Andrew Mike is still around??? How old is he, 37?
He is. I think he could be gone though at the end of this spring semester. I have a few guys listed as redshirt juniors, meaning they will be redshirt seniors next season. You get five years to play four. These guys redshirted as freshmen, so they are technically finishing their senior year in May. This would be like what we did with Cam Dillard last year.
TE Moral Stephens
OL Andrew Mike
OL Kavaris Harkless
The only problem with this is that these guys aren't going to effect the 85 limit we are trying to stay under on signing day next month.
Transfer risks:
QB Jake Allen- not a fit for spread
WR Rick Wells- credit card fraud, airsoft gun incident, hasn't played a down yet
OL Nick Buchanan- has played in one game and actually didn't play bad (FSU last year) but he's going to be in the same category with Stephens, Mike, and Harkless this time next year
DT Luke Ancrum- same category as Buchanan, but has had much more playing time than Buchanan. Still a non-contributor
DT Richerd Desir-Jones- see Buchanan but has not played a down here. Credit card fraud
DE Keivonnis Davis- will be a redshirt junior, didn't play a down this past year because of that car wreck. I think he'll get a medical hardship and not be counted against the 85 limit. Part of the credit card fraud too
LB Lacedrick Brunson- played sparingly behind walk on linebackers as a freshman. Also didn't have other freshmen to go against and still didn't get playing time (Smith was injured, Houston/Miller were credit card fraud)
LB Ventrell Miller- credit card fraud, can't remember if it was him or James Houston who got the weed charge with James Robinson last summer
LB James Houston- see Miller
CB McArthur Burnett- look at every guy UF is offering at DB. 6'0 and taller. Most of them are 6'2 or 6'3. Burnett is listed at 5'7. Played special teams and got passed up by our freshmen almost immediately this past year. Couldn't get playing time at DB when we were riddled with injuries the past two years.
CB CJ McWilliams- I think he has a great shot to stay because he got some playing time last year and at times he had rave reviews in the spring. Needs to stay healthy or he'll get passed up by our incoming freshmen too
S Quincy Lenton- see McWilliams
All of the guys above could benefit from the new staff, but I expect a good amount of transfers that will help us with our class size in 2019 (only counting 11 seniors next year at the moment).
