Someone should tell these portal targets that if they aren’t Randy Moss in the first quarter of the first game, half the fan base will accuse them of rot.

Regarding the OL.
We have been waiting for the step forward for 20 years. I am going to assume it never happens. We need creative play calling to minimize the need for a good OL.
Not a portal transfer. But Hufford coming back next season!
Only a positive because it gives Clayton's guys a year to develop.

So the entire line is intact. That makes Easton Dean the only offensive player to not return? (Outside of the 2 RB transfers)
Don't think that is a good thing
I get where you're coming from... but disagree. Which would you rather have everyone return or guys leave and force others to step up before they're ready?
This could easily be like Sean Foster deal where he comes back but doesn't play. I have faith in Clanton to pick the best 5. I also suspect that Hufford will be one of the top 5.
I think our guys are big enough and strong enough. I think they lack quickness. Not sure how coachable that is. The freak athletes in football are the edge guys. Big, strong, fast and quick. They get high draft picks and big $. Takes quick feet to get in their way. I like Clanton. Certainly hope he has success - I think he is good. I think our problem is recruiting more than coaching.
Maybe have our linemen practice running on a bed of coals, I know that would make me quicker.
Ho
What if they're Donald Driver on the first play?
They’ll say it wasn’t good enough and we could have had moss if we weren’t paying our coach 4 million dollars. Literally one brain cell exists between all these rot folks, and I swear that they all share it
Bryson Rodgers, Jayden Higgens and Jaylin Noel would be one hell of a starting 3. Beni Ngoyi would be one a hell of a #4. Add in Brahmer. Who in the Big12 could match that cast of targets?
Yes, yes, I know, we still need an improved OLine.
This would be an insane receiving corps. And if you get tired of throwing it, hand it to future All American Abu Sama. Looking forward to seeing the strides the OL makes under year 2 with Clanton
FWIW, ventured over to the tOSU message boards. According to them, Rodgers to ISU is a done deal, and there’s been talk of it for weeks. Can’t verify that, however a source close to the ISU program says it’s very likely. Fingers crossed!
Blake Thompson to the portal per 247.

Blake Thompson - Football - Iowa State University Athletics
Blake Thompson (22) Defensive Back - 2023 Played in six games, making one start ... had 11 tackles and two pass breakups ... recorded six tackles in his first
The other part of the equation is Reid Kagy and his staff. After seeing the athleticism and physicality of guys on the field, they should have a better plan to address individual player improvement needs this off-season.
Just saw this. Interesting, obviously looking to add more pass rushers
