Kpai seemed like a really good get when he came here, yet nothing. I remember hearing he has maybe been hurt quite a bit?

It seems Bonner was maybe sold a bill of goods on the position switch. Good athlete who was under utilized

Nothing personal here your posts are fine..... but seriously it isn't even an issue, not sure why some of you ever bring it up... no one has ever got in trouble or anything for being over the scholarship limit, EVER! It doesn't happen.....

Sims isn't graduating, so will he really transfer (again)? I don't see how he transfers... does he not have to sit if he does? Looked to me like he had zero interest in playing at all after the second game...I find it hard to believe he'd transfer....but i'll help him pack if he does.

The RE J. Williams. He's not going anywhere.
Agreed. What sense would it make to ditch the team that gave you a chance in the first place and developed you into a contributor? I keep forgetting about this guy but he's another example of Rhule finding a player that wasn't really recruited and turning him into an immediate contributor. Shows evaluation skills and coaching skills.

Unless there is another Williams on the team?

Is this the walk on? Plenty of upside with him…

Forgot about rollins, remember when he moved to d line and coaches made it seem like he was going to be a major player? Did he play?

Can't you just take away the scholarship and 'urge' them to be a walk-on?

This is really good thing. If we are going to get to 85 Appleget is the exact player we need to leave. I know that sounds harsh but the kid was never going to see the field here. He could probably go to a 1AA program and be a primary target for them.

If he’s graduating then he can be dropped off scholarship?

He was a pretty good athlete in hs, but I guess that wasn't good enough for NU espec. because Carter and Ian are coming in. Good luck to the young man.
