Bobman1 Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 Please delete this post if I’m getting absurdly greedy or forward thinking, but, with the NCAA allowing all athletes another year of eligibility, what are the odds Philyor, Fryfogle, and McFadden decide to stick around for a shot at the playoff?

Magnanimous Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 The WRs are gone. McFadden is most likely to be a 7th rounder or UFA. Probably comes back but depends on the feedback he gets. Quote

IUc2016 Posted December 6, 2020 Posted December 6, 2020 I do think the player that has a chance to leave early and get drafted is Jamar Johnson. He has had an awesome year at safety Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
Bobman1 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Posted December 7, 2020 I would anticipate an improved offensive line, Tuttle at QB but hopefully Penix is 100% and Scott at RB. WRs I’m not worried about with the younger guys and the defense should be just as good. Exciting timesSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
MemphisHoosier Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 For context below is the list of Graduates, 5th Years and Seniors this season. My biggest concern is the OL since CTA could potentially lose Crider, Nworah, and Powell. I feel 'fine' at receiver, d-line, and specialists if younger players continue to develop & step up, and I have no reason to think they won't. Toothdr, HoosierAloha, johnsoniu and 1 other 4 Quote

maharkn Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Marcelino surely would be granted another year with the injury this year Sent from my SM-A515U1 using Tapatalk Bobman1 1 Quote
Brass Cannon Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Didn’t everybody get a year on that list? Even the 5th years Quote

MemphisHoosier Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 5 minutes ago, johnsoniu said: Correct. This year doesn't count for towards eligibility. The question will be, which players 'want' to come back for the 2021 season? I can see some of the men who have been in Bloomington for five years or so being ready to move on and start that next chapter, e.g. similar to how we think about Joey Brunk on the court. Looking at 247, CTA has 13 commitments for next year plus the FSU transfer, Matthews. 14 is a smaller class than what we have traditionally seen in Bloomington so I am sure the staff has solid expectations for which players are/are not sticking around. Either way, the scholarship numbers always work themselves out. Quote

Either way, the scholarship numbers always work themselves out. I get what you're saying, but just to clarify: Players with exhausted eligibility that decide to return next year will not count towards the 85 scholly limit. I cited Dylan Powell above, with the extra year he was already granted, he will still count toward the 85 limit. If Jerome Johnson wants to take the NCAA up on their offer of a freebie year, he can return and it doesn't count towards the 85 limit. We were going to have a small class anyway. If all those guys listed above decide to return it won't effect the incoming class size. HoosierAloha 1 Quote
