Watched a highlight video of Kenari Wilcher. Not a big WR but is really fast and can outrun a team’s secondary. Has quite a bit of burst. Can’t wait to see what he can do.

I see Wilcher taking IW's spot, after next season. Would love a candid assessment (from McDonald or Lunney) of Hollins' and Pugh's development and prospects.

I don’t think we will need another WR from the portal if/when Elzy commits to us.
Need? Maybe not but there's no such thing as too much depth, especially at injury prone positions like WR. That position group might be the most talented it's been in awhile next year but a lot of that talent is underclassmen.

We have more important priorities over another WR…we will have plenty of depth at that position. Hightower will be coming back and you still have Bryant. No need to live on the portal. Another RB and the O-line is a bigger priority.

think RB is pretty big need IMO. Our running game wasn't very good yesterday.

I can be an effective RB with a strong OLine. I think some big nasties are always the most important part of an offense. Well, unless your QB is just a superstar, but even then they need time.

How about Isaac Guerendo as a RB transfer candidate? Averaged 6 ypc this season for Wisconsin and also featured as a pass catcher and returner. 1 year of eligibility remaining. Could be a solid rotation piece along with Love, McCray, etc. but maybe not a feature guy (though I’m guessing this might be what he’s looking for).

We are set for RB’s next year. Coaching staff is excited about red shirt freshman, Jordan Anderson. He will be our featured back along with true freshman, Kaden Feagin. Both will be studs. Look for McCray to switch positions.

Maybe in time they will be our featured backs but not next year. These two are just going to surpass both Love and McCray? I have a hard time believing BB is going to roll with a true freshman and an redshirt freshman. I've been wrong before, but I don't buy this.

I'm going to guess that our RB rotation will be Love, McCray, Feagin, and that we won't even think about bringing in a transfer RB.
