WARNING! DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING I POST TOO SERIOUSLY!

The NCAA COVID rulings basically granted players 6 years to play 4, except for seniors that were given an extra year to audition for the NFL. So even though the super seniors and seniors will graduate, ASU will have sort of a double freshmen class to work through the roster. Why is this important? Because the NCAA never relaxed the 85 max scholarship regulation. So teams with big recruiting classes and small graduation classes may not be able to use all of their 25 annual scholarship allotment. ASU is not in bad a shape. At least 26 players will graduate or transfer.

Leaving players - 26

Grads = 24

Transfer Portal = 2 so far
Cam Philips
Geordon Porter

The team had a couple very good pre-COVID recruiting classes and Edwards has been able to retain most - so far. See the list below. The team has played a lot of young guys so we have plenty of young experienced players coming back. But recruiting and transfer portal will need to focus on the DL bigs and LBs. Those positions lose almost all their starters. Scott, West and Henderson will be the nucleus of next year's O-line. Glass will probably move into one tackle spot. There are some good looking candidates for the vacated RG position. Henderson has played some great football now that he is back on the left side. I would like to see Henderson move to LT, Glass to RT and Scott take an open guard position with Lovell at the other. That would be a pretty good O-line. What is Daniels going to do? I think this year has soured his chance for the NFL draft, but he may consider the transfer portal to go where he can get more exposure and/or better coaching.
