Added Dayne Arnett iol Ferris st.St.

From ON3...

quote:

An all-conference player for the Bulldogs in 2025, Arnett has been part of three Division-II championship squads at Ferris State. He redshirted on the 2022 title team but was a starter in 2024 and 2025. In 2024, he blocked for quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, who was the starter for College Football Playoff team Ole Miss this fall.

Added Seth Smith OL N/R (Northern AZ) and brothers Kelby Collins 4* DL (Bama) and Drew Collins 3* Edge (Akry St)

At this moment in time, up to 17th in ON3's portal rankings and 20th in 24/7.

On3 looks at incoming and outgoing transfers, 24/7 does not.

Surprised nobody's picked up Josiah Thompson yet. What's the probability of recruiting him back to the team?

We have 8 listed OL going out, 6 committed.

No. Just portal pickups.

Added Ryan Brubaker IOL 3* as an out going transfer.

Starting to seriously worry about depth along the OL this fall.

ETA: This gives me a little more confidence.....

Absolutely. Fantastic news. Hopefully the new staff can get the most out of his talent. The team is certainly starting to shape up nicely again.


Again Shane is on a very hot seat, but we can't deny that since the season ended he has done an unreal job of not only keeping things intact but upgrading several areas

Hopefully he comes back with a more determined work ethic. The 5* status obviously went to his head a de used him right and left.

Added Caleb Herring Edge 3* (Former #1 Tennessee HS Player).



Could be a good bookend for D.S....

Very curious stats. Recorded 9 tackles and 5 assists, but of those he had 6 TFL with 4 sacks.

Beamer has several recruits at the women's game tonight. Let's hope it pays off.

Done. Obviously a response to the Herring commit.

I am hearing we may get Michael Smith back, that Syracuse is now willing to release him from his LOI. How would we feel about that

On one hand he is good, and who Shula sucked


on the other, he quit on his teammates

Smith signed pwork on his visit and didn't tell our staff. I say let him go
Also Dez U had already signed a contract with us. Beamer could teach him a real life lesson by enforcement of it.


We also picked up a rb from Texas
