Some big names have entered the transfer portal lately… which isn’t great for next season.

Might be wrong but I think both have probably been around long enough to graduate this spring.  Who can blame them, especially if we dont offer a MS in whatever career goals they have in mind.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Brandon did say he's exploring, so might not find a better opportunity.  We do have Ty coming back with 3 years left.  He started at center in the spring and 3 starts at guard last year.  Believe Michael Ross is back after missing last year, so a guard with 21 starts.

Sucks losing Mason as he's been our most consistent OLB.  Are we moving to a 4-3 and not a the best fit for DE?  Maybe it is the MS thing.

Was a fan of both guys and hope they end up staying.  If not, best of luck.

Definitely going to miss the Mason and Malkow families.  They have both done a lot for the team.  But, if kids don't want to be here 100%, I really don't want them here.  We need everyone bought in and working towards the same goal.

Also Albany and UT-Chattanooga. Mason has an offer from Indiana State as well.

And, Senior O-Lineman Mike Ross is out now too...
