Still plenty of opportunities for others to come through
Terry and Bowers from last year didn't announce until March 29th and March 3rd, respectively. So there could still be movement. By my count (I could be off 1 or 2) we are sitting at 83 scholarships.

I'm sure a lot of movement is still to come. For all the holes unaddressed in the recruitment process (from HS or JC), and all the holes created by kids leaving. We still have yet to find out where McKie is going. So I'm guessing the same can be said in reverse.

You've had multiple intelligent, on topic replies. You haven't said a word about them.

For clarification I was alluding to incoming players for the ' 20 season

And the point myself and others were making is that this 2020 class already has 40 guys in it, with a possible 8 more arriving in the fall and there aren't an unlimited number of scholarships. Also, it is still earlier in the offseason than other previous transfers have come in. So saying that "they didn't get a single d-1 transfer" is potentially incorrect because we don't know what will happen in the following weeks/months. Besides its a trivial point considering what they are bringing in from hs & juco. Why does it have to be from a transfer? Talent is talent. Do Alabama and Clemson go to the playoff every year because they own the transfer market? Was the NIU Orange Bowl team full of transfers? Or were they all recruited and developed? (For clarification I know the answer the ?s are rhetorical)

Yeah man. Stop being negative about everything NIU Football and fighting everyone on it. There's always going to be critics on whatever we do, and you'll never get everyone to agree with you and that's okay.
Yes, I will agree this past year sucked for football. But Hammock and Co are working to change our future, and they seem to have done a great job at it. We got a great QB coming in with a explosive HB, as well as some big boys for the line coming in from Wisc.
I am thankful for all that Carey did to keep the torch burning. But regardless of what we think of him, he's gone and he's never coming back. We had no choice in keeping him, so we can't keep wondering what he would have done if he were still here. Hammock is our guy till he isn't. And I am hoping he gets us back to being competitive in the MAC.

RE: Haney entered the transfer portal
Agreed bro, about the potential regarding the qb, and rb..but regardless of the coach, you can't cash a check based on potential. Not trying to be negative, however, except for the aforementioned " potential" of two players..what positives over the past 14 months can you qualify...regarding the coach... Please expound on my question rather then dubbing me as being negative..I dont see the optimism you do

Go read the 4 threads on the 2020 and 2021 recruiting class. That's everything you could possibly want to know about why people believe things are going in the right direction.

There are plenty of reasons to be pessimistic if we look hard enough (The offense was unwatchable last year; The team showed up unready to play on at least two occasions (Nebraska, CMU)) etc, but I choose to be optimistic for the future, it's as simple as that. There are many reasons to be optimistic. Try it, it feels much better.
