    Jerry Johnson has now entered the portal for ATM. Fisher brought him in last summer as a transfer from Rice to play back-up fullback. He never played. His dad was an assistant S&C coach at ATM until The Elk showed up and laid waste to that organization. Johnson's younger brother is Chantz Johnson, an LB they brought in for that amazing 2023 class. To my knowledge, he never sees the field either. They're now at 85 players for the fall if they do not lose any other guys (including Chantz) and do not add any additional portal players. 

    The Elk is being praised on their board for cleaning out dead transfer portal weight from the Fisher regime. As this praise is heaped on, the entire poster base ignores or fails to grasp the similar mediocrity of The Elk's portal work as well.

    They'll be adding/subtracting

    I hope Sark’s sit downs with players aren’t too specific and definitive. Shit happens all the time and telling a third string or second string guy he’s going be that isn’t an ideal approach. I assume most of these portal guys just see the writing on the wall and aren’t being over influenced by bad news in a sit down. There’s honesty and integrity, but then there’s also too much information. I hope it’s not the latter. 

    There's a "dude we've got X amount of NIL dollars, and we're not going to spend them on you" come to Jesus moment for all of the backups.

    Carter Karels with the paradoxical position:

    Carter Karels

    "The Bryce Foster conversation has always been a little uncomfortable. He had so much promise early, but he did not show enough commitment to football and fell off a cliff as a player. I don't see him being good anywhere else, unless he goes the Group of Five route/completely changes his mindset. Anyway, think we need to move on and give him a little grace. Sometimes, things just don't work out."

    Strong work. I don't know if Karels is actually an aggie, but he disguises well as one if he isn't.

    Oh he is: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carter-karels-7a0536135/
