Something to keep in mind re-portal this year is the 105 roster limits. Can’t just go grab a million guys without any thought - everything needs to be strategic and fit with the numbers we need at each position
Is this actually a hard-and-firm thing now? Or are we still in a grandfathering period?

It’s a legit rule - we had to essentially “tag” the guys on our roster last year that would’ve been cut if we were going to 105 so they wouldn’t count against our cap until they exhaust eligibility, everyone not tagged and added in the future counts towards the limit

Thanks. I was wondering about that.

If the highly-apid HC and GM of our team haven't figured out exactly who is getting cut, who is staying, and what do we need to fill by now, then I'm disappointed.
 
I’ve said this before, but my portal dream would be to pull Caleb Hawkins from North Texas. Doak Walker semi finalist and just a freshman.

He’s not in the portal yet, but it seems likely. Early smart money would be that he’ll follow Morris to Okie State, but he’s following coaches/staff from multiple schools on Twitter (including Barthel) which makes me think he’s willing to test the market and break from Morris to go elsewhere.
