Losing a fair bit off this years team for 2023, not reasonable to expect that year 2. But if this class holds and they put together another top 5 class next year, we’ll be ready to roll in 2024.

Yeah, you might be right, but the 2023 class is going to be wild. I think we're in the mid-70's now for scholarship players, and depending on early draft entries, our roster could allow us to sign 35 players. So would we get 35 freshmen, or save about 10 spots for transfers that can plug in and start at key positions immediately.

Transfer portal can quicken a rebuild if you're aggressive enough. Look at what Alabama did this past class.
