Same here. The only one that really "hurts" is Kumah


I'm just a little surprised Kumah is transferring, given the big numbers he put up last season. But it could mean that Fuente was just dead honest with him: we have a TON of talent coming in at WR (including guys like Darryl Simmons who didn't play much last year, plus true FRs like Elijah Bowick, Jacoby Pinckney, Jaden Payoute, and Tayvion Robinson), and there just aren't going to be as many targets to Kumah. He's a physical guy who wins jump balls on the fade route, but isn't super fast and doesn't run great routes.

Josh Jackson -- again, being honest, he probably wasn't going to beat out Ryan Willis in the spring, and may even have fallen to 3rd string behind Quincy.

McClease -- more a scat-back type and never an every-down player. Writing is on the wall with big-time back Keshawn King about to arrive. Between King, Jalen Holston, and Terian Wheatley, we're OK in the backfield.

The more I think about this, the more I believe we're about to come out ahead, despite the transfers. And we now have room to bring a couple transfers in, hopefully another couple DTs or a DE. That's where we actually need the help this upcoming season.
