We are going to add more portal guys, Fran isn’t going to overpay for guys, however, so they may not be glamorous but should be solid. I think we will see some JUCO adds, some gems can be found in the spring via that route, some very good players who will have their eligibility clear by then. The world is full of gray and not usually black and white. Next year will be challenging and just making a bowl will be good. That doesn’t mean Fran is punting on the season however, he has a philosophy to build the program. This year was important because it immediately brought excitement towards the program, it gave him instant credibility. Fran isn’t going to settle for just a bowl but we as fans can recognize that it just might be the ceiling. Which is ok as long as a solid plan is being implemented. The guy is extremely organized, he was waiting for this opportunity with notebooks full of Kirby Smart level coaching information.

My take is this: we were really only good at two things this year: passing the ball and coming through in close games. So much of that falls on how great Kyle was.  We now have a QB room that has thrown a combined 11 career passes in college. The drop off there is to me the scary part. I am not worried about a drop off elsewhere when we weren’t so hot to begin with. LQA is the other guy we will miss, dude was a dog for us in the clutch as well and that will be really hard to replace. I think with Fran and Nixon we have two brilliant guys. Wait and see on EROB.
