If Jontay joins, we will have 13 scholarship players on our roster. Going back over past rosters we haven't even had 12 scholarship players on a roster since 2009-10, and even then Jon Underwood and Tyler Stone were very close to walkons in role. I can't even find an example where we had 13 scholarship players.
One of Martin's initial struggles may very well be establishing roles and rotations, given that he will have a large class of incoming players who will all expect to be contributors and a returning core of guys who have all been asked to be primary contributors previously. Its really hard to play more than 10 players with any real kind of roles for each of them.
