Looks like you are way off on the 27 - 30.

We will have only 10 seniors next year, including Reggie Carter, who could ask for a medical redshirt.

Add one for Grayson.

We will, however, have only 78 to 79 on scholarship by the time August rolls around (we have 58 coming back and 20 to 21 coming in, and that opens up about 6 or 7 spots plus 11.

Even with some attrition, we are a lot more likely to have 20 to 21 spots to fill against the cap of 85 than 27 - 39.

Might lose some to the draft as well.

No wonder Kirby wanted to save some spots for the class.

This isn't accounting for guys that just don't make it. We've only had a couple of losses thus far, but once practices start, guys go through a full season, there is a chance that guys decide it's not for them. "It's a process"... Suffice it to say, if there are 27-30 guys that Kirby wants, my guess is he finds a way. He's learned from the master.

Interesting. Thanks for the correction, I counted 14 seniors (not sure how).

I suppose we’ll see some attrition, but this tells me we have a very young roster. It’ll be interesting to see how Kirby manages those numbers. I expect 5-6 of those projected 21 in ’17 to be O-line.
