Coming into the season, the narrative was the Ducks were so deep that they would be rotating players in and out like crazy, keeping everybody fresh. For the most part, it has been the complete opposite. This has been one of the tightest rotation of players that I can remember. If not for a few injuries/suspension that forced the hand of the coaches, it would seem even tighter.ducks5ever wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2024 8:02 pm Are all the class of 2024 recruits redshirting? I thought Flowers or someone at any of the 3 levels would at least contribute some. That was a talented class, especially on the DL.

Re: Redshirts?
That's actual speculation, all I did was take the next man up approach for who is on our roster.Everythingsducky wrote: Wed Nov 20, 2024 10:15 pm Cool to speculate, but in today’s landscape, Lanning could bring in any number of portal dudes, and we could lose some of these guys as well. Free agency is obviously real. I hope we retain a bunch of these guys, but look at our D now. How many starters weren’t here last year? No doubt Lanning will be combing the portal, regardless of which Ducks stay or go. I can still see large turnover.
We're also going to have some difficulty in the Transfer Portal seeing as how we're going to be in the middle of the Playoffs when the Portal opens so its quite possible that the majority of guys who "Portal in" do so after Spring Ball.

Re: Redshirts?
Yo Duck, was not targeting you, or anyone else. Why I said it was a cool post speculating on the current roster. Just a reminder everything could be flipped on its belly, cuz it could be crazy silly with roster movement. There are still some non-Lanning guys that he may try to blow out as he accrues higher talent. Possibly why we see a very tight rotation.Duck07 wrote: Fri Nov 22, 2024 9:12 amThat's actual speculation, all I did was take the next man up approach for who is on our roster.Everythingsducky wrote: Wed Nov 20, 2024 10:15 pm Cool to speculate, but in today’s landscape, Lanning could bring in any number of portal dudes, and we could lose some of these guys as well.
