Plundering the Portal

[Aclone]

First one I’ve seen. 6’9” OT from Princeton and Minneapolis. Looks like grad transfer.

Not sure how good he is on the field, but off the field this kid is amazing! I hope we land him.

That’s two offers to guys with 1 year of eligibility left. Looks like we’re going to try to make a run next year.

The portal isn’t open to non-grad transfers until December 4, so any offers (that we actually hear about) prior to then will likely be 1-year guys. I’d expect that to change soon enough.

Dude is a mauler. Will be a senior this year, but trying to get a medical redshirt because he was out for the majority of last year. Feels like a guy that has 1st round upside after being under Clanton’s tutelage. Nice to see us trying to bring in some OL!

He’s pretty damn good on the field too. Feels like IF we can get him here, he’s another first round pick for Clanton’s coaching resume

Yes, I knew that. And?

Why wouldn’t we? So few holes to fill.

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Was just sharing for other people who see this thread so that they don't get their hopes up.

You’re right, I probably did. Bad night, coffee is brewing.

Hope we get him. Traditionally, getting OL in the portal is one of the harder positions because almost everyone wants them and there generally speaking is not enough quality for everyone to get them.

Looks like he'd be a good get . Though interesting since both tackles are scheduled to return. Losing Hufford hurts. Dude really came on IMO this year. He was always better at guard than tackle but this year I think really started coming into his own

I thought we were losing a tackle

LG Jarrod Hufford. But I could see James Neal maybe moving to guard if he got beat out at tackle.

 

[stewart092284]

I thought we were losing a tackle

I don't think so?

Miller's listed as a junior
Neal's a redshirt sophomore
Remsburg is graduating - listed as a senior
Treiber- redshirt senior


So the depth pieces are gone but in terms of starting Hufford's the only scheduled departure

Not only would he be nice to have on the field but a great student. The Star Tribune just ran a story on him recently:

6-9 and growing: Former DeLaSalle star Jalen Travis will go to the NFL — or do something more impactful

Football Across Minnesota: From Minneapolis to the Ivy League to a next big step yet to be determined, offensive tackle Jalen Travis is adding to his family's successes in sports and other pursuits.
