Feels low considering the injury situation OU is dealing with according to @Rufus . Hope we are getting over this flu bug as a team and don't have a let down after the Can't game.

Wonder if Riddle is back on the table now with DePauls coach getting fired.

The reality is we are still adding another 6-10 players in total, with most or all of them being transfer portal players. Still opportunity to bring it a lot more talent. QB - do we (or can we even convince) another experienced QB to come in and fight for the job? We currently technically do have one less scholly in that position group than last year. RB - I think we're OK here. Two intriguing transfers brought in and Kellom another offseason to improve. TE - Fine in my mind, but I think they bring in one more. WR - a lot of intriguing options, but nobody has really done much at the FBS level aside from Adams. Would lean towards being fine to stay put here unless you can bring in a Shocky/George/Adams type from a good P5. OL - I think this unit is at worst case an improvement over last year, but probably still a long way to go. 2 more P5 transfers a la Whigan or Seymore would be clutch. DL - Same level as last year at worst. Would bring in another DT and DE to add more depth at worst, or find another Nunnally/Jones type as best. LB - Good. CB - with Jackson bailing, want another outside corner. I think we're good at Nickel with Lewis and Thomas backing him up. Surprised Thomas didn't play more than he did last year. I thought he looked the part in the spring game. S - our least experienced unit on the team (just above TE). There are some intriguing young options, but nobody on the team has ever started a FBS game, let alone played much at this level. I think Paul Lewis is a shoe in at one of the spots, but the other is up for grabs. I'd bring in another as insurance at worst.

I got us at 77. Curious what our differences are. I only included Jackson in our specialist group (someone last year mentioned he's only ST player on scholly), I excluded Terray Jones. While it would be awesome if he was back, he's played majority of games in 19, 21, 22, 23. Don't see how he'd have anymore eligibility or any good chances on a medical redshirt.

Interesting that with the game on the line, we have Scott in at PG.

I don't know whats going on?

Tavari Johnson is growing up this game. That not being an and 1 is bullshit!

Put Ali back in and take your chances as long as you can. Don't want them to get much closer with time on the clock.

Well, they're students are "unique".

Boom! Nice 3.

Whistle happy refs, at least when it comes to giving Kent fouls.

Yeah, he's not playing perfect but I'm liking his energy and he's doing some good things.

Dawson off.

BTW the respect Kent is giving Freeman is incredible. Not even like a help side double team when he has the ball. They straight up have a guy running to him when he gets it.

Get these bums off the court!

Ali is feeling it!

Freeman schooling Payton early. Love to see it

Horrible.

Duquesne 0-4 to start A10 play. Oof

Good team win IMO. Not necessarily by just beating the opponent, but how we did. Enrique kept us afloat early, Sammy and Ali took it home, and everyone else played good minutes.

Nice minutes from Lyles tonight!

Good energy from Sammy, Freeman looking like Freeman. Ali off so far. Refs letting them play…

I guess is a good thing Linguist is bailing then. Honestly smart career move as he’d likely get fired after another disappointing season. Who else from Buffalo is worth poaching?!

Virginia took Corey Thomas and Washington State took Tyson Durant.

Feels like a weird time for Martin to enter the portal, and I would have liked to keep him, but is what it is. He was a solid starter, but not all MAC type player. Should be able to replace him.
