Will we have enough players to field a team next year?

When a fan has a want to be negative he dwells on who we are losing and who other teams have coming back. It makes it much easier to predict doom and gloom when you do that. CFB is all about replacing a bunch of players most years, which to me is one of the great things about the game, same thing with high school teams.

Next year we are going to be surprised by some great young players, many of whom made tremendous improvement in the bowl practices. Some others will explode onto the scene only because they were behind great players and haven't had the chance to shine yet. And a few others will mature and blossom into the players the coaches thought they could be.

I can still recall coaches right after a season ended meeting with the players they thought were going to be the ones who would replace the starters lost. It happened at darn near every level.
