Please no?

We're in a scholarship pinch, and if you give me the options of Gary Bryant Jr, Keith Brown, Treven Ma'ae, Jalil Tucker, I'm putting Bryant Jr no higher than 3rd for best use of that scholarship.

There are probably going to be another 5-8 transfers by the time spring ends so there'll likely be a spot open.

This is correct. There will be more transfers as the depth chart starts to shake out.

Yes please. But don’t like that Arkansas is getting the first visit.

> Please no?

Coach Lanning must be getting bad player evaluation information, or perhaps he's not qualified to make these decisions. He needs to spend more time on Internet fan boards.

I’m curious where you see Tucker and Ma’ae fitting in at on this team? Both are at best 3rd string.

I imagine he sees Tucker with a high ceiling and given another year or two, we would see a potential quality DB. Where we are pretty healthy at WR right now, so making the rich richer isn't as important.

I like Bryant Jr though and I think he would make our team better.

I just don't see them as related. I don't think they are pushing out Brown or Tucker to make room for Bryant. Those guys likely made those decisions on their own. The WR room is good from a quality standpoint, but a little lower than usual from a scholarship standpoint, so he does help balance that out a bit. As it is, we'll likely see 5-8 more guys transfer out, so there would be plenty of room for Bryant without having Tucker and Brown go.

That's exactly it. We've really struggled at cornerback the last few years, and don't have an individual on the current team who's an all-conference type, so I think you do your best to keep high ceiling guys in the fold for competition, even if they don't fully develop for another year or two.

I’ll take Meat evaluation over any of the coaches we have had in the secondary since Neal. If Tucker was 3rd string before the two highly recruited Fr show up, I’m fine with him leaving. Meat recruited to a bad, bad CU team two CBs that are going to be 1 top 10 the other at worst 3rd round.

Ducks will have to keep looking for another TE as Gumms has committed to Arkansas. Not many options still so they may need to wait until April 30th transfer portal deadline to see what's available.

UTSA's leading receiver is now in the portal. Oregon could be a player for him due to Stein but I could see him going somewhere with more guaranteed catches available.
