    Positive attrition. Thinning out the weak and sickly from the herd.

    Losing an experienced upperclass corner is never a good thing. Especially after gardenhire and the draftees. What an ignorant statement.

    He missed all of spring with a knee injury (ACL) and wasn't going to play this fall because of it.

    What an ignorant statement. Burnt toast is burnt toast. Freshly baked or stale. When it's burned, it's burned

    He literally played like 2 snaps in his career, so how on earth was he experienced? Plus he wasn't playing this year anyways.
    Leadership, special teams. Of course he's not a starter, but theres a reason Petersen has involved him in the program going forward. He's a good kid, good for the program. Same with Gardenhire, a valuable special teamer and nickel-dime, reserve corner. Never good to lose a scholarship db before the ssason. Serves no purpose, cant bring a better player in. Award a schollie to a guy is only possible benefit. You guys are as dumb as they come .

    You realize he can do the exact same thing he was going to do this year by not playing, correct?

    He was going to be out for the year with a knee injury. He was not going to play.

    In this case majorly disagree. We lost basically our top 4 corners from last year (Jones, King, Gardenhire and Baker) and nobody who doesn't work for the TNT was thinking "Brandon Lewis is poised to step into the void".

    After spring Miller, Murphy, Bryant, and Joyner are far above Lewis. And if catostrophic injury were to strike, it's going to be Kentrell Love and Ejijah Molden and Keith Taylor stepping in. And none of those 7 players graduate this year.

    If Lewis wasn't winning playing time this year, he was never winning playing time. *Losing* a player who would never see the field is never a bad thing, even if said player has been around for awhile.

    I'm glad for Lewis' sake that he can stay on scholarship and finish his degree. I'm glad for UW's sake he won't count against the 85 anymore.

    Win-win.
    Ever heard of special teams doughnut? Pretty importasnt part of the game. Gardenhire was dynamic on special teams, lewis? Not sure but do

    he's been hurt from day 1. My point stays the same. NEVER a good thing to lose db depth. Injured or not its one less player on special teams, or as a 3rd string backup. Come signing day great, but serves no good brfore. season. If only to ride a walkon who can play special teams...

    I learned it is NEVER a good thing to lose a player who was out for the year with an injury anyway
