How Many of Rhule's Bear-Owls make the final 53?

There are ten of them: seven Temple and three Baylor.  Anderson, Ioannidis and Roy are locks.  The rest are bubble guys or outright cuts.  They are: Tecklenburg, Barnes, Chandler, Frankllin, Kirkwood, Thompson and Walker.

I don't think Rhule will allow all of the fringe guys to be cut even though they probably should.  It's a security blanket with his Bear-Owls surrounding him.

I'll set the total number (including the three locks) at over/under 6.5 to make the final 53 man roster.

Franklin, chandler and Barnes belong on the football team. I don’t care what college they went to. Franklin is probably our best special teams player now that Luvu has moved into the starting lineup. Chandler is solid depth at. Fs and SS. Barnes has potential and would get snagged if he went to the practice squad.

I like Robinson over Chandler and we aren't keeping six safeties.  Hartsfield will take a safety spot.  Who is Barnes supplanting to be CB #5?  Taylor?  STO?  I don't see him sticking over both of those guys.  Let me rephrase, shouldn't stick over both of those guys.

Yea it’s definitely a tough decision. I think the safety spot comes down to Franklin or Robinson. I think Burris might be the odd man out for the other safety spot and that willl allow both hartsfield and chandler. Barnes … to keep him, it would involve a tough decision. I just think he would get picked up off of the practice squad on speed alone. I also wouldn’t be surprised if we go 2 qbs and 6 cbs.

I don't think we keep 11 DBs.  Plus, even if we do only keep two QBs, I think the extra spot goes to a WR.  The guys on the bubble at WR have more potential impact for the team than an extra corner.

    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips. 
    • I mean there is relevance to that. But I think much of it has to do with the fact that he is clearly likeable. But does that translate to a coach taking his position to the next level like those that have had staying power for many years like Spoelstra? And not for nothing but does how much someone is liked even matter? Across leagues with the Panthers Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney were universally well liked by players. Dave Canales is very well liked. I say you are what your record says. And the record says you got your ass handed to you by a fellow expansion team in the Magic in a game that was over at halftime and that same team went toe to toe with our nemesis who has been handing us L's for over a year now. And if Bam doesn't get his leg swept by LaMelo do we even get past the Heat? Again. It just all boils down to personal standards. I think newer and younger fans will love this. I just want to actually win a real playoff game fam 🤷‍♂️
