We would still need to process a lot of guys even if they raise the 25 initial counter limit.
We are currently at 76 scholarship players (not counting the walk-ons who were awarded scholarships)
We only have 9 Seniors on the current roster.
That gives us only 9+9 = 18 open slots to 85 (as it currently stands)
There are 12 Redshirts Juniors who may choose or be asked to grad transfer or enter the NFL draft.
(Martell, Perry, Burns, Few, Gaynor, Hillery, Herbert, Jennings, Steed, Bolden, Phillips, Hedley)
We will probably lose 3-4 underclassmen to the NFL draft.
(Rousseau, Jordan, Davis, Wiggins, Pope, Scaife, Silvera, Ivey, Blades, Frierson, Hall)
Transfer Portal may open up a few slots as well.
A couple guys may retire due to injury or get dismissed.
The numbers always works itself out but signing a big class in 2021 will take away from the 2022 class.
