Of that list, I’d love Biles and Perich. Two studs.

The safety from

Minnesota is a stud.

I suspect this will pickup immensely after the Natty.

REALLY need good DT and DT depth, same with DE, really the defense…

HUGE need for QB…

5

DB Thornton from Boston College to UM. From Broward originally played with Toney and Lucas at AH.

Will be a Nickle or Safety at UM. Big hitter.

WR Jacobs from South Carolina to UM. Speed guy. About 6’0-6’1. Really started to come into his own this year.

Biles goes to Texas.

Skeeter, perhaps a longer post for another day but how does our depth look like right now on O and D, minus the seniors/portal departures?

Biggest need(s) in your opinion?

9

WR Cam Vaughn from WVU to UM. Taller than Jacobs…Both players would probably be our fastest WR on the team or at least right Spafford. Size/speed combo here.

10

Yeah, but who will throw it to them?

there has to be some surprise out there. How do you sell a wr to come to your program that doesn’t have a qb?

12

Perhaps…Leavitt? Maybe but he doesn’t seem like a locker room guy…maybe he would be here?

13

Leavitt soap opera continues

Him and Simpson (who has declared for the draft much like Ward and Beck did) are the two main names still being mentioned

Any word on the interest from the kicker Jack Olsen? Kicker pickings seem slim in the portal. But most of these guys fly under the radar, not too many five star kickers. At most I see three stars otherwise they are just names. I see…

Jake Weinberg, FSU

Brunno Reus, FSU

Aeron Burrell, LSU

Abram Murray back in the portal guess it didn’t work out at Cal either.

15

Leavitt apparently to LSU. Not sure if its officially announced yet

Yeah, just saw from Shefty that Leavitt is going to LSU…he and Kiffin are a good fit

Who are we going to get. Starting to panic.

It might have to be an existing qb on the roster.

19

That does not help me.

Haha…Unfortunately there were probably only 3-4 that were worth making big offers to as starters and we did.

Not a lock to get one.
