He'll be one of probably 3 to 5 more before next fall. Curious why he waited until now, a lot these schools have filled their spots. Going to Ga Tech is not a bad option for him, but he'd likely get more PT at a 1AA school.

Also, this will make Law happy!

How many have we lost so far 3? Green, Johnson and McCoy?

Didn’t he come in as a safety? Best wishes to him wherever he goes.
Yes. Put on 30 lbs or so (the good kind) to play LB. I agree with the poster who said probably not P-5 material, but I appreciate that he clearly worked hard and looked like he gave it his all on the field. Good luck and godspeed Kylan.

I hope it’s more than 3.

Yes, I think that's it. I look at a few candidates; Rayshad Jackson, Brunson, McWilliams, and possibly Trask.

I doubt Trask goes anywhere this season . He would probably only move on to a smaller school as a grad transfer.

He's been good for us and he probably can play P5 somewhere, maybe. But, not consistently against the kind of competition we'll be playing to get where we need to be.

He and McCoy are kind of in the same boat. Two guys who worked hard and were serviceable, but are not fitting in with what the new coaching staff does.

He managed to pay attention to the play and stay in his assigned gap. Solid tackler. Probably our best LB cover guy.

But he isn't a blitz specialist.

I can see why Grantham had no use for him.

I liked him as a player. He worked hard, didn’t get caught up in any credit card or frying pan nonsense and probably maxed out his abilities here. If Mac continued his piss poor recruiting at the LB position, kylan may have been a starter this year but Dan has upgraded the talent to the degree there probably isn’t much of a way on to the field. I wish the kid nothing but blessings
