There is some talk on the 247 boards about Hood possibly entering the portal.
That would suck. He's probably in the 2 deep right now and on track to start next year. Hopefully he doesn't, but at least its the deepest position.

Need WRs now. At least 2 and then finish out the 85 with best available regardless of position. I’d prefer 3 WRs.
I know we after after the guy from Penn St and he guy from Houston. Have you heard about anyone else?

Haven’t heard of any others but we will need bodies just to go through full reps at WR. I’m not sure the numbers exactly so this is a guess but when Simmons and Thompson come in I think we are at 9 scholarship WRs. I would assume Freeze wants 10-12 at minimum.

Hood and Tyler Scott into the portal. DB room def took a hit today as far as depth goes. We should still be ok there though, especially if we do end up getting Fegans.

Other rumor is Scott following Reed to UCF.

Explains the lights out recruiting and volume at DB still, which is good.

This is the new norm

Yep. Also a legacy

I liked Tyler Scott a little more. Both seemed to be doing OK

I think not having starting opportunities makes it hard to keep guys who might benefit from NIL deals where they’re more needed

Yep they will have a chance to start wherever they do. Those guys are good. We just happen to have guys older than them that are starting this year and apparently really nailed the HS class and those guys are pushing for playing time too. Just a consequence of a deep room. I expected a couple from the DB room, just wasn't sure who they would be.

Man, I had high hopes for Hood. Hate to see him go.

We have plenty of talent a cb but Hood wasn't far behind Scott and it's not unreasonable to think he could have pushed him back to nickel before the season was over. It's a loss and acting otherwise is a little sour grapes

The only time it doesn't bother me is when we land someone from it

Not sour at all. Dude hasnt done anything in his career at Auburn and hasnt stood out at any point to me. Hood is also on the smaller size and not built for the SEC. Thats my opinion based on decades of in depth arm chair Qbing from the stands. Respect it
