Hopefully as small as possible

10 to 15 is probably pretty reasonable.

If Testa is in the portal, I’d suggest we go after the Utah Tech kid with the big leg? I’d love to be able to put kickoffs out of the end zone consistently and also have a chance at a fg over 40 yards.

I guess he just wanted to Testa the portal waters a bit. I will get a kick out of watching it all.

Coloraggie · Post by **Coloraggie** » December 4th, 2023, 12:06 pm

I'm just curious why Testa would go? He was doing great on extra points and field goals until he got injured and now Nimrod is graduating, it seems like the starting job would be his. Must be something more to this one, but in the end I'm less worried about replacing a kicker than any other position.

Ryan Marks did all 3 kicking duties in HS.

Shipley of Hawaii is also in the portal.

And Kotsanlee will be back next year.

I don't know if Marks is good enough at placekicking, but sounds like he could be an option.

In my wildest dreams we only lose 10-15 starters.

Nimrod will be back in 2024.

I honestly think we're going to be really good next year. I'm not usually so optimistic but with the talent we have staying and who we have coming in is very impressive.

The commitments from guys staying this December, plus early pick ups, are very encouraging. Lot can still happen - if we can keep Legas I'll be happy.

Nimrod will be back in 2024.

Too bad. We need to use that spot in a kicker with a big leg

What’s the word on our running backs. Will we have the three headed monster back next year in Briggs, Booth and Faison?

Sounds like Booth and Faison will be back but nothing from Briggs yet. Honestly, Booth and Faison are better than Briggs but seems how they were all banged up this year would be nice to keep all three.

Is it possible to strengthen Nimrod's leg over the off season. If he could add 10 yards to his kick-offs it would sure help. So many games the opposition ran the kick-off back for some yardage or we pooch kicked the ball.

Same here. What’s the opposite of talking someone off the ledge? That’s what I need. I’m ready to buy my MW Championship Game and Playoff tickets already.

Have you looked at next years schedule? 9 wins would be quite the accomplishment

Knowing 22’s track record, it’s highly unlikely that he has any knowledge of the schedule. I’m not convinced he actually knows all that much about Aggie athletics.

@aggies22 do we know what positions the staff is targeting via portal?

I'll ask for certain but I'm comfortable saying QB, OL, LB, and CB right now.

The schedule is awesome. But we should win 3 non conference games, Robert Morris, Temple and Washington State. Temple was not good this year. Neither was Washington State, and they are about to get obliterated in the portal.

I think we have a decent shot at most MWC teams we play, we have a favorable schedule missing out on SJSU, air force and Fresno. (Though I will count Boise as a loss at this point)

That leaves USC and the mystery big12 team. Which are probably losses.

9 wins seems plausible.

That is the first time I've wondered if Coop is maybe leaving. You typically want 4 QBs on Scholie. This year we have three maybe 4. We lose 1 (I hope) and bring in two in Jesse and Petras to get where we want to be. Have to wonder what is going on if we are looking to bring in 3.

1000 kids hit the portal yesterday. 1000. That's a one day record.

Ah, well that's fine. Rather lose Hillstead than Coop.

Big loss in my opinion. He has the arm and the timing to be very good.
