Apparently we are out of contention for the ULL O Lineman.

Bryan Matthews response:

I am certainly not surprised.

It seems to me it would be hard to recruit a talented portal OL when he sees that your team is returning EIGHT (8), repeat EIGHT, offensive linemen with starting experience. They've put themselves between a proverbial rock and a hard place.

Maybe we need to start showing the portal linemen tape from the past 6 years

This is the greatest spin I've ever seen. Direct him to this board so they can see what we think about our current OL. Maybe then our Internet fans can work in our favor.

Nah. That’s Calzada.

Story is a 4* defender that slick Eason will take with him.

I think someone else posted it the other day and I'm starting to agree.. these guys are coming back because we missed on our portal targets. I don't think they factored into portal players decision to come here or not.

We all kind of suspected Caden Story to be out. Guessing this has something to do with Jack Pyburn just having his visit.

Caden Story essentially decommitted when he didn’t sign on ESD when every other commit signed. He had been committed since July so it was odd that ESD “snuck up on them”.

He had a productive senior season and I definitely liked him in this class. Others said he was pushed out. We’ll never truly know.

For whatever it’s worth, I thought we were better off with him.

Or maybe and hear me out cause it's a crazy theory the UL L lineman is following his coach to UF?

When our program isn’t any better than UF’s or LSU then we can’t be surprised when a kid goes to one of those programs because their coach landed there or because they’re from there.

It’s why we got Oregon’s starting DT and CB. They had a coaching change and we benefited from the local pull.

We’re only going to pull replacement level guys from the portal until our outlook improves.
