Probably a bit of everything. There is also always the money issue at SMU since very few are probably on fulls.
The funny thing is when Derschang came in as a freshman he was so impressive early I actually did wonder if he would be here for the full four years - thought he would end up in MLS before that!
Derschang never really got back into the flow after his injury last year - maybe he didn't think they gave him as many minutes as he deserved when he came back. He never really got back to being that full-time player.
No idea on Barnes. He has always been an integral part of things since he got here.
Kumeh really hurts as far as the roster shape goes. I thought our back four would have Simmons, King, and Kumeh as sure starters. Now we might have to do something like move Nelson back there.
Some of the freshmen will definitely see a lot of minutes though. I hope they are ready!
