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.

I believe he will technically be a redshirt junior, so 2 years. Maybe 3 as it looks like he missed all of last season with injury, so may be able to get medical redshirt if desired.

And another!

Funny enough I think many on this board pointed out the turf looked too “black” when it was installed. How does a company specializing in turf installation make such a mistake?

looks like we beat out at least BG and Liberty, and maybe Temple since he entered the portal. Nice job supplementing both lines the past few days.

Apparently was a 2 year starter at NMSU, but stats don't really suggest that (who knows if they're accurate). Regardless, seems like a solid get based on experience, he'll have 2 years with us, and Kent, UConn, Ga Southern, and ECU offered him since entering the portal.

Per 247, Coach J Rod recruited him at FIU, so a relationship is there.

Oddly enough, I have us right at 85, assuming starting punter, PK, and LS will be on scholly. Various possibilities like signees from 2023 not coming, players retiring and not entering transfer portal, maybe someone like Hester was only put on scholly last year but not for this year? Additionally, Brian Kilbane is a player who walked on last year that is probably in line for a scholly... As always, if somebody knows something different than I'm assuming, please speak up.

Someone else leaving? Offer out to a class of 23 prospect.

Damn this is exciting.
