There are 14 OL on the roster (scholarship and walk-ons). Add the 2 incoming freshmen and that gives us 16. Do I think they will add; yes I do. I don't think they are particularly close with a transfer at the moment, but there is still plenty of time to get new players here

I am going to try and make the open scrimmage on Saturday evening. It looks like the staff is trying or has secured a few key potential transfers to be here for this practice. Former Alabama DE Keelan Cox will be here for his visit and I think others will be on campus too

That would be great, ideally in time to enroll at ACU over the summer.

Apparently there are a lot of guys still in the portal and more going in everyday. According to people "in the know" the portal situation is really going to hurt high school seniors who are rated as 3 star and under. Too many schools shopping the portal and not willing yet to offer them yet. Anyone heard anything about this?

I don’t like this. Patterson’s failed to keep 2 very good defensive players, who were team Captains as well. Both were here and met with him. Not a good look IMO.

Maybe KP felt like he wasn't a good fit for what he wants and told Green he would be looking to find other guys for his spot. We didn't win with the guys we had so I'm going to give KP the benefit of the doubt for a couple of years. He has to make this his team.

I'm just saying we lost Q and Green, two of our best defensive players last year. Q got an offer to Rice and Green was one of our top tacklers. Guess Patterson's "why" and sales job didn't work for them. Wish them both the best.

You hate to Lose team leaders no matter what side of ball they are on…With that being said, it's a different coaching staff and not everyone off the 2021 roster will be a fit. I‘ve had multiple players say the coaches are quick to let everyone know..”if you don’t want to be here go…there are others that want to be on the team”. Thus far l like KP’s message and demeanor with the team. I don’t remember the past regime chasing P5 players. I am hopeful KP & staff can keep the players they want to keep and add other quality players.
