Wanted to create a thread to keep a tally on portal entrants ahead of the Portal officially opening on April 16.

Just some names that have entered that either had Texas ties previously, or would make sense given what we know about the ensuing hunt in the portal to fill the 2025 roster.

Right down the road in San Marcos. Former All-Sun Belt selection.

It will be interesting to see how this works out. We have two kickers on scholarship, but will obviously be in the market for one. Maybe we'll trade kickers with Texas State.

The former Boise State DL Braxton Fely has the production (14 solo tackles, 5.5 sacks) but don't know if Texas would be interested because his size listed at 6'1 296lbs

That would be the red flag for me. Texas has only targeted guys that are 6'4+ this cycle. Lole last year was the shortest DL at 6'3"

We will see in about six days! There are 4-6 I have circled as possibilities.

It's classy that you don't publish those names until it actually happens.

Side question - What percentage of the time are you right about Texas portal entries?

Just typing out loud... 2 TEs, 1 WR, 1 DT, 1 kicker. I suppose if an all-conference type RT were to fall into our laps we'd take that. We'd also take a Keilan Robinson clone at RB. That's seven.

I could see 2 WR before 2 TE.

This would have been the perfect year for a Silas Bolden-type add at the WR room (plus a vet). A guy who can double in the return game as well while giving you 5-15 snaps per game depending on situation.

I doubt they take than 2 portal players at any position, even the positions they need the most.

CJ

who's on exodus watch? 

 

THATS THE REAL QUESTION

Expand  

Not CJ but the short list will probably be something like this:

Malik Agbo
Connor Stroh
Jaydon Chatman
Connor Robertson(if Cruz passes him up for center)
Aaron Butler
Maybe one of the kickers or punters, since we have 4 on scholarship(not that numbers matter considering we're under 85).

Yeah, this list sounds about spot on.

Are we looking at about 8 additions? We're -4 now on scholarships, and another 4 or so would be expected to portal out.

We could be under and give out some scholarships for the year to walk ons!
