Here are some of the notable transfers we've secured so far to my knowledge:

Ron Tatum, DE/DL - Oklahoma, NE Ok St 6'5" 265 - 4 star #2 Strong side DE nationally (HS) 2019
Billy "BJ" Ferrell DT/DL - 6'3" 290 - Arkansas, NE Ok St - 4 star #28 DT nationally (HS) 2018
Kybo Jamerson - OLB/DE - UAB, Lamar - 6'2" 215 - 3 star
Andrew Sanders OT/RT - 6'4" 300 - Fullerton College CA (JUCO) unranked
Jason Kerl Jr - CB 5'11" 175 - North Texas (commit) Mission Viejo CA (JUCO) 3 star (HS)
Asa Osbourn - RB 5'11" 205 - Oklahoma State (PWO) Navarro JUCO - Unranked
Trai Gardner - WR 6'0" 185 - Trinity Valley JUCO - 3 star 2016

The DLINE should clearly be stacked which I think gives us a chance to get back to the type of defense we're used to. 3 BIG TIME D1 transfers and we already have Dylan Botts and Patteson at DT coming back.

If anyone has anyone I missed to add feel free. Go Cru.

Also added former Austin LBJ dual threat QB Oscar Gordon III 6'2" 205 from Texas Southern

with all these JUCO and 6-7th year seniors coming in, I sure hope that the team GPA doesn't drop below 2.78

And the dough boy returns to troll again.  Did you get tired of playing with your barbie dolls again?  lol

This site really does need an "Ignore" feature so the adults can discuss football without being interrupted by toddlers looking for attention.

Awesome!  Thanks Etchglow!

The season is only a couple weeks away and I'm still trying to figure out who Westgate is.  They have now joined a conference, https://newsouthconference.com/, but their webpage is on,y slightly better than WCU webpage.  It also doesn't say what level they are playing.  I'm getting the bad feeling this game will be worse than playing a small high schools JV team.  I saw this when we played Arkansas Baptist a couple years ago, and they are NAIA.  I may tuen into this game just to see the carnage.

an extra opponent for UMHB, nice

[Etchglow]

Updated the roster spreadsheet for 2024.  Only HSU and ETBU have 2024 rosters posted and either they're not done or they're in more trouble than we thought (Only 12 and 11 freshmen respectively).  HSU lost 42 underclassmen and ETBU lost 27.  I know several of the ETBU ones transferred to UMHB.  All of the "New" players at HSU have previously played for them but not last year.

The address for the HQ for the NSAC is in NC. The sign out front lists 4 radio and television stations and the surrounding area is covered with satellite dishes. Heck if I know what this means (television contracts! hahahahaha!)

Apprentice School won the NSAC baseball title, then went on to the USCAA tournament.
Virginia Union is listed as a member and they are DII. VSU does not mention the NSAC at all on their web page.

[Gray Fox]

The NSAC

Formed in 2020, the New South Athletic Conference consists of small colleges and universities in the Southeast. We sanction championships in men's and women's basketball, volleyball, baseball, and men's soccer. More sports are planned for the future.

[Ron Boerger]

I wonder if the FAFSA disaster and the resulting difficulties in making financial aid available had an impact on rosters.
