Looking at all 88 scholarships

I see just one former walk on, Dominique Thomas. I see just three Daniel high players; Venables, Lawson and Kelley, all recruited and offered out of high school. Just one former coaches son, Venables.
Can we at least do away with that narrative

and never replaced. This was one of the reasons Makuba was playing corner and why the secondary was a weakness

88 scholarships. NO room for Portalers.
You can't Portal someone in when you have a 26 member recruiting class and 7,7,yes 7 take the extra COVID year to come back. You're a joke LOL

injuries were huge. Zanders retires. Jones, Venables, Phillips, Mukuba and Greene all hurt at times, and missing games for most. The three freshmen were baptized under fire. In the long run they'll be better for it. We return our top 10 this year.
Who transferred out of any consequence?

plus with that much attrition you are continually replacing it with hs seniors. Losing depth that has college experience

that’s bc Dabo never used the portal. That’s his fault, not an excuse.
I’ll go look it up for you. Charleston was one..

they were playing due to injuries to Jones and Greene, and Fred Davis being in Dabo's love shack. They were 3rd team. You're expecting juniors to hang around and be 3rd team, or people to transfer in to be backups?

Furthermore, F.Davis’ PT kept declining as our true FR DBs’ performance improved.
‘Losing’ Fred Davis was good for us with respect to roster numbers.

to believe players transferring for playing time are go come here to build depth. LOL Those looking for NIL $$$ aren't getting that as backups.

You’re grasping.
Each of your subsequent attempts to support your position gets weaker.
Salvage what’s left of your self-respect and dig around for another weak sauce shot at the Clemson football program.

For a non-adult (I.e., in your words), Tiger80 is sure whipping you as far as emotional self control.
There are medicines for that kind of thing.

Fred Davis was expected to be a lockdown corner but that never panned out. Thus Mukuba. It happens

The big question is who are the 3 that will not be there? Daniel high school has been very good for us through the years and former Lions have helped us have many wins. Some people are just jealous their high school could never beat Daniel.

I for one am not jealous. Our Powdersville boys did the unthinkable and beat y’all. Even though we lost in the championship game.
