If you read their twitter comments they are leaving

Three guys I heard rumors were leaving even before Elder was let go were :
Caleb Martin
BK Smith
Conor Blount.
Don't really know (for sure) who is on the Portal. I have heard 5-8 kids.
Who has seen tweets and such about others?

Hopefully we will have a new HC soon and a team meeting will keep those we don’t want to lose from transferring. Truth be told, our recruiting has not been the best in the OVC during the last few years. Just google FCS recruiting classes.

Here’s the most recent. Peay has out recruited us in recent prior years.

No doubt. My point is that there has been much said about the rankings of the Elder recruiting classes when they have not been the highest ranked in the OVC. I know we are in for a reset. Elder is not a bad person; he was picked green. Never been an OC or DC; he was not ready to be a head coach. I wish him well.

How do you know this? Which commits have we lost? Or is it just speculation?
