2023 Roster Is Up

[OttoinGrotto]

There are no depth issues on defense. All the open spots should be used on OL and QB

It would be really surprising to add more than one QB though.

There's a lot of room to flex the roster.

I can't see them adding a transfer QB to who wants to sit behind Shrader and then compete with 2 sophomores. Good luck. Missing out on a HS kid was a blow. It'll take a pretty confident transfer QB to even come in the 24 class but the job should be wide open then.

Sorry to hear Rob Hanna hit the portal. He was light but a good special teamer and DB depth. He made some plays as a DB, I thought for sure if he added weight he could compete to start or at least play a big role back there.

Remember villari could switch to qb in a pinch. Not optimal but a 5th option

Is Hanna actually in the portal or is he just not playing?

No longer on the roster.

 

[Dinkyspond]

No longer on the roster.

He was here 3 years, might have graduated with summer credits added in

 

[AngryOtto]

No longer on the roster.

Portal opens April 15. Maybe finishing his degree before transferring.

I do not agree with this

 

[Cusefan69]

QB will be a tough find given current QB room. Probably will have to wait for next cycle. I would try and find a Center and a couple Guards. A TE and if we are lucky in post spring portal uptick maybe a high end WR talent. Depending on Roons health, maybe a back up Mike.

Maybe he didn’t make the grade.

 

[orangemass]

Hanna is the only one that kinda hurts. The rest open us up for some serious portal pounding.

 

[Trueblue25]

Need more depth at DB and the edge imo

Can never have enough depth. Especially for Cuse.

 

[CbusCuse]

I certainly agree with needing DB help. We've been very fortunate to have really good talent at CB for a number of years now but really I have some concerns with both CB and Safety. I mean what we lose from 2022 at CB is Garrett Williams to the NFL and Deuce to LSU and now Nunn. At Safety we lose Ja'Had Carter to OSU, Eric Coley to graduation and now Hannah. We brought in zero 2023 freshman for either position and have added RS Frosh in Bellamy and Gould who are nice prospects but still both unproven. We need to add more than that.

 

[PhatOrange]

So this is my guess and it appears we offered a JUCO CB today with immediate eligibility.

Isaiah Johnson	DB	6' 3''	204	R-Sr.	Corner
Quan Peterson	DB	6' 1''	178	R-Fr.	Corner
Jayden Bellamy	DB	5' 11''	175	R-Fr.	Corner
Jeremiah Wilson	DB	5' 10''	171	So.	Corner
Gregory Delaine	DB	6' 0''	172	R-Fr.	Corner
Cornell Perry	DB	6' 1''	180	R-Fr.	Corner
Justin Barron	DB	6' 4''	220	Jr.	Rover
Aman Greenwood	DB	5' 10''	189	R-Jr.	Safety
Alijah Clark	DB	6' 1''	180	Jr.	Safety
Jaeden Gould	DB	6' 2''	200	R-Fr.	Safety
Jason Simmons Jr.	DB	6' 0''	193	Sr.	Safety
Bralyn Oliver	DB	6' 2''	194	R-So.	Safety
Malcolm Folk	DB	6' 1''	201	R-So.	Safety

I believe Oliver can give us more than enough to cover Hannah loss; at a much bigger frame.

Certainly possible but he wasn't next up last year was he? And he was an add for 2022 so numbers wise it really isn't an add for this year.

That would have been my guess as well but apparently Perry is practicing at safety in spring practice per SUDadx2. Glad he is back though. That makes the numbers rather thin especially at CB. I think we need another there for sure so glad the staff is looking for one.

Having a feeling our kicking game is going to be greatly improved

 

[UpstateSM]

Will Hanna be on the roster this fall?

The punter is the real deal.
