Who needs to be cut for next year?

I am sure some guys will transfer out. I won't speculate on them. richt is gonna make this a more talented better balanced team with more depth but it will take time.

the best schools have depth and experience everywhere Miami lacks that. that's why u are gonna see 8-4 at best this year and probably lucky to hit 10 wins next year but come year 3 richts recruiting and coaching should fix most of those issues.

My thoughts:

Non-renewals (guys who will have a degree but have eligibility remaining):

1. Hunter Knighton (OL)

Encouraged to transfer:

1. Ryan Fines
2. Jahair Jones
3. Brendan Loftus
4. Hayden Mahoney
5. Terry McCray
6. Terrance Henley
7. Trayone Gray
8. Darrell Langham

Does anyone see any of these guys ever contributing?

I originally had Gus Edwards and Tyler Gauthier on my list, but clearly, the staff is trying to keep Gus in the fold and Gauthier has shown some potential the last two weeks.

Hunter Knighton literally almost died for this team. Take his name off the list he's earned his right to finish his career here how he chooses.


Potential Transfers due potentially being buried on the depth chart.
Rosier
Knowles
Perry
Ced Wright (discipline issues)

First, I'm not proposing we cut Knighton. I'm proposing that we don't renew him for a 5th year. The kid will already have his degree, so he's not being cheated out of anything.

Second, Ced Wright gets suspended for one game and now you're putting him on the list of potential transfers? GTFOH!!!
 
Gus is gone IMO. If he has any aspirations of showcasing his talents for the NFL, sharing a backfield with 2 other equally serviceable backs just doesn't seem like the way to go. Unless Richt can pull an Urban and convince him this is the still the best situation for him, He gone.

Showcase his talents??? NFL teams dont need a 230lb back running like a 180lb scat back who falls backwards more than he does forward when hit....

So you think Knighton only deserves 4 years here when he spent 1.5 recovering from near death? People transfer out all the time after discipline issues. And the safeties we're bringing in are better than him so ya i consider him a transfer candidate. Alot of people thought Ced was going to get dropped last January. How many "in the box" safeties do you think we need on the roster?
 
Bunch of soft participation award bird chests in here. LOL at keeping D2 level players here just because you think they try hard. Move them the fck out and replace them with much better players. Help them find a D2 spot, but get them the fck off my roster.

Slugs don't give you good looks on the scout team; great young talent gives you good looks on the scout team.

You can't just magically sign 35 new players to scholarship just because you are under the total genius.

Actually you can. We can apply 11 early enrollees to 2015 meaning we could technically sign 36. Soooo, ya.

Doesn't this really depend on the numbers of the previous class? Meaning, if we signed below the 28 limit last year (deadline for the recruit count I believe is in May) we can assign schollies to those empty slots if a recruit signs early. I believe Texas A&M signed 34 kind of recently. But if you look closer at those numbers, you see 28 assigned for one cycle, some backcounted towards in last year and of course, there will always be some grayshirts/non-qualifiers. So, in short, you can sign up to that many.

Hypothetically, we could sign 11 early enrollees, assuming what was posted is true.

But the likelihood of that actually happening, and actually happening with quality signees, doesn't seem very high to me. Especially considering the number of verbals we have now. Where are those 11 early enrollees going to come from?

So a "cut" list doesn't seem to be very logical, unless it has a small number. Because you would want to replace the "cut" players.

We signed 19 last year and 5 were EE's. Only 14 counted for 2016, leaving 11 EE spots open for 2017.

We've already got 10 kids in this class who are going to EE per Pete. https://www.canesinsight.com/thread/recruiting/106076

Holloman is an also an EE.

I've said all along 36 isn't a realistic number but i could see 30-31 being possible by the end of the summer if you factor grad transfers and juco.

So, either or. I don't keep up with recruiting so I'll take this as fact.

That would mean then 25 regular signees to add for a total of 36. How likely is that?

And you really think we can sign 36 Miami Caliber kids? No offense to the coaches recruiting, I find it hard to think we can find that many

I don't think anyone deserves any number of years. Scholarships aren't guaranteed, and the kids know it. If Miami is going to be competitive again, it's going to need to start doing what the other big time programs do, and that includes processing those kids who aren't good enough. I don't put Knighton in that camp. Miami has already done right by him by letting him stay and earn his degree. He should have been medically retired. Miami has no obligation and absolutely should not give him a 5th year.

No but i think they could find 30-31 with Juco and grad transfers.

Randy signed 32 in 2008. That class other than about 7 guys was a complete disaster.

Hang on. Our scholarship limitation was only lifted a month ago. Aren't we limited as to how many EEs we can get applied to 2016 as a result?
