Unless you know something that hasn't been posted on here, he wasn't an early enrollee as is the case with most freshman, and theres been nothing to indicate he won't be joining the team in the summer.

Damn...

This is the one you liked right?

I might be missing someone, but I'm only counting 6 JUCOS out of 35+ new players.

Can't imagine him de-committing would mean anything but one of two things: He knows of a better offer or offers incoming, or we have a better prospect we know that is committing.

I’m thinking on scholly.

Another OL incoming?

Thomas gone already?? Damn.

Unfortunately Ka'Marri Landers also no longer appears on the roster. He's another guy I couldn't locate on the sideline or field during spring game. Right now, I have us at 90 scholarship players, with bringing in 23 JUCO/transfer portal players. I decided not to count Ridge Howard as he didn't post the same committed graphic as the other clearly scholarship players and I don't believe he was actually on scholarship at NIU either as he wasn't included in their signing day bios.

Darnell was pretty intriguing to me out of HS. Too bad. I didn't notice him at the spring game either.

Incredible offer list coming out of high school. Didn't do much at during time at IL, but still has 2 years of eligibility. I like me some big, athletic linebackers.

@catdaddypare there any other Lingard-like caliber portal signees for the other schools we should be aware of?

I have no inside details. assumed he entered the portal. Didn’t know he retired. Too bad though, I thought he was a solid player.

8-4 it is then. I'd happily take that lol

Another position of need (with Brank transferring and Clark injury) addressed!

This offense is going to be insane as long as Joe Mo is here. Stockpiling talent and depth at every position.

Yeah I saw the football account officially announced some signings today, so unsure if he was referencing that or if there are some new commits. I feel like the latter just based on following him, but have been wrong before.

might be some more coming…

Aziz to Cincinnati.

Never mind I see it!

I'm not going to try to guess attendance, but with all 4 teams being decent programs, being within reasonable driving distance, having solid fan bases, and them generally being good match ups - I don't think 8-10k attendance would be out of the question as it currently stands. Of course OSU fans aren't the biggest fans of Holtmann right now and they'd likely be the largest group, so that might hurt some.

Where are all the scholarships coming from lol

I can't really imagine us adding anyone else at this point for 2023. Good to see the staff agrees with the board though that OL, DB, and DL were the holes. The holes on paper are filled, but lets hope most of these guys pan out into at least solid G5-caliber players.
