The NCAA has screwed us in multiple ways, but the required scholarship reduction actually gives Coach Drink a great opportunity. He can trim no to low impact players to begin cleaning up some of Odom’s recruiting failures without being the guy who came in and decided to run people off or pull scholarships from former walk-ons. The NCAA has done this to us.
The following 5 guys should see the writing on the wall and transfer while they have the most opportunities available to them if they wish to continue playing football:
T. Powell
S. Bakare
M. Wilson
L. Christopherson
A. Matute
Anyone else known to have poor work habits or a bad attitude should be removed as well regardless of impact. If you followed the leader and cucked a teammate for example, you need to go. Start fresh from day 1. Do it sooner than later.
If you need even more scholarships you look at:
K. Thompson
A. Thompson
S. Martin
As a last resort you can return the following to walk on status for a year:
D. Downing
B. Bannister
There is ample opportunity to bring in players, stay at 80, and allow the NCAA to shoulder the blame. It is a gift that should be taken advantage of. Clean house.
