Just FYI, Eddie Kelly signed with Georgia Tech.

It blows my mind how many guys transfered out signed with P 5 schools.    Jeff Scott is even worse of a coach then I thought

Definitely surpassed Skip and Charlie.  It's tough because they both left things in shambles but so did Scott (and never won).

Grier -> Arkansas

Horn -> Colorado

Shrader -> Notre Dame

Long -> Georgia Tech

Mangham -> Michigan State

Weaver -> Colorado

Hall -> Duke

Battie -> Auburn

Kelly -> Georgia Tech

You're spot on, a team with that much talent and a good QB to go along with it shouldn't be going 1-11. This is one of the big reasons I'm optimistic for Golesh. I think we had the talent to make a bowl game on the roster last season, Jeff Scott was just ******* clueless with game prep, game management, situational football, etc.

90% of the games in his tenure felt like we'd come out totally unprepared and go down 2-3 scores immediately. Then the players would keep fighting and give us reason for optimism, until the same exact thing happened the next week.

Maybe he can donate to the stadium fund and we can put in a “bone rollercoaster” to compete with the c clowns’ lazy river.

Disappointing Coach Golesh wasn't able to hold on to more of these players.

We are seeing a similar thing in basketball where we have lost our best remaining players.

You haven't seen this type of turnover with most teams that have a new coach.

Recruiting so far has been subpar. Especially recruiting in basketball has been disappointing so far. The hope is that the new coaches are just better then the previous ones, and are able to do more with less.

I do still think at least for football there is still enough talent on the roster to be competitive in the AAC.

agree completely. scott was a terrible coach but decent recruiter.

He seemed to panic in big situations. never had the team prepared. only took risks offensively when we were down 3 scores by the end of the first quarter.he coached scared.

Golesh seems to have a confidence about him.

there's always turnover in college. constantly rebuilding rosters. QB is most important and I think we should be ok there.shouldn't be tough to find skill position players in this state

the only hoops player that will be missed is Harris and he was gone regardless.

Some turnover is to be expected, but very few cases where you lose the amount of good players we did.  For example, FAU didn't have this type of turnover when Herman came in.

They just got a huge commit from Casy Thompson, starting Nebraska QB last year (2400 yards 17 td 10 int),

For basketball we had some decent players left, but besides Miguel they are all gone and have been replaced with  mostly Asun and juco talent. We haven't bee able to pick up one player in basketball from a Power team.

I feel the roster for both football and basketball is worse today then it was last season.

The hope is that the coaching will be better so that we will see some improvement.
