Are we really done at LB? By my count we have only 5 (with the portal player) non walkons with 4 incoming freshmen. Am I correct?

That's probably a decent number. We only have 2 on the field at one time getting most of the snaps and have 2 others (Mikhail and Lockhart) with quality experience that will rotate
You are correct and I suspect Elko is done adding here.
Highly unlikely we add anymore LB. We only play 2. We will have 2 with good experience next year and 2 with some experience. No need to add more unless we lose someone we weren't expecting.

Just replaces the much better LB they lost to the 2026 NFL draft (Hill).

Not sure if he'd be a better replacement for York or not but I sure wanted Elko to snag him.
The best defenses we ever had on the field were utilizing 3 linebackers in the 4/3. I'd take a 3/3 so we could still have a safety, but we need 3 LB's on the field.
The best defenses we've had in the past quarter century have been Elko's, and they've had 2 LB's.DGrimesAg92 said:

I'd take Elijah Barnes or Rashon Myles for some depth. Given the car crash nature of the position, even with just 2 on the field, I not bad to have depth at the right price. I'm also just fine adding another strong safety with upside since we pretty much utilize them like outside LBs in our defense anyway.
Give me the SS over a LB any day

If you can gain 5 yards on our NINE LB's we should add someone.
You could be overlooking the obvious. What with our best pass rusher dropped into pass coverage last year, we may well use our QB 3 and QB 4 as well as our FG kicker, punter, and a WR or two to fill in at LB. Sort of a case of stealth on the depth chart. No one, and I mean no one, would suspect it.
You must be new to Elko's defense

The game has changed massively brother. Not even comparable.
