Here is an early list that will be updated as needed. Pretty sure all of these guys were told they were not in the mix for playing time in their interview with Sumrall after spring drills.

RB Iverson Celestine
WR Terez Traynor
WR Jaylon Griffin
OT RJ Whitehead
DT Maxie Baudoin
OL Lajuan Owens
LB Taylor Love
WR Hunter Summers
CB Jai Eugene
CB DK McGruder
OT Noah Gardner

Traynor and Griffin were transfers after Sumrall arrived, but Griffin was hurt and Traynor did not make many plays. Neither had overwhelming resumes when they transferred in to Tulane, but this is the new world of guys not even staying for a season.

Whitehead was a member of Sumrall's signing class, but those are always cobbled together with new-arriving coaches. Whitehead started at left tackle Saturday, but that was due to the number of guys out. Clearly, the coaches were not impressed with his upside this spring.

Baudoin never got off the scout team under Fritz.

Celestine has some ability and was effective against Kansas State two years ago, but he was running fifth behind Hughes, Barnes, Clayton-Johnson and Cornest and also can be difficult to deal with at times. That combo platter has him headed to the exit door.
