You have an opportunity to go into the portal and do the funniest thing

That offense should be fun

I ain't got no offense left.

I assume you mean sign Isaac Smith? He was a 4 star which is out of my range. Dumpster 2.5 star program I am.

Pardon me.

Not a terrible recruiting haul for your first offseason

[ShireNiner]

Texas
HC Steve Sarkisian left for Michigan
Hired HC Lane Kiffin (Ole Miss HC)

I had the same in mine.

Not terrible recruiting for the school you are, slowly building. Arch to Nebraska is a funny one to watch

[redsox907]

is Raiola still at Nebraska too?!

haul looks solid. Your assessment in the CB does not inspire confidence however

[The JZA]

Denzel Boston (Washington -> Oregon)

Solid offseason like everyone else said

[Soapy]

Isaac Brown (Louisville -> Miami)

every chise lmao

[Captain Canada]

Arch going to Nebraska is comical.

Your off-season was good, I genuinely didn't think you would cook in the transfer portal like you did, but you did good work.
