the last 2 years.

Purcell is a beast! Gonna be a difference maker for our dline by the time he’s done here. Was just a sophomore this year.

Not expecting a Jack Kelly type of impact (I didn’t expect that from Kelly either), but he’ll help to fill the hole left by Batty and the others. Also brings experience to our youngsters on the line. I’d pencil him in the 2 deep right now (a most likely starter), but I still think we have some talented freshman that haven’t had the chance to showcase their skills yet.


Now lets land Akana from Texas and I’ll be feeling a lot better about the dline next year. Akana hasn’t lived up to his hype yet and was buried in the depth chart at Texas, but he’s got legitimate star potential written all over him.

Would need to gain 20 pounds before he can really make an impact tho. Still, he’s at the top of my wish list as far as “realistic” transfer portal options go.
