Not just Santana, but does anybody know how many of the highly recruited FR will be able to redshirt? Not sure both of the QBs stay, but pretty sure they both are redshirting and at least one of them should see there is a great opportunity to be the 2nd string guy who I bet will get quite a bit of playing time next season so we are better prepared to deal with an injury. I also believe Santana (WR), Cochran (RB), and Townsend (RB) will get the extra year. I think a couple of the other young WRs might have played in more than 4 games (feels like I saw Booker and Washington out there at WR several times, but maybe it was only 4 games?).
And I honestly forgot that Xavier Graham was a FR. He certainly played in more than 4 games for good reason - he is a really good lineman and we needed him. And I also believe that Brantley (Punter) played in more than 4. Bottom-line is most of our actual true FR should be redshirt FR next year, and that is good for the program. So many skill players we should be able to focus on needs the next year or two.

Graham is a junior, he transferred from UMass but Watson is a freshman and started at least once on the o-line

Yep - I just looked at the "signees" and he was on there. Wish we had him for more time, but glad he will be back at least for 2024!

As for QBs staying, I have a feeling Bennett Judy will stay another year...he will have an excellent chance to be the #2 QB and who knows? I just think if he likes it there and he is from Greenville SC. The Bells think he is another Rogan Wells.

Excuse me....Simpsonville is correct. My point is, WCU is fairly close to his home and that might be important to him. I like having as many "local" players on our team who excel and hopefully we attract more.
