take another leap after another off-season with Coach Q and A.
 
That's massive. Arvidson could make a huge jump and make himself some money. Arvy, Mack, Kuhns, Blanco, Appenzeller, Seibert, Krenzel, Brown, Frederick, Rudy, Newman, Edmondson (?), Hindy, 5 ish freshman (?), spot for another transfer if needed. That's a talented staff.

On paper could be one of the best we have had going into the season under Vitello. Young guys and vets to contribute right away. 2023 may be the only one better and Burns & Dollander took a step back that year.

This has to be the best roster Tony has had on paper yet. The way he cleaned up in the portal this offseason was the envy of the country. He constantly went up the biggest schools for big time transfers and landed most of the ones he went after. It's been remarkable to witness.
