Lets see. Returners (7): Fagbemi, Sevilla, Stokes, Rawlins, Esso-Essi, Chappell, and Suljanovic. HS (1): Caspian Jones. Transfers (4): Veniamin Abosi, Clarence Massamba, Julian Margrave, and Nnadalu Noble. Assuming all are on some kind of scholly, that's 12 (unless I missed someone). Fully funded is up to 15. I doubt we get that high, but it does feel like we could get one more and maybe a walk on. And for those who care about these things, size wise we go 2x6'10, 1x6'9", 2x6'8", 2x6'6", 3x6'5", 1x6'1", 1x6'0". Doesn't really tell us much about the true size of the team as it will all depend on who earns playing time.

This roster has no chance. Tom Abatemarco is on staff? What a clown show. The only interesting thing to watch will be at what point they pull the plug on Les.

I’ll bite my words if I’m wrong, but I really don’t think Les is going to work with this move to the MW. I believe it’s going to be a difficult transition anyways and don’t see a stale formula being the thing that helps bring us to the next level. I have personal gripes with how he seems to talk to players and his general demeanor, but I think he’s overall been a good coach, assuming good dude, but it feels like it’s time to pass the torch imo.

Now I can also see a scenario where Les is the exact coach we need to continue providing a sense of consistency in perspective and staffing in a big move, but even then I don’t see this staff (the longest continuously tenured unit) making sense in our new conference long term.
