    O'Cyrus Torrence didn't open a slot?

    For pub sake, I would have offered him a portal slot as a walk on.

    I also saw yesterday we offered an OL with a few FCS offers. Not the young man from Central Louisiana. I can’t find the tweet but he was listed around 6’ 4” - 250 lbs. likely another huge upside kid.

    Didn't we lose 6-7 kids to the portal? Seems like that would open up that many scholarships.

    Didn’t realize you were talking walk on slots. I guess he could offer those. I don't think many kids in the portal are looking for walk on opportunities, but i could be wrong. It is my understanding with the covid year we were at 92 scholarships before those 7 or so entered the portal and now they need to get more in line with the 85 allotted for FBS programs. So the departures didn’t necessarily open that many spots.

    Some offers will be preferred walk-on when they visit. This will be hased out once in on visit.

    There's something everyone needs to understand about the portal. While there are very good players and young men to be had, you have to be careful in vetting them. Because in some cases, you'll get talent that's in the portal because they are someone else's trouble.

    One thing Billy always said (and so did Robe) is being a good teammate is paramount for success, especially at the G5 level.
