I know it's jumping the gun a fair bit but I think it's worth having a conversation about. Which seniors on the current team do you think have the best chance to end up in the NFL next year?

I'm going with James Gray and Eric Keena.

I doubt anyone gets drafted.  Keena may have the best shot based on performance.  

James Gray and Chad Davis had very average years and their senior season won't impress any scouts. They are both hurt, so they will have time to heal, but they will need to impress at pro day.  It would not surprise me if they are healthy that they impress during pro day with their athleticism.  

Another sleeper may be Schilleci.  Many undrafted FAs are on the team for backup roles and to play special teams. Schilleci has become our all around special teams player over the years.  Before someone blows this off, Jamal Marshall was also one and he got a look.  If Schilleci looks good in drills and workouts, and he runs a low 4.5 40, he could get an invite to a rookie camp.

Yeah, Keena has the best shot of making a Roster. Gray and maybe Scott might be able to crack a practice squad but I hope for them they do better than that. Fred Scott is a smart kid and can make it with out the NFL. That kid is going places

Scott will have to get a lot faster.  He's strong, but he is going to have to show a lot more speed and quickness in the drills than he has in games.

      Finishing Out the '25 Class

      Thank you for this insightful recap Billy.

      Finishing Out the '25 Class

      1. I have us at about 80 scholarship players. This count does not include Makenzie McGill who we almost assuredly need to put on scholarship to keep, and Evan Jackson who deleted his transfer portal post and hasn’t posted anything since. Also does not include high school commit Terrence Lewis who still seems in line to sign in February. That being said, we probably could sign a few more HS guys this February. We have space and likely will have more space after spring to bring in more portal guys this summer if needed. 2. Probably will have a better idea on this after spring when we have a better idea of where we still are weaker than we want to be. We have pretty good numbers at each position. 3. There definitely will be more transfers after spring but pure speculation on who. Larry Moore appears to be passed over at tackle, and I doubt he wants to spend his last season of eligibility on the bench. Same for VJ Bronson at DT. At safety I don’t expect Isheem Young to come back but I could be wrong. He came here because of Caponi and we seem to have been recruiting that position as if he isn’t coming back. BJ Allen at safety looks like he is in danger of getting passed up by multiple guys so he could be better off looking elsewhere for more playing time. I think Zach Evans is similarly buried on the depth chart. I‘d be surprised if any of those 5 guys were still here after spring. Those are 5 spots I pretty much expect to open up just based on guys who are sort of the odd men out at their spots, but looks like they’ll be here through spring to have a chance to carve out bigger roles.

      SMU 's New Facility

      Many people on this board, constantly talk about competing with SMU. We should also pay attention to what TCU and other programs are doing, so we have a bar to set for ourselves. Ignoring the competition, gets us where we are now.
