We have three returning starters. Two other players have played at UCLA, and one of those hasn't played in over a year.
Freeney hasn't played a minute for UCLA.
Then you have 4 transfers. Only Donovan Dent is a sure thing.
The only players I am confident about are:
Dent
Bilodeau
Dailey
Clark
Then you have 6 other guys, who haven't proven they are ready to be big contributors for UCLA. We need another starter and 3-4 solid subs. I would rather try to find that out of a pool of 7 or 8 players than a pool of 6. It just improves the odds.
And there is also the issue of injuries. We were pretty injury-free last season. We can't count on that. We need depth.
We may not need 14 scholarship players, but we sure need more than 10.
