Incoming Portal for '25

[bearcatbret]

These smaller conferences get hit hard every year now with free agency running amuck.

[Lobot]

Caleb Goodie. A WR from Colorado St will visit

[Lobot]

Offer to Alex Harkey OL Texas ST

[Bearcat93]

No P4 portal offers at all?

[Lobot]

There have been a few.

So far, The staff looks like they are focusing on guys from their home recruiting ground in the Carolinas and GA area. There are a few Northern Ohio types thrown in. I suspect they have prior relationships with these guys and have already evaluated them previously.

You may see more P4 offers going forward but I could be wrong in that.

[Lobot]

Offers to:

CB Raion Strader from Miami OH.
PJ WIlkins OL from Charlotte
Santana Banner CB from NIU
Steven Curtis DE from Illinois St.
Javonnie Gibson WR from Ark-Pine Bluff

[Lobot]

Harvey Broussard a WR from Louisiana (the school) has an offer

[Lobot]

Kaiden Arnold OL from Jacksonville St. has an offer

[Lobot]

Two more:

Julian Neal CB from Fresno St.

Travis Burke OL FIU

[Lobot]

No offer but keep an eye on Cyrus Allen WR from Texas A&M.

Also Bearcat Bunch noted that Will Whitson and Cam Calhoun are in the portal. Calhoun was committed to UC at one point a couple of years ago under FIckell. Both are from Winton Woods HS

Offer to Alex Mitchell LB from Chattanooga

Winton Woods. Got it...

Unless some P4 transfers come in, I worry we see more of the same, lower level athletes that can't separate from higher level athletes and CB's that can't cover higher end WR's. I know it's early and yes, we did land Royer and Pryor, but who knows if those two even stay? Not a lot to be excited about so far.

^^^^ If the offers were to players at P4 schools that weren't playing, I would certainly feel better than I do currently. Right now, I share your outlook - we are headed for another season with maximum wins of 4-5 games. Unacceptable.
