...we have a nice group of tough physical runners but need some change of pace there, having a fast RB with some big play ability would be nice.

Re: Transfer Portal. The BYU coaching staff is nailing it

Continuity for the football team. Problematic for basketball?

Florwood

I think continuity is important in both, but there seems to be a little more wiggle room in basketball

Football requires more precision and synchronicity of more people.

bball just got a whole new coaching staff. Let's see how they prioritize

just based on KY's first actions after his hire...

Was just thinking this morning how quiet it's been since the portal closed for BYU. Feeling great about that.

You never now what will happen after spring ball, but for now BYU is in the clear

jvr7

Jan 7, 9:15am

I think this will definitely happen. Players will be given their grades. Some will certainly feel they deserve more

Most likely but for now I'll be grateful for the sigh of relief.

Soupie

Jan 7, 9:48am

For sure. If we were going to lose starters it would have happened last week. It would be unusual to lose a starter

Danny Saili bailed after spring ball. Would love to have kept him around.

Captain Stubing

Yeah but surprisingly he didn't see the field at Arkansas and may not either

They have 7 days after the bowl, right? If we don’t hear today or tomorrow they

5 days I think. (And it takes a bit of time to process them). But most likely the player would have announced if he had

I think we are. Really amazing we didn’t lose anyone for better/more lucrative

You can’t silently go into the portal

The player retention has been a huge recruiting win

With those that entered the portal in December, we're still over the new roster cap for 2025. Expect about 15-20 more

POTD. Your point about keeping the guys we have is under-appreciated here. The coaches need more props for keeping our

Ideally we bring in another DB for our two-deep Nickel

I was thinking DT, but I could go for a DE as well. 🙂

Captain Stubing

Jan 7, 9:49am

Yes, another high-level DT would be nice.

Any word on players with JV years exception - Bamba, Lassiter, Etienne?

Captain Stubing

Jan 7, 9:52am

I think I read that Lassiter said in an interview he would let coaches know his intentions by the end of this week

jvr7

Jan 7, 9:58am

He said on 1280 the end of last week

I'mBatman

Jan 7, 12:42pm

Or he has let them know

I think it also says a lot about the coaches that those players choosing to move

Emmett Fitz-Hume

They didn't use running back Moa near enough. Especially when LJ was hurt.

BlueFever

Jan 7, 2:29pm

I bet they use him a lot next year.

cougaman

Jan 7, 2:30pm

Moa was injured this year as well.

TheLoneCougar

Jan 7, 2:35pm

Did RB Sione I Moa commit to another school? That is a major loss, if true.

Think the 2 Moa's in portal are both LB's. Is that right?

Soupie

Jan 7, 3:01pm

Correct-the 2 Moa brothers in portal are Defensive players.Still have Moa the RB

I was sitting by Etienne’s fam at the bowl game. Sounded like a goodbye w/ them

Was Satuala a threat to leave? Is that why Wakley bounced?

gocougs719

Jan 7, 10:58pm

I hadn't heard anything specifically, I just listed him as a player worth hanging on to

jvr7

Jan 8, 11:56am

I think at the end of the day, Wakely is a 105 casualty.

Captain Stubing

Jan 8, 1:31pm

I was referring to Satuala not Wakely, I should have been more clear.

jvr7

Jan 8, 1:35pm

ya, my bad. my post was meant to be under cocougs719s thread. Sorry.
