How do you think this plays out between January 4th and August 30th?

Wonder what Luke J. thought about Mantie Te'o and the remarks he made about his decision to come back for his senior year? You know, college experience and all..
I wouldn't blame any of our big 3 for going to the NFL. Not sure if any of them can begin to imagine what it would be like to return for their senior year and play for a NC as an Aggie. They would be treated like royalty for the rest of their lives.
There is some risk to them. I wouldn't recommend a RB that was a high first round pick sitting out the draft. Way too risky for that position.
Going to be very interesting over the next month or so.

I am interested in the QB and WR positions:
Will matt joeckal or showers transfer?
If both then that leaves M Davis as backup with kenny hill rs
Is kohl stewart gonna be drafted in mlb?
With so much wr talent, will anyone transfer or decommit?
What will happen with thomas johnson?
Will derek griffin make grades or go juco?
Switch Pope or echols-luper etc to safety to spread out talent?
Should be interesting to see how it all plays out.
Its a good problem to have with Evans, RSJ, Quiv, Quay, Kennedy being locks and throw in griffin and/or Thomas Johnson and we will be loaded at skill positions

I "hope" Showers transfers...he's too good. He could play for anybody.

I expect he will. I think he will graduate this summer, so he may take a page out of Russell Wilson's playbook and transfer & play immediately. I agree, he is way too good. He will start at many places, and I wish him nothing but the best

Here's a question I have:
What is the fate of the following players buried in the depth chart?
WR - Nate Askew
OL - Garrett Gramling
DL - Brandon Alexander
DL - Ivan Robinson
DL - Shayvion Hatten
LB - Domonique Patterson
DB - Desmond Gardiner
DB - Clay Honeycutt
DB - Devonta Burns

Alexander is supposed to be a stud and would be needed to step up at the weakest position(dl and specificly de)
Robinson and hatten both have chances to step up as well in the two deep. Lots of seniors gone on defense and even though the studs(Manning and Golden) are coming in, they have a chance, who knows?
Patterson is in same boat, 3 star guy that has opportunity but not likely. The 2nd team defense was horrible this year and needs to be addressed.
Devonta burns was pretty highly regarded safety that hasnt panned out as well as Howard matthews
Askew, gramling, honeycutt dont have a chance. Im not sure what happens with them. If any are playing we are in bad shape

agree with alexander, not too sure about the dts, havent seen/heard much about them
patterson is a flop imo, and i think we only took him cuz of nelson
youre right about burns, he was highly recruited, but don't know much about him. disagree with matthews, i think hes been decent, except for his trent hunter imitations
disagree with askew, i think he'll get limited snaps, somewhere between mcneal and d. walker this season. agree with grambling and honeycutt

McNeal won't see any snaps next season. He's a senior this year.

I disagree with your disagreement. Nate Askew has 9 career catches for 95 yards in 3 years. (29 games)
In contrast, with returning players:
Mike Evans has 75 catches in one season
Malcome Kennedy has 34 catches in two seasons
LeKendrick Williams has 5 catches in two seasons (but has 116 yards and 2 touchdowns - 10 total games)
Derel Walker has 8 catches in one season
Gaston Lemascus (a walk-on) has 5 catches in 12 games
Sabian Holmes has 6 catches in one season
That's six players he's buried behind on the depth chart. Add the seven incoming freshman and redshirt-freshman Edward Pope and the only way Askew sees playing time is at tight end.
