Agree 100%.  Two areas I was disappointed w HCJAB was his use of the scholarships.  It seemed like our last scholarship got turned into a reward for senior walk-ons.  A nice warm fuzzy for the hard work they put in, but it did nothing to better the team.  Part of it was not wanting to give the scholarship to someone expecting to stay 4 years that may never contribute.   The new rules make that being given to a senior/grad transfer a no brainer with little downside.  Speaking of downside, that was my other issue with the roster.  It seemed like we did not recruit over players or bring in competition often enough.  Admirable respect for the current players but it didn't make the team better.  I call this the "Marvin Lewis/Andy Dalton Syndrome."  The dumbest statement I ever heard a coach make was Marvin Lewis when asked if the Bengals would bring in another QB.
