I know it's a few weeks early but I figured I would go ahead and get this started and get some names going.

Completely forgot about that. Just added. I think he'll end up at Oregon though

Just hope we go after guys with at least 2 years eligibility. We need to be building for 2026.

Most of the guys are multi year guys I believe. Then again, with all the extra eligibility craziness these days, I don't know how many years anyone has anymore

We got enough G5 talent already so why not concentrate on guys who play in the PS/

Can we just sign all of the defensive players?

I would be shocked if he is not. The family is not happy with Venables.

Well you have to get them to agree to come first off. Secondly, I was just adding guys who are really showing out at the G5 level. It will be hard to get a gauge on the P5 guys who play who enter until the season ends.
As I said, I will add guys as they enter and add more as people give me the names.

We're absolutely looking for a RB

Insert vomit emoji...
Those are just the lower level guys and G5 guys that are either in the portal or I expect them to be. I don't know yet of P5 guys that will go in the portal. P5 guys are hard to project because if they play it's usually a shock if they enter the portal, unless they are heavily rumored.
Also just to point this out:
Tre Harris- La Tech
Caden Prieskorn-Memphis
Cam Ward- Incarnate Ward and Wazzu
Zeon Chriss- ULL
Taylen Green-Boise St
Diego Pavia-NM State
Davon Booth-Utah St
Matthew Golden-Houston
Eli Stowers-NM State
You can find good players anywhere that can play at this level.....you just have to make damn sure they CAN play at this level. I mean hell, Bingley-Jones and Kpapka are both P5 guys who transferred and they couldn't start most places at the P5 level other than here.

Yep. I understand we were in a bind with the coaching change, but it goes to show you that the portal meltdowns are ridiculous.
They said on the broadcast the other night that in GAME 10 of the season, Rashad Amos got his EIGHTH carry of the season, and Ole Miss has had the injury bug in the backfield. People on our boards were MELTING that he didn't sign with us.

I still cannot figure out him leaving to go to Ole Miss. Like I kind of got going to Colorado because they were still missing a feature back, but to decommit from there to go to OM was crazy. I mean AT THE TIME Ole Miss had two backs in front of him in Parrish and Bentley. Jones then emerged and pushed him further down the depth chart. I think we definitely got the better back in Booth though.

Well it's also really hard to evaluate P5 players who really don't play. That's why it's so imperative to get up to the level of OM and have an entire dept scouting players so when they enter the portal, we already have scouted.

I'll just say this once: Big time players don't want to play for piss ant programs & first time coaches who win 2 17ing games. So get ready for Juco, Juco, Juco, and more G5 scabs. We already offering our 4th options in HS recruiting. Howdy Doodie needs to tell BBQ boy to make Lebby make changes in that staff or we can find another AD who isnt a dumb ass giving out big contracts to nobodies. Either we bring in real coaches on this staff or we hire a new staff and AD next year.
But Howdy's old lady has his nuts in a box on the mantle, so I expect a new bunch of people in another 2 years at this point.
