    They have more money than anybody, if they want to overpay then you can't chase after it

    Unfortunately, many schools have more than us. Or at least are willing to spend more. We certainly aren't going to be able to "outtalent" a lot of those schools. Need smart players and great coaching for us to win any champs in this day and age. Unfortunately, we are kinda lacking in that regard right now though.

    The guy is going into his 4th year of college football, a redshirt jr, with a total of 14 tackles in 29 games played. In 2024 he averaged 9 snaps a game.

    be nice to have another experienced body on the DL and especially at NT. But I wouldn’t think it should be super hard to find a dude with similar or more upside with similar or more experience and productivity.

    not a big Miss in my opinion
