Just saw the ESPN top 100 newcomers list and I scroll thruogh it looking for our guys and I cannot help but think back to the 1995 team when we had a bunch of kids who went through two-a-days in the August heat without any of this portal nonsense. I counted maybe a handful of names that will actually be on the field for us come September and half of them might be gone by winter. Coach Goff would have never tolerated this. You had to earn your spot in the old days and you stayed because you wanted to be a Bulldog not because somebody offered you a better deal. The toughness we built in those practices is gone now. Kids show up for spring ball and if they aren't starting by the third week they are already on the phone with their handlers. NIL killed the whole concept of grinding through a depth chart.
