    There are very few who last played in a bowl game, Wingo comes to mind. I assume these players want to play more than we know.

    2020. And we were to really debate that, you could make a good case it really was 2019 because how many opted out in 2020?

    Umm, we went to the Gasparilla Bowl in 2021 and the Las Vegas bowl in 2022.
    Granted we hardly showed up for either, but we were technically in these bowls.

    All of them should be playing. None of them are 1st or 2nd round picks. Play the bowl and senior bowl if invited. A couple might not even get combine invites and will do the on campus combine.

    Florida starting junior EDGE Jack Pyburn officially entered the transfer portal on Thursday and has already been contacted by more than 30 schools.
    However, Pyburn isn’t ruling out the possibility of staying at UF.
