You got it wrong with losing 8 at the end of the season. First only 5 seniors start on offense and one (tucker injured) has been replace. Btw, tucker is the 3rd reciever to be lost for the season. Every receiver that is playing right now were either backups or going to redshirt. Tucker may be back at the end of the season and the other 2 (Daniels and Taylor) will be back to start next season. Teel most likely will be a backup once Natale becomes eligible at transferring. The defense has 4 senior starters (2 d-linemen & 2 LBs), but RU has a heavy rotation on the d-line. The one outside backer may lose his spot to a true freshman years end. Overall, RU has 8 seniors in the 2 deep on offense and 7 seniors on 2 deep on defense and 1 punter. RU has 19 seniors this year.
