... will return more starters from last season that will we.

At least according to this: LINK

But I think they may have our count wrong. If not, that does actually change things somewhat in terms of degree of difficulty with the upcoming schedule.

We were one of the youngest teams in the country last season. How is it that we are apparently returning so few starters?

Defensively , we are losing 2 Safeties, Lammons and Smith, a corner, King, a LB in Moore, and 2 DL in Sawyer and Stallworth. So they got that count right.

Offensively we are only losing Hurst, Knott, and Helms. So IDK where they got the extra loss there.

Wasn't Bama one of the youngest too?

Yes they were but theirs is as much about early departures as it is anything ... I think, without looking at it really closely.

70% of our roster, last year, was made up of RSophs or younger. And we didn't have a full roster if I remember correctly ... on 77 were on scholarship. We were 8 short of a full compliment.

Even with our full allotment of 25 signees this year I'm still not sure if we'll give 85 schollies this coming season unless a walkon or two receive the extras. I dunno, I quit keeping my hotsheet a few years ago .... but I know some other sites copied my stuff so I'm sure there is one around somewhere I just wouldn't know where to find accurate numbers this early in the year.
