A lot of new faces after a lot of graduates. George Jordan and Vince York are both for sure going to graduate while Gaffin, Bloom, and Nelson may as well. I'll get 1-5 in either tonight or tomorrow and work to get all 30 done before Opening Day. We just started the preseason, but there's at least a week before the 2030 season starts.
