It is great to dream but the reality is that OL are the scarcest commodity in the portal.  Most of the best have already been scooped up.  The few left are either looking at enormous paydays with the Michigan and Texas type programs with almost unlimited NIL to spend, or might not be better than what we have today.

I would be surprised and thrilled if we can find even one player in the portal or the JUCO ranks that is good enough to beat out our starters.

I think there are some class of 2024 prospects with a lot of promise out there that we would have a better chance getting.  But they are almost surely going to take some time to develop.

I checked to see if UL has any OL in the portal that Coach Williams might be familiar with.  There is one OG.  Maybe we reach out to him?  He did not sound highly recruited.

It is extremely slim pickings out there.

Our best bet might end up saving a couple of slots to pick up an OL who wants out after spring ball.  There will be a new wave of OL disgruntled after getting beaten out for starting positions and our staff has a lot of contacts to a lot of players.

If Kyle McCord verbals here this weekend, along with Haynes and some of the other top recruits here, maybe this helps here.
