Is there another portal opening before the season starts?

I don’t believe so. The only caveat is that graduate players can enter at anytime.

Of the other 2 visits - Reno remains uncommitted. Pringle committed to Syracuse. We are down to the final open roster spots depending on how the House settlement goes. You can go over the proposed 105 limit, but if they enforce it for this season you would be required to cut players after fall camp. Most schools are trying to get to the 105 limit now to avoid that scenario.

If I had to guess, OL will still be a need. The SC graduate transfer, Jakai Moore, makes logical sense who has starting experience. OL is highly valued everywhere though.

DT. Need two more minimum and pray we don't lose anyone to injury. Three more would be even better but that's a reach right now. Moving to a four man front means we have to stock up to balance the line.

Odds we move an offensive lineman over?

Don’t believe we have enough room for 2 without further attrition or clarity on the roster limit. We have 10 who can play DT right now.

Maybe with time but, if my memory is correct today, we have four with some level of college experience, three of them transfers we haven't worked yet, one RS Freshman, and one true Freshman. I know the roster numbers don't work unless we're going more than 85, or, as you said, we have some attrition, but we're a bit thin on current DT's running a four man front. That being said I feel our staff will have a good lineup ready come the end of August.

That's always a possibility. Many of these guys played both ways at some point so they at least know the position. I'm not too worried yet but if we get any injuries that might change. Razors Edge but many teams have those at a position or two. Just one of those things that makes loving football (or other sports) so much fun. :D
