re: Kind of feel bad for all the players that’ll be processed over the next few months

1) they're not being tossed out on their asses. They're being told they're not going to play here and there may be better opportunities for them elsewhere. Our coaches and staff may even help them find a new home. The coaching community talks

If they aren’t discipline problems, most guys will be allowed to hang around and get their degrees if they choose to. The team needs depth, practice bodies, and guys to play special teams. The staff would prefer those spots go to younger players, but I don’t think they are literally telling guys to hit the bricks. Not unless the roster crunch gets severe.

The staff knows the truth. Most kids are going to leave to get playing time elsewhere when they are told they aren’t ever going to crack the 2 deep here. The staff likely gives them all great recommendations to any coach who comes asking and helps them find a good landing spot when they can.
