Thanks for the feedback, all.
1) Did not know Yamauchi was LDS. I would have had I paid more attention. I'll remove his name.
2) Also did not realize that they were moving Mitch Leigber back to S. Will make adjustment.
3) Had completely forgotten about Anson Pulsipher! Glad for his return.
4) I had read somewhere that Ethan Bonner was returning, and I had simply made an assumption regarding Jay Symonds and Spencer Jorgensen. But I could be wrong about all three. Since Jorgensen is only a 5th year, and Bonner and Symonds are starters, I'll leave them on the grid until we have confirmation of any of them staying or going.
5) I'll also wait to hear if Kenji Swanson has retired or if Caleb Ellis has switched positions. (BTW, that guy certainly has fallen out of favor. Played a lot as a true freshman.)
6) Regarding prospective starters, I only posted Logan Berzins as a starter at center because he is the only returning center that we have that has played significant minutes. But he is a walk-on, so I would not be surprised if he is supplanted by a transfer or position switch. Anyway, I'll remove starter status until we find out.
7) Also regarding prospective starters, both Alaka'i Gilman and Omari Porter were starting at the end of last season, so I left them listed as starters. Granted, they were only starting because of a bevy of injuries, but I really wonder who would start in front of them barring a position switch. Jimmy Wyrick and Jaden Slocumb did not play a lot last season relative to their freshman year. Perhaps Scotty Edwards, who did play a lot last year? Leigber? We'll see, but I'll leave them listed as starters for now. Their positions to lose! :)
8) It is strange that freshman defensive back recruits were only listed as "defensive backs," so I basically slotted them where they had played in high school or were listed by recruiting services, which is why I listed Kenji Ojarikre at safety. (Interestingly, all offensive linemen were also listed in this way, so I had to make some judgment calls.) But I grant that he could absolutely end up a CB. I hope he doesn't, because we are trending toward the same dearth of safeties that has plagued us in recent years.
9) Did not know about Duke Reeder! Good for him to find some PT somewhere in some sport. Odd to leave before he finished his degree (unless he finished early).
10) I totally knew Babyface McGee was a walk-on! Not sure why I did not put his name in italics. Will correct.
And, yes, we got totally decimated by the transfer portal!
