I currently count 65 players on the roster--counting our 2 commits and freshman recruits--not counting walk-ons. I hope I'm missing some players but if not, I'm getting very anxious. Some players in the portal who want playing time ought to seriously give us a look.

That is accurate Bogey. By my count, we have 20 open scholarships. The staff has a LOT to do between now and when camp starts. They will get there, but I am anxious as well

They will get there, but I am anxious as well When you say we have 20 open scholarships….are you thinking full or partial? I believe the overall total scholarship limits for FCS Division I football programs will remain the same. Those limits are 63 football full scholarship equivalencies and they can be disbursed among 85 football scholarship players. Can someone please confirm…I have the correct understanding?

RB Jarquae Walton has entered the portal Hate to see him go, looked really good when he got some touches last year. Our RB room is pretty crowded with 3 guys that could start at other places up top. Be interesting to see where he ends up, I did see where he got an offer from UCO where Dorrel is. I've seen some others enter portal via twitter lately, Scalera, Edwards, Ruiz, Moore, Diaz, Ibrahimi, not sure if any are scholarship or not. Only two I've seen that landed somewhere are Kadren Johnson and Luke Dillingham. This portal stuff is interesting for sure!

And Dillingham went to D2 Angelo State which kind of surprised me. Was he just on partial scholarship with us?

Oldtime, I think of the group you mention above only Kadren Johnson and Luke Dillingham were scholarship athletes. BucFan, I was disappointed to see Luke D go to a D-2 school (albeit a D-2 school that kicked our butts 2 years ago). I wonder if he might have been a partial guy as well. I imagine that it has been mentioned on here where Kadren J went to school, but I am too easy to go find it -- where did he land after leaving ACU?

Dillingham was full scholarship.

I see that Greg Green has committed to Western Carolina. The Blue Ridge Mtns is not a bad place to land.

A couple of quick updates
QB Hayden Anderson has left the team and is now at Baylor. He is no longer playing football
OL Truett Knox has indeed medically retired

Thanks for this update--sorry that Knox and Anderson are no longer playing football but looks like we are still loaded at their positions. Also, really like the length we've brought in at receiver. TE Castles at 6'7" added to Caldwell, Cooper and Miles will be a help. Scruggs (6'2"), Golightly (6'4"), and Taylor (6'5") give us some bigger bodies to throw to. Catalon (5'9") brings athleticism and experience.

Those young guys don’t get a chance.
