Good luck Jaren Lewis. I'd be shocked if he's the only departing QB.

Really? That one stings a bit, he was losing snaps to younger players but he really helped us last year

Decoldest,

It looks like his right arm is longer than his left arm.   I don't know is this a good thing for a WR or bad thing?

Better than one arm shorter

He's listed on the on3 site as in the portal. I'm sad to lose a GA recruit.

Always liked TJ. A hard hitting young DB, but it seems all our guys are. Just too many dudes in the mob secondary. He’ll shine at his new destination.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

At the same time Keenan Garber somehow got on the field as a DB (different position I guess)

Yeah, TJ Smith's fall from grace surprised me.  He looked good in his handful of snaps as a frosh.

Konner Fox in the portal also. Not really a big surprise there either

Gundy doesn't strick me as very likeable. Wasn't there a lot of friction with players a couple of years ago on BLM  stuff?

Really dumb question, but... if someone enters the portal solely to feel out NIL deals from other schools, wanting to put pressure on their current school to get more $$$, they can just get more money and stay with their current school if the staff would allow them, correct?

Yes. This is known as the “portal chortle”. The player gets his NIL and the last laugh.

The offense was rough this year and OSU fans have been complete dicks to Sanders. My surprise is that he has a year left, I thought he was a super senior this year.

Gundy lost the team. There’s a players revolt unfolding real time.

We're totally gonna be the new kings of the B12. Gonna be a great 15-20 year run under Klieman/Klein.

I wouldn't call that a player revolt, unless there's something more happening not being reported on that link. We had a very similar transfer portal experience in 2020

Take a closer look at who all is leaving so far
4yr starting qb
Leading rusher
Leading receiver
Leading tackler
And so on
