Well - that sucks, if true.

Thought he’d be a big part of the rotation this year.

 

[Shrmdougluvr]

Makes sense. I thought he played quite well at the end of 2018, but really regressed last season. Assume younger players have passed him on the depth chart.

Seemed like a good kid and capable player - wish him well.

 

[Cusefan69]

Good luck to him!!

 

[money3189]

Coley and Stritz were competing for the Rover Safety position. Maybe he wanted guaranteed playing time as a senior. We could have at least used his depth if anything. I wish him well.

 

[Orangejet]

Adios Allen!

We have a depth chart? I wonder if we have a season.

Spring practice, before everything went to Hell.

I didn’t see it. Depth about it.

I wonder if they move Clarke to that rover spot?

Clarke’s the famous hit stick, could get the dome going.

wonder how ready RGL Labrosse is

Would love for Labrosse and Carter to step up. Its just hard to predict what these guys can give as true freshmans.

thought the same

 

[Bulldog04]

This actually surprises me

 

[OttoinGrotto]

He saw the field pretty regularly and seemed like a decent player. Here's hoping he lands somewhere he can play more.

 

[jgeorge322]

Shocked he is a senior already. Where has the time gone.

 

[dan7800]

I always thought he was really held back by the fact that he started at RB, a posistion he was never going to see much of the field at, before switching the DB.

We promised him a shot at playing RB.
We landed him because of it.
He got a shot.

Then he switched back to DB/S, which is what everybody else was recruiting him for.

We don’t give him that chance, he probably ends up at Michigan or elsewhere.

 

[Rocco]

Hopefully he got his degree from Syracuse while he was here and can pick up a Master's degree at his next stop. Best of luck to him. Great kid, I've met him a few times.

Trotter's in the portal too, right? What's that, 12 out of 22 on guys on the defensive two-deep are freshman or sophomores ... 13 assuming Thompson ends up in that slot.

Are Barron and Wax expected to play offense or defense? Sure seems like there's a greater need, and likely a clearer path for playing time, on D.

Yeah, he may not have made the best decision for his career by waiting to make the shift. Then again, it's a game, and you need to enjoy playing it, or what's the point?

 

[MadNY3]

This is the only departure that hurts a little bit. Depth. Experience. And he made two-deep.

Wish him well, but wish we were not losing him.

Barron - D
Wax - O

 

[UD1954]

After last years defense the coaches weren't the only one's put on notice...…..we're gonna be real young on defense this year.

 

[money3189]

Barron - D
Wax - O

I think Wax is playing LB now
