We project to have 9 players. That's pretty much a rotation. But, that's counting Muse and Bilic as solid contributors. Who knows? But, let's say all 9 are solid. We still need 4 bodies to fill out the roster. From what I've seen, the portal pool is drying up. A majority of the portalers have committed.
And, a lot of the remaining players are seniors. To me, I'd like to see us get players that are not on their last season of eligibility.
Next season, we only project to return Gabby, Bilic, Muse, and Sienna. That's 9 players we have to find for next season that are not here. Maybe more depending on roster limitation changes. Some will be incoming Freshmen. But, that's a lot of players that you have to replace.
But, no matter how much eligibility they have, we need 4 players for next season and the pool is drying up.
