Rodney Harris visiting Oklahoma State.

Safe to say he will not be coming back.

Anyone confirm is Brune withdrew from portal? Not sure that would make any sense given the moves we made at RB unless he just wants to be a student. Could be bad info.

If he has, he hasn't posted it to X, like he did his entry, and like the retweets of three other departing Bobcats, including the most recent of Weatherspoon, who just entered.

I was about to post that myself. 247 says Brune withdrew, so he's back with us. Honestly, I'm happy he did.

Can someone provide better insight re: a ranking or segment our leaving players into categories e.g.,
1. Big Loss
2. Loss
3. Unfortunate
4. Whatever

e.g., my take, but could be very off

1.
Chase Hendricks (WR)�> California
Mason Williams (TE)�> Ohio State
Duncan Brune (RB)�> staying
Jalen Thomeson (S)�> San Diego State

1/2
Tim Carpenter (QB)�>
Jay Crable (DL)�>Florida Atlantic

2.
Rodney Harris (WR)�>
Davion Weatherspoon (OL)�>
Jordon Jones (OL)�>
Anas Luqman (DL)�>

2/3
Aidan Johnson (OL)�>Towson (FCS)
Ibrahim Kebe (OL)�>

3.
Nick Segarra (TE)�> Furman (FCS)
Matthew Papas (QB)�>
Matthew Dragich (WR)�>
Alfed Jordan Jr (WR)�>
Taliq Black (S)�>

4.

Any kickers being courted? Or is there a freshman or another roster member to handle the duties?
