Message: [QUOTE="Powellfan, post: 3908777, member: 4819"] There were only real three transfers out there, I think, that are difference makers and they are all gone (Lulley, Khan and Pryblski). I doubt SU had any real chance at them. The guy that makes me wonder "what if" is Owen Murphy from Hopkins, would have four years of eligibility and SU needs more attackmen. Find it interesting that he went to Maryland and former OC Benson. Oh well. There are some SSDMs in the portal, including Harrison Bardwell from Cornell and Parker Alexander from UNC. On the LSM side, there is still Mo Sillah from Towson and Peter Rizzoti from Dartmouth. No idea if any of these guys would consider SU, but there are still names to watch. I would prefer that SU only bring in guys that can add instant impact, there's not really a need to add more depth as the roster is plenty big. So I'd be more upset if they brought in transfers just for the sake of it. It felt like they did this last year with some of the additions. Plus as new coaches you probably want to show a little faith in the guys you inherit and make them feel wanted, over bringing in new guys just to add new faces. Not sure what the defense will look like next year. Personally I think the more new faces the better. Pretty frustrating that we are still debating where Kennedy should play. I wish they would have found a number one close defender by now. Easier said than done. It looks like help will arrive in '23, but this year might be rough going. I have a little more faith in the SSDMs than some, I liked the way Olexo looked last year and some guys who probably weren't expecting to play got to see a lot time (Rosa, Woody, Olexo). Hopefully some of these guys improve, and it's been said but have to think Aviles has a bounce back year. There is some cause for optimism here. [/QUOTE]
