Kaylib Singleton in the portal

Damn. That one stings for depth and future starting talent. Seems like he would have been the third corner and would get a good deal of time even if no injuries occur. But what are the chances of that being the case two years in a row. With Peal and Samuels in the fold it seems like replacing his spot with true freshman is the best route to go, but unfortunately it’s a bit late for that.

Well, we have Chase I think he will fill in nicely.
 
Certainly was a promising player. He was 20th in tackles on the team. 9th leading tackler amongst DBs. Every year new players step up. Good luck to him. He will be replaced.
 
We're not "good" at CB if we keep losing players at the position. Starting true freshmen/transfers at CB is a recipe for blown coverages and big plays.

Hopefully we can bring in one or two from Toledo that know the system already.
That could be helpful. What about signed 2026 Toledo recruits? Are they free to sign elsewhere with the coaching staff leaving? Dude has lots of good offers and even had one from Syracuse.

We loss one kid who played spot minutes last year, it’s not the end of the world.

How would we start a freshman or transfer next year when Peal and Samuels are coming back?

He played 8 games averaging about 18 snaps a game. Those are meaning amounts of time in game.
Even a high end recruit like Samuels struggled to start as a freshman.
CB for us is not plug and play freshman for us.
We need to be able to buil depth at some point.

And it's nice to have college level experience. The jump from freshman year to sophomore year is huge.

I agree, but like I said, it’s not the end of the world. It hurts, yes, but let’s not act like this will make or break our season. The portal gives and the portal takes.

That's why the portal can be our friend here. In prior scenarios this would maybe hurt more but those snaps should be replaceable. There has to be better than a fair shot of our new DC bringing one or two DBs from his old team as well.

Players get hurt all the time.

We need serviceable nickel/dime corners for the teams that go 3/4 wide because we don't have coverage LBs on the current roster.

Peal/Samuels could regress and then we're in trouble.

This isn't CFB26 on PlayStation.

Kaylib could regress? Anything is possible, I personally won’t lose sleep over this lol.
