re: Transfer Portal Board Discussions (Dec - Jan Window)

Injuries are starting to pile up for him so maybe not. When healthy, he was their best DB

La guy trying to get home. Couldn’t tell you anything else about him.

Wonder if Cain knows him. ?

Maybe the Jayden Daniels connection may help unless he goes to Cal.

Great kid, hard worker. I hope he can get back home and play some ball close.

Goodwin, OL from Kentucky.

Don’t think I’ve seen as many pancakes as what I saw in his film highlights. At 6’8” 340, he was lead blocking for a RB 50 yds down the field. His film is worth watching just for the entertainment value. A massive human being…

I was jazzed till I look into him some. What I've read says we went 380 this whole season and only played on FG/PAT's.

Eta: OLignment candidate? Bradford as an example.

Looks like we're just going to have to be patient. Not many difference makers (on paper anyway) out there.

Aaron Anderson commits to the Tigers 12/18/22! Return game problems should be OVAH!

Justin Flowe LB Oregon took the bag from Arizona. Sheesh.

On3 has Jalen Lee DT Soph 6-2 299 Florida (Watson/Live Oak) pretty much coming home with 2 years eligibility left. Announcing on Wednesday.
Looks like one DL done, baws. I'm looking for at least one more.
Shand from Arizona (offered 12/11) goes 290 and has played both DT and DE.
And the big fish is still out there though we don't seem to be in the picture anywhere:
Braden Fiske DT RS-JR 6-5 300 Western Michigan --- Offered 12/6

If Tigers pull Swinson, Shand, and Lee I'd call this a solid first window for the DL.
Each of the 3 should/will be able to give 15 (the number most kicked around here) or so plays making for quality depth pieces.
And don't underestimate the value of DLignment and different position Coaches making for possible improvement.
