The max we can sign is 23 regardless of who leaves early due to the sanctions.

The only place where Calhoun leaving helps is getting down to 83, which we are well over right now

Best of luck to him!

Don't know whether he'll be missed at LSU, but at least he won't be helping another SEC school.

He was a top 150 player and had lofty measurables. Looked great on film against very good opposition. No reason to see him as anything other than a great recruit, especially with two dozen other BCS schools trying to sign him. Not everybody pans out at the SEC level. Best of luck to him at MTSU.

So it helps is what you are saying, which is what we were saying. I wouldn't be surprised to see... oh I don't know... 8 to 9 more players leave.

Agreed. He may of panned out, we'll never know. But there aren't enough plays to get all the guys on the team the ball.

He was until Crowton fricking blew it for him. This guy could of been our legit speed threat on offense.

Oftentimes you can get a family hardship waiver just by being within a certain mile radius from wherever you're from. Maybe like 100 miles or so. How far is Mufreesboro from Atlanta?

You can probably thank Simon and Matheiu for his transfer. Would you suggest they play worse so everyone gets a turn?

So Crowton was the one that moved him to DB?
