Green was the ultimate team player. Here’s hoping for a monster senior year wherever he ends up.

Hopefully they both find a place they can play and make a significant contribution

Orlando is in the portal - doesn't necessarily mean he is leaving

Green says in his tweet that he is going as a grad transfer with two years of eligibility remaining. Says he has a scholarship offer to LIU.

Two years. That’s fantastic.

I honestly did not know they played football, much less at D-I FCS level which they moved up to in 2018. Looks like LIU had a long history of playing at D-II and D-III levels with decent success. Hope he can make a difference for them

Another question with Green leaving is "who will hold for FGs and PATs next season?"

Have to wonder what next year's kicking game might look like without both Green and Mazza. Going to have a special teams challenge building any depth. Will put a lot of pressure on Brendan Hall

I think Hall’s more than up for the challenge. But, yes, it’ll be interesting to see who replace Green as kicking holder.

Fraanje held some, right? I'd assume he's the guy ... and that Lashlee will find another kicker, either a freshman or transfer
