So if you are in Niko's shoes and Garcia is able to come back, wants to come back, and we can afford him.....you say thanks but no thanks? Skilled big guys are hard to land in the portal, Garcia would fill a need on the roster, and instantly make the team better. I mean if you can get a...

I don't think the goal of getting players with multiple years left has changed or become any less of a priority. Garcia is his own separate case in my opinion. If he is granted another year of eligibility and wants to come back you take him in a heartbeat because he instantly makes the team...

difficult.....but not impossible.....we all remember 2017 and the QB situation we had that season.....

Yep. Assume Niko has a really good sense on where things stand with Garcia and the likelihood that he would or would not come back if the option becomes available to him. That said, there are still plenty of spots available on the roster so they can hold out hope on Garcia while still...

QB is a scary room in terms of experience.....that said.....in this current era where QBs move all over the place most teams are going to struggle to have much of any quality depth in their QB room. The fact that the coaches are not scrambling to find a transfer QB who is good enough to start...

Hold up.....Shooter had bad information?.....You must be talking about a different Shooter....Because there is no way Charlie Walters would ever be wrong about anything he publishes.....accuracy and valid information is the hallmark of his......

Given their dynamic last year I would hope Max would have been really open to working with Drake. Drake wasn't a threat to take his job but was also very likely the QB of the future so assuming Max wanted to help the U out it would make sense for him to do whatever he could to help Drake...

Good point. The 105 limit is going to hurt a lot of walk ons and those would definitely be the type of players who might just stop playing football but stay at the U to keep going to school.

Need the O-Line to be solid in front of him. Scary having a QB with very little experience but he had a great chance to learn under Brosmer last year so hopefully that that translates to success for him this year.

The roster churn definitely makes it tougher to stay interested when the team is struggling because as you mentioned you can't really form any sort of attachment to the players on the team the way you could when guys were around for multiple years. Baring a Garcia return - there are no rotation...

What I love is that Deion has been saying nobody would even be talking about this if Shadeur's last name wasn't Sanders....and the funny part is that he is right but not for the reason he thinks he is. The only reason that Shadeur's number is being retired is because his daddy is the head...

I want to say it was Sane24 or someone like that who had a thread that often ran parallel to this one with scholarship numbers and what not. But think he gave it up with the uncertainty over eligibility and roster size because that has gotten more confusing. As best I can tell we are still...

The hope would be that we have a more well defined offensive system that doesn't allow that to happen nearly as much. But the one thing you can count on is that those that are determined to find something to complain about will be able to do it. If it isn't over dribbling they will pick...

Yeah, makes sense that things kind of ebb and flow some. You get a flurry of activity and then teams kind of reset and see where things are at in terms of their rosters and what is left in the portal. Can't even imagine trying to navigate the portal and all the craziness around it.....exciting...

Fair point but it is a shame that we have now hit a point where we basically have to view college athletes in the same way we view pro athletes. That said, the unrestricted free agency for every player every year has to go away here at some point. If we are going to treat them like pro...

Sure the coaches are still working hard to fill out the remainder of the roster but maybe taking more time now that they have at least a solid framework in place. Want to be sure that the remaining guys they bring in will fit well with what is already in place. Still a ton of players in the...

I would assume that as well, the numbers always seem to work out in the end. Will be interesting to see how the final roster shakes out over the next few months leading up to the start of the season. Seems like there is still some uncertainty about when they have to get to the new roster...

That's awesome....and honestly how it should be actually displayed. I wonder how things work over there now that the both Sanders kids and Hunter are gone. Battle Royale to determine who Deion's new favorites are?

Deion tried to get to the NFL but it didn't work out this cycle. Would anticipate this probably being an annual thing. As for Shadeur - my prediction is that he is going to be an NFL bust and I am really really glad we are not in the market for an early round QB this year. Let him be someone...

Added Nestor - Still feel like we are going to need another handful to transfer out to get to 105 for the fall. Tough to get an exact read but with other incoming freshman not on roster yet it seems like we are somewhere around 110 total on the roster right now.
