There are two bits of information I would be hyped about. 1st...that we land him. 2nd...that he is eligible without sitting.

I don't think he will be needed quite as much next year as this year. We need the frosh (and even sophs) to have time to grow. It would also allow someone to redshirt if he plays this year.

If he sits a year and then comes in and fills a role that a frosh or soph had filled this year I would worry about losing someone in the portal.

Assuming we land Dejulius and he is available this year (which is not as likely). We could red-shirt Davenport and either Saunders or Mason M.

I think there is a good chance every transfer is available next year.

That is what I am hoping too. Also that there is a season to watch this year...LOL!

It's crazy looking at Mich Barttorvik site. They had Simpson and Brooks 6'0" and 6'1" playing over 30 minutes each. Also DeJulius playing over 20 minutes at 6'0".

You don't see that very often

I would be surprised if there were sports in the fall. I think football and basketball will get pushed back to the start of 2021 or no fans. Too much money for them to lose the whole seasons. Schools will be in trouble if they lose those seasons.
