The 2026 NFL Draft is happening right now and all I hear is people talking about which programs lost the most talent to the league. Meanwhile we are sitting here with a roster that just landed Kaiden Prothro in the 2026 class and people still. That is laughable. We reload. That is what we do. Every single year the narrative shifts and every single year we prove them worng. Look at what we are building in Athens right now. The 2027 class is sitting right where it belongs in those ESPN rankings and the talent pipeline does not stop. The portal losses people keep obsessing over are just noise. We know what we have in this program. Kirby has this thing humming like a well oiled machine and nobody outside of this fanbase wants to admit it. Oregon has five five-stars in their 2026 class and everyone wants to crown them already. Texas loaded up with Dia Bell and people act like that title is already theirs. I have seen this movie before. Recruiting rankings are great for offseason hype but they do not win you games in November lmao. We have the culture. We have the development. We have the track record. The spring portal window being eliminated is going to shake things up across the country but for us it just. Alabama is scrambling to fix their O-line through the portal. Ohio State is replacing six defensive starters. Colorado brought in 43 transfers and people still cannot decide if that is genius or desperation. Meanwhile we just keep doing what we do. Voluntary workouts in June. That is where championships are built. Not in December when the transfer portal opens. Not in February when signing day happens. Right here in the summer heat when nobody is watching.
