Notes
DC Coleman Hutzler fired after 2 seasons
Run Def is awful. 300+ to Mizzu. Rebs will run wild
Now 1-12 vs P4 teams since start of '24
RT Albert Reese IV inj vs Tenn, ? for A&M
Hot start, huge W vs ASU. Shapen looks sharp so far
Starting DE Will Whitson out for season, big
Shapen good, Run Off better, Def better
WR huge ? Top 6 are portals? 4 best LY left
Added 5 portal OL post spring. Bad sign?
Talent #'s of a mid B12 team, and dropping
