We need at least 2 linemen, 2 cbs, 2 lbs,and a fast def end. Jr college players with experience have not proven to be able to play sec ball.

No we don’t. 2 CB and 2 DT? Sure. We’ve got plenty of LB’s and enough defensive ends. They are not going get 8 players in the portal.

Well, we're definitely not adding 7 new players to the roster from the spring portal ... or period.

If we can get a solid SEC level starter, and a decent rotational DT, that alone would make me incredibly happy. 2 DTs. We may add one or two others, but they would have to be exceptional, proven, with multiple years of eligibility.

They would have to be. We're already 3 past having to drop a player for any we add.

We will have some attrition after spring ball, everyone does, but as it stands right now we would have to lose 5 players to be able to add even the 2 DT I'm praying we get.

It's just not a formula that's gonna allow us to be much more active in the portal than that.
