to win in the Big 12 with two FR starters and three new starters overall. I hope those new guys are all so dang good that this is how it works out, but that is very, very optimistic say the lords of the stats that do this for a living.
He sings Fouss' praises as a top level Big12 player, but then says a less experienced transfer will start over him? Unlikely.
Knell has been starting. If Baker is healthy, he's starter quality. Saunders is certainly worthy. Despite Mag's struggles offensively, he has starting experience for a P5 team. I don't think it's cut and dry that our two big FR will beat all those guys out.
Agreed we should be aiming mainly at a big for the last schollie. A young developmental guy is ideal, but an experienced guy that is ok being 3rd string would be acceptable.
