If I never see another mullet in my life it will be too soon. And considering where I live, that will probably be today. Lol

@Indy Illini Fan do we have a shot at Isaiah Hastings from bama?

We’re the only school he’s visited

Get him and Harmon and the defense will be looking good. I still think Jacas will move inside

 

[therealmiket86]

We lost newton, Keith, daxon, Barnes and McConnell

If we can replace it with Hastings, Jacas, sledge and Johnson that would be great. Still would like to see them add 1 more. Plus we have Terah Edward’s for depth at nose

 

[therealmiket86]

Also need to add at db. Bailey and hill are coming off season ending injuries

I’d prefer active players, but that’s just me.

Looking at Hastings from AL they also have JaCory Brooks in the portal. He was one of there top WR two years ago. He was injured this for most of the year. Would be a good pick up if he hasn’t committed.

Sledge might be backing up Edwards.

Still players?! I never considered football because I'm slow as heck, but Still positions sound appealing. Tell me more. /s

It's position pioneered in Kentucky.

Not sure WRs are a priority. Would like to seem what Elzy can do in a featured role. Also more reps for Beatty. Sanders can take that the IW position. Bryant has been good and Hollins showed potential with his reps.
