Just scanning through the roster. I appears updated with graduating/transferring players.

Luke Shiflett now listed as a QB.
It looks like a lot of the true seniors are going to play in the fall - Wynn, Clay, Stokes, Lawrence, Deluca, McKoy
As of right now, the team has only 6 seniors.

Josh Agbenou has entered the transfer portal. Hope he is the last.

Entering this late he may not find a spot. Most teams are set now. Might have to walk on.

And only 6 Jr’s. How did that happen, only 12 Jrs/Srs.

With Hope, McKoy, and Clark at Bandit, playing time may have been getting increasingly limited.

Working theory -

Looking at the 2019 roster, the "sophomore" class (I guess, now Juniors) has seen a bit of transition. A few players in that class were granted redshirts - Dejuan Bell, Luke Shiflett, who are listed as sophomores.

That class has also seen a few players leave the program - Corey Watkins, Taylor Hodge, Carson Maples

On the "thank you seniors" photo - I also see a few other guys from that class: Jack Hardin, Ben Page and Ross Detamore

.....and our defense has only one second teamer. I don’t put much stock in these types of lists.

Maybe - I'm just going out on a limb here - you could congratulate those that received a selection?

While you probably never noticed, you could pretty easily see that Tomlin was a force out there.

It’s a team game.

pre-season this (Bandit) was the very position I noted we had too many guys (McKoy, Hope, Agbenou - and that was with McKoy hurt!)... and too few guys at other positions. It is part art and part science (recruiting is) - but we must do a better job going forward of having a little depth at each position.

I don’t keep up enough to notice when certain players leave. What happened to Corey Watkins and Carson Maples?

Not sure that was ever publicly reported, but neither was on the roster this spring.

Didn't Maples have injury/health issues?
