Disappointing. I was hoping Vern would grow into a larger role the way did Keeshawn did his senior year. We certainly need size and strength with Zach graduating.
This may have nothing to do with NIL and everything to do with playing time. With the transfer rules being what they are now, players who want more playing time can jump into the portal, see what comes their way, and be playing for another school the next year. No more requirement to sit out a year. So coaches have to worry about their best players leaving and their mid-level players leaving if they don't get enough PT.
