We got a starter from UC in the portal?

4 Likes

He missed the 2024 season with an injury. He was a starter at Eastern Michigan in 2023 and had 6.5 sacks. Finished with 4 TFLS and 2 sacks last year for UC. Potentially a big pickup in an area of need.

Good news - hopefully we can receive a full roster /portal report from the FB office shortly

A few fishermen in the group, does Coach Martin do team building outings like the basketball team? I know they do volunteer work.

When can be expect an official release from the FB office re portal adds and early fresman admits?

Once we are done in the portal. Not fully wrapped up yet, at least we weren’t on Saturday when I talked to a staff member.

Next season’s OOC schedule

That’s a terrific OOC schedule, but I just don’t have faith in Chuck to put together a team able to pull off the upsets needed to make some noise.

All 4 of those teams are beatable with a decent coach

On paper a very nice portal class. Fits the needs. Not that I care, but 10 are from P4 conferences.

We done with the portal now?
