Kevin Thomson left before the season, I believe when a player leaves like that it allows you to give a walk-on a schollie (like Dalton Baker). Might also allow the staff (with Sneeds ride) to possibly bring in a 5th year Transfer or a late qualifier (like we did last year with Jamal Holloway & Cameron Carr).
Guys who were not on the roster at the end of the season who were on it in the media guide.
Kyle Anderson TE (Graduated, never played a down after returning from his mission, had time left but done with football)
Joseph Salazar DE (RS SO who left the team, not sure if he left school but moved on from football)
Roscoe Kililikane LB (Awarded scholarship in Spring after walking on, was no longer on the team by years end)
Mike Adams Safety (JUCO Player who suffered a concussion in Spring ball and was never cleared)
Erbes is in grad school but has a year left to finish and eligibility , I dont believe he would move on at this point. We do have a few others with remaining eligibility who are buried or have the potential to be passed on the depth chart who might look to move on or no longer play (All speculation on my part).
