Low key huge keep. If Dremel improves by 5%… stronger/faster/route runner/pass catcher he could be a true weapon next year and be the perfect NFL pickup after next season. Belichick loves guys like him. I wonder if Brantley will be allowed to play next season…

I mean no disrespect to him and am not a hater. I don't see him as a prospect for the NFL. He might as well finish out his career here the best he can, while pursuing an advanced degree. I for one am glad to have him.

That's huge. I definitely was worried some programs would be circling him.

From NJ.Com - RU just offered Monmouth University WR Dymere Miller from the tranfer portal. Pitt, Texas Tech, and FAU have also already offered. 90 catches, 1295 yards, 9 TDs. He's from Pa.

This sounds like a guy we could really use to complement Dremel and Strong. Will also be interesting to see how Famah Toure comes around this Spring.

But he's too short! [/sarcasm]
I don't care if he is 4 ft 3 inches. Until proven otherwise, he is our #1 receiver next year.
My money is on Ian Strong for #2.
Is Jackson back? Hope the Brantley kid (who will be 35 years old?) can play.
Looking forward to Chris Long returning too.

I think he would have a shot if he was bigger. I'm not entirely sure he won't have a shot anyway, but I think there would be concerns about how well he could deal with the sort of hits that would come his way as a slot receiver.

I was going to do a separate post on Dymere Miller, when I saw he led his conference in receiving yards, and Monmouth did not have a winning record. We think a lot alike!

Yes please!!!!

2023: Ian Strong, Famah Toure, Jesse Ofurie, Vilay Nakkoun, Dylan Braithwaite, Deondre Johnson, and Davon Fuse.

Is there room for the Monmouth guy in the wide receivers room ?

Anyone know if WR Brantley will get the waiver for next season… or after missing one year it shouldn’t matter and he can play if he chooses to ??

Yes, if he's actually really good.

He's an ok possession receiver to have for quick slants and pylon tosses.
He's not a downfield WR and not having a good one really hurts in RU's conference.
I would be shocked if GS doesnt dig-up a half decent wideout for next year.


The 100th ranked receiver (Kole Wilson) this year had 61 catches for 700 yds and 8 TDs
No RU receivers even made the top 100 (Drems has 44 catches for 450 yds and 3 TDs for five years).
Nothing NFL about that

I agree on paper. But I can’t stop seeing the Ramapo HS kid who played Lax in college score a TD for the Patriots in the Super Bowl. I would say P5 success >> LAX career for this position on average.

Except Hogan had measurables Dremel doesn't have. Probably wasn't recruited by Paterno when he played lax at Penn St.

I think some of these guys will play defense.

Probably doesn't need a waiver as he's sat out the full season

Nothing not to like about this. Kid is a gamer. Think he’s a solid 2 or 3 wr in a productive passing corp. RU needs to develop or bring in a true #1 and #2 along with Wimsatt improvement; and for goodness sake let’s develop or bring in a solid TE.

GO RU

Excellent news! Let's be honest: this is not only a plus on game day but my guess is like having an extra coach/GA out there on AND off the field of play. Seem to be "that" kinda kid. LOVE IT!

Why the Flaming F is anyone caring about his NFL prospects or compared to number x receiver.
Kid came on his own dime- made the Ship, played through fans openly saying he is not D1...yes- some of you pasting here.

Be happy that he played his way to a ship and became our top WR this year- be happy he is either going to have another year of football and credits toward what he may do next. And that is important even if he finds his way onto a team and plays a few years.

Kid dreams, attacks them against all odds and makes it work.

dude is a major plus for us to come back and I hope it is just as beneficial to him

i've been watching more Pac12 teams that are joining next year play this year. a lot of fast small slot receivers that are hugh contributors. forgot the name but Oregon has that WR. man he is good.
