I understand the sentiment of your post, but there is also something to say about having 4 and 5 yr Jr/Sr's on your team. I think a big part of the problem with our season was that we didn't have upperclassmen to lead and show the young talent what it takes to win games. We just can't perpetually have a "young talented" team.
Probably not a great example here, but when Tyree Wilson left after his freshman year, we all probably said it didn't matter because he didn't contribute. He's now a Sr LB that will likely be drafted. Would we have benefited from having him on our defense this year? My thoughts are yes…
I wish the best to everyone that leaves, but we also need to develop a culture of developing players and keeping them in the system.

The biggest position of need is linebacker. We lose White and Russell. Plus Harris to the portal. Cooper is the only one coming back with experience.
Fisher needs to get 3 linebackers in the portal and hope 1 or 2 are solid contributors

I read somewhere it's primarily tied to their social media. Followers, tweets, etc. In other words what would they be worth on the open market (separate from college football) for their NIL.txaggieacct85 said:I'm just wondering how they come up with that NIL valueBill Superman said:Looks like LJ Johnson wasn't worth 55k for us…firethewagonup said:txaggieacct85 said:

I don't want to say what this looks like with a $$ value next to their names…BUUUUUT

Did a follow up, I made a mistake…the kid is not a Tr Fr. He was a Jr this year and had almost 100 tackles, most on the team. Again, rock solid get if it works out.

Where are you getting that assumption? Everything I've seen is 4 to 8 range.SL****dad said:
"but we also need to develop a culture of developing players and keeping them in the system."
This is critical for many reasons. Assuming we lose 8 to 12 players from last years class, how does that impact the roster?
- We had -30 in last years class and losing "only" 1/3 is never a good thing. We can't afford to develop players who transfer to other teams, especially to teams which we compete against in the SECw. That takes PT away from other kids who probably want to be here for the right reasons.
- Had we kept the majority of last years class, we'd have a much older and more experienced roster in 24. If anyone doubts the importance of an older/experienced roster, take a look at TCU & Michigan's rosters AND their records. If you want consistency (like winning), age & experience are critical factors when building a roster.
- If we lose 1/3 of last years class, we have to utilize the transfer portal to re-balance our roster. Does Jimbo understand that? Better yet, does Jimbo know how to leverage the transfer portal? His theory of L's creating opportunity for kids wanting PT is weak. That says a lot about Jimbo because the L's are on him. How does he sell that BS?
- The other factor in "successful" roster management is KEEPING your draft eligible players. Which of those players will Jimbo convince to stay for next years championship run?

Out of that entire group the only one I don't think I'd like to see back is Williams. None of the others have been in any trouble since suspended but the fact that he was arrested with a few pounds of weed while suspended leads me to believe he's not one that is going to correct his course.Greencougars said:
Marshall is not going into the portal. He's already stated that. Williams if he's able to stay in school. Will not go in the portal either. I can't speak for the other 2 players
Make your next move your best move !!!
