Sherrer and Rocker were expected to move on after this season. Rumph might follow soon.

Rump is another one that is a good coach, but weak recruiter. Would be nice if Pruitt could find two upgrades in that department.

Doubt it. It was common knowledge Rocker wouldn't be retained for weeks.

Anybody on the D line now has a case for transferring if they so desire. And a much better one than “ my daddy is too fuking stupid to operate a folding chair”.

Middleton, Gooden and Emerson are the only 3 worth a damn and they’re TN kids who aren’t going anywhere.

What about the guy who transferred from Michigan?

Ironically, he is the reason that Kirby let Rocker go, and then he ends up with Rocker.

The insinuation was that the "Transfer portal opened up for D linemen" because Rocker was leaving. So, if the players knew he wouldn't be retained, why would they wait until now to enter the portal? It has everything to do with the initial quote.

Well, since it has been common knowledge for a while you would think those three star recruits would have announced already.

Tennessee is not retaining him either so you might get your wish.

Solomon didn’t have much of an impact last year. He was OK for depth.

Damn, Coach Rock gets around.

Ole Miss, Arkansas, Auburn, UGA, Tenn, and now USCe.

It was rumored most of the season he was going to be retiring when we weren’t expected to retain him. Surprised he took another job.

When Aubrey S entered the transfer portal, there was a lot of speculation he'd end up at UGA. So I watched videos of his games at Michigan, and he never stood out. Like you say, good for depth but never saw anything that looked like his recruit ranking. Maybe this is the year he shines, since it's now or never.
