I made a list after the Iowa game from Huskers.com. I took out a lot of walk-ons and others I thought wouldn't survive. I then removed the guys showing up in this thread. Of course, I added the guys from the 2025 signing class. I'm at 105 but I'm sure it will change.

My suspicion is that Tony wants at least a few guys who know the defense he's going to have to teach to a whole new set of players. According to Jay Moore, edge guys are probably the ones who will have the toughest time adjusting.
Or any other position of need we are short on.this is a huge hire going forward.it almost seems like seeing some Cortez Mills tweets this was in the works before signing day.
Fk Pot roast. He wouldn’t have a job at this level if not for Matt Rhule.
I count only about 15 guys who are going to be seniors and a few of them look like potential cuts to me. Super young roster. I can find 10-11 guys who will probably be processed and Rhule said they want to take 14-15 transfers.
His love affair with Evan Cooper was odd but TW needs him to help teach his D to the D line. Really surprised he ditched Rhule like that but Rhule might not be all that disappointed. Mr Roast wasn't exactly killing it in recruiting.

Not all that odd. Pot roast probably gets the scraps that Cooper doesn't want.
Good catch. I think I removed him thinking the potential "family" issues were more than they were.
