[QUOTE="InsideLB, post: 775806, member: 857"] Given where our program is now--needing help BADLY on the defensive front 7, OL, and at WR--my expectations for next year have gone up due to our success in the transfer portal. 4 of the 7 transfers have a ton of P5 experience/production. OL Cochran and DE White (who dominated VT & UVA) are pro-prospects. LB Ayinde was Maryland's 2nd leading tackler and has prototypical length/size for a Collins LB. WR McGowan led Northwestern in all-purpose yards. OT Pendley has played in 5 games in at Miss St and is still young--but has a couple of years of college S&C development. That's valuable depth/competition for the OL. 3 of the 7 transfers are defenders who don't have a lot of experience but were highly regarded recruits with good offers from p5 programs. DE Kevin Harris (Bama) & DB Kenyatta Watson (Texas) were elite recruits and are young, high ceiling kids with 1-2 years of development under their belt. Makius Scott is a solid DT prospect from USCe who has a year of development under his belt. Scott will have to play next year, ready or not. I'd be surprised if Harris doesn't play some too. He has the prototypical length Collins likes and is a better fit schematically for us than for Bama. I don't think all our problems are magically solved or anything, but games are won and lost in the trenches. We have bolstered our trenches with some key additions that will make us more competitive next year. I don't know what I expect for wins but I do want to see us continue to get better in all aspects.
