Assuming Cade, Gartman (maybe not), and Nixon go pro. Hunt and Stinnett graduate. That leaves (1) Dohm, (2) Holcombe, (3) Cijntje, and (4) Loftin for SEC work. There are not enough SWAC games for the rest of the cats. I do expect 1 or 2 of the four 2022-Freshmen to make a leap, but that's a crap shoot these days. Butch's kids used to make leaps, we have not seen many leapers with Fox players. We have generally seen players regress horribly to double digit ERAs.
It doesn't settle those that are in scholarship. The 11.7 guys are set prior to the fall. The rest are battling for the non aid spots.
