It feels like we went hard for guys with upside and some eligibility beyond this year rather than going after 4th or 5th year guys. I am 100% cool with that.
I think that's the way to do it going forward. The new transfer rules make you sit out the 2nd time you transfer. So, it's unlikely these guys would be poached for NIL deals from some other school.

We also finally have some roster stability. I don't think the staff likes replacing 8-9 guys every year. As it stand now, we'll be losing 3 seniors (Jones, Ward and King) and replacing them with 3 freshman. Inevitably we'll probably have 2-3 guys transfer out leaving us with 2-3 openings for transfers next year which is about perfect.

Yeah replacing nearly all of roster every year isn't a long term plan for success. Would like some guys we can really get to know.
