But you’ll need to be in your seats by 1 pm to catch all the “seniors” running down the hill.

this can't be easy for him, granted it is a self made problem and I think he got a little generous with "other people's money", but would suck

I could be wrong but we carry more walk ons than the avg team, which I think reflects Dabo's heart for those kids.
He's having to tell several dozen players they either can't come back for a 5th year or can't come back all together. Next year roster limit is 108, we have almost 140 on team now

Old habits die hard. I wonder if we will see, going forward, a roster made up entirely of honest football players, or will we be punching a hole in the sheet rock when we see 5’7” 160 pound Jaxson Munson from Daniel High school on the roster as kicker #5?

scholarships we currently have. You think we're going to get stingy when we have 105 scholarships and can't fill them via the transfer portal?
Our talent level is about to go off a cliff. Next year is the last gasp (assuming no mass exodus) unless something major changes.

When a quarter of the roster is Dabo Swinney’s finishing school for wayward nepo one stars, it might be a nice gesture but it’s not football.

Watching the helicopter land on Bowman (I'm hoping!), honoring our men and women soldiers, 21 gun salute and the fallen soldier tribute at halftime (this is normally when I bring out my diced onions), the playing of our military songs, flyover, ...
I will be in my seat early but not that early 😎
