There is going to be a lot less action than years past but it's already starting for the 26 season. No R info yet but I'm told Maryland is importing Yale's transfers.

IL reporting at least 2 to Maryland. And Owen Gaffney from Harvard is headed to Duke.

I can't say the players name yet as they haven't announced it publicly but it's making the alum rounds. We picked up a very interesting transfer that will be here in Jan and immediately eligible. Big, athletic, down hill dodging two handed middie that can run. Wouldn't be surprised if we see them getting time right away. Best part is they have 2 years of eligibility.

Any update on this? Practice starts Monday

He’s announced it on social media. Blake Borges from Syracuse is coming in as a mid year transfer.

He got caught up in the wash at Syracuse in the staff change but he’s a big athletic middie who can run and is skilled. He had a big fall for them. Assuming he can pick up our systems fast I’d expect to see him earning time quickly.

Syracuse will be an interesting follow. Big expectations and word has been leaking out that things aren’t all roses there.

Had he stayed, based on fall play, he would have played a lot this year. Their loss, our gain.
