Sooooo in case you're keeping track of losses...

[18IsTheMan]

We are losing our leading passer, leading receiver and leading rusher.

Two of those are for legitimate reasons, but losses are losses.

QB I'm not super worried. For whatever reason, I feel very good about Sellers. He just looks the part to me. I'm sure some will vehemently disagree, but just my opinion. We do need a serviceable backup.

WR could be addressed in the portal. Of course, we always assume the players we are getting are good players. As we stand today, we don't have any proven entity at WR.

RB is code red at this point. We are left with Braswell as the only true RB. We won't know about Hill until January.

Which two are legit? Rattler is legit (that's one). Headed to the league after 4yrs in college, and he's pretty-well ready. We all knew this was likely his path.
#3 punked us, and #24 has turned and bitten the hand that fed him - plucked him from DII, giving him a chance to play in the best fb conference.

Rattler and Legette. Those are legit.

Anderson is not.

Linemen are needed. Most teams do pretty well with any QB with great linemen. Need DL also.

Linemen are essential, but you still gotta folks who can throw, catch and run the ball.

Ah, gotcha! See, Legette being *so* legitimate, I wasn't even thinking of him as a "loss".

crazy you wouldn't think of a top 7 in the country in receiving yards (2nd in SEC), an either 1st or 2nd team all SEC WR and probably 1-2nd round draft pick as a loss...

I believe he probably meant he doesn’t see him as a loss in the sense that he’s leaving to go to another school. He is a loss in that he’s leaving the team, but he’s obviously leaving a team for extremely legitimate reasons. He’s been around and paid his dues and put in his time.

You're misunderstanding my point; Dude was a senior. It's time, and perfectly understandable for him to be heading to the NFL. Absolutely he's a "loss" - Not an unforeseen loss, is maybe the better way to put it.

Precisely.

ahhh I gotcha. Definitely misunderstood that. I guess because you didn't include QB/Rattler in that I thought you were slighting XL for some reason.
