Seems like Willis and Butler would at least go as free agents, especially Butler.

 

[blue rai]

My bet that Willis is somebody roster next season in the nfl. I understand he is a little light for what they are looking for but he can also run by people and catch the ball!

I got this from ChatGTP…Is it correct?

“In the 2025 NFL Draft, two former Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) football players were selected:

• Jaylin Lane: A wide receiver and return specialist, Lane began his collegiate career at MTSU before transferring to Virginia Tech for the 2023 and 2024 seasons. He was drafted by the Washington Commanders in the fourth round with the 128th overall pick.
• 
  
• Quincy Riley: A cornerback who played at MTSU from 2019 to 2021 before transferring to Louisville, Riley was selected by the New Orleans Saints in the fourth round with the 131st overall pick.

 

[SubwayAlumni]

Yea. Remember watching the draft seeing Jaylen Lane get drafted. Then a couple picks later Riley got drafted. I didn't remember riley. And then analyst were breaking him down saying a transfer from Middle Tennessee

 

[blue rai]

Yeah, I think they both played on that Aloha bowl championship team but Stock was not able to keep either one.

 

[Hop45]

Yeah, they were both good players for us

 

[FranklinRaider315]

Yeah, I think they both played on that Aloha bowl championship team but Stock was not able to keep either one.

Just curious.
What championship was played in the 2022 Aloha Bowl??
