Off-season 2020 - Too Swole for the Portal

February is over! That means NFL declarations are done, recruits are signed, and the team is ready for Spring. We get together during the offseason to talk about who's leaving, who's (surprisingly) returning, and who some of the new recruits coming in are. Also, we recorded this before Stanford announced the new Inside Linebackers coach. So, we don't talk about him, but you can read all about Eric Sanders on the Stanford website: https://gostanford.com/news/2020/2/24/football-stanford-hires-sand...
