I had thought they used Denzel Drone quite a bit as Gholston's backup, but I could be wrong. The point remains that this might be the easiet component to replace of the three who have left in the last 18 hours or so. Supposedly, they have a RS freshman - Shilique Calhoun - that they claim to see as the logical replacement as well, but obviously, a lot of unknowns there in terms of ceiling for him. If the Spartans feel this anywhere next year, it might be in the areas of TFL and sacks, where Gholston still contributed about 20% of each for for them. In combination with other losses, Narduzzi may have to design a secret blitz that requires no pass rushing, of course.

Johnny Adams at CB, Norman at LB, Hoover and White at DT, Gholston
McDonald and Fonoti on the OL
Sims at TE and Bell at RB
Dan Conroy at kicker

O should be very poor, worse than this year.  They still have the core of a good D with Rush, Bullough, Denicos Allen, I.Lewis and Dennard.  But not as good as this year

To be fair, we are losing a lot in the trenches too.  Next year's offensive line is probably going to be brutal, at times.  Could be as many as three redshirt freshmen starting.

It could be bad, but guys like Kalis might be an upgrade after another offseason of coaching and camps.

Their back 7 will be good, probably not the best in the conference, maybe not the best in the state.

But that matters little when your DL sucks. A good secondary is neutralized when there's no pass rush and good LBs are neutralized when OL get a free release on them.

He'll be a combine warrior and be drafted way too high like Vernon.

Vernon was actually productive in college, and only flopped once his pharmaceutical tendencies started to be scrutinized in the NFL.

Tom was never productive.  Even if you're a physical freak, you won't do much in college if you loaf around on the majority of plays.  NFL scouts watch for that kind of thing.

We'll see how that super slow motion spin moves works in the pros where most tackles are as good as Lewan.

He has also mastered the art of just leaning on the OL.

With Sims, Bell, and Gholston gone, what impact does that have on Bullough & Dennard? MSU is really lucky that they seem to have held on to Narduzzi, because if he left too it could be completely back breaking to this team.

Bullough's an MSU legacy guy, so I think he's staying no matter what.  Dennard's said he's leaning towards staying, but wasn't 100% sure.  The departure of three teammates might sway him.

Should have boxed the Sparty exodus trifecta rather than playing it straight.  My losing ticket had Bell announcing 1st, Ghoston 2nd, and Sims 3rd.

No need to worry.  I'm sure Dantonio to will shape a new Gholtson like player who plays tough, acts like a thug and  makes unsportsmanlike conduct a work of art.

It's honestly a good idea for him to leave this year.  He'll be drafted in the mid rounds on potential.  If he stayed another year and had another lackluster performance, he may not be drafted at all.

the exact same thing.  Better to be a 4th/5th round guy now, than a FA next year.  On the other hand, staying and finishing a degree so you can actually contribute to society at some point in your life isn't a bad idea either.  But of course, that concept is lost on a lot of good college athletes.
