Are these folks leaving of their own volition or is this somewhat akin to
an implied general house cleaning?

Was A guy that I thought the new staff would be able to utilize but we’ll be alright. We could put 1 if our 30 WRs at DT and get the same production

As I've been saying, where are the linemen? I know, I know, many have you have wondered why I repeat myself. Some are leaving for various reasons and some have not committed from either high school or through the Portal. Bottom line is we need the Big Boys NOW! on both side of the line if we are to be competitive NOW! The portal is very important this year.

We were very bad this year and have gotten waaay behind in talent (especially DL and LB)... I feel it's going to take some time. Be patient. Hope I am wrong and we make a bowl next year but gonna be tough.
If you are an elite OL or DL, why would you come to TCU? More important, why come to FW when UT & ATM have a lucrative NIL put in place for them?

To play for TCU and play soon, a college degree, live in Fort Worth for at least a short time, have connections to resources including NIL that are available here as well!! Just saying.
What's better than that if you truly love TCU? Go Frogs!
That is what they tell them in Austin, College Station, Norman, etc.

That is there choice to believe or not believe like everyone has. To play, live, get educated, have lifelong friends and business associates. So your point is those other schools, campuses, cities are better? If that your point just say it. I don't believe that for a second so get to your point!. If you think TCU and Fort Worth is second to them, say it! You won't hurt my feelings either way.

I agree with the premise... but these highly recruited "high star" athletes don't care about education and business associates. It's all about getting to the league, taking care of family (or hangers-on, and now NIL), which many won't sniff. It's completely changed. These are not those early and mid- Patterson years... which is why he couldn't adapt. I personally don't like it, but it is what it is.
We went small and quick just in time for most to go back to smash mouth. Normally a couple recruiting cycles to fix that. Now, with the portal… Sonny, do your thaaang.
