1) Beat Vandy AND one of AU UF TAMU. Honestly, his likely only shot is this weekend, but there's a chance one of the other 3 don't get played - he would be lucky to just miss UF and/or TAMU altogether.

2) Play HB15 the rest of the way, along with the young skill players at RB (Small) and WR and hope that sparks something to show some hope for the future on the side of the ball where we've been largely abysmal during his tenure

3) Play more of the young guys on defense that aren't already playing a lot. Again, show hope for the future while kickstarting development for next season

4) Convince any Juniors who might even consider leaving early to come back for one more season. Especially Mays, Taylor and Thompson (I know, none of them have played well enough to leave)

5) Convince enough of the current seniors who would likely be 2021 contributors to stick around. I'd target the following (can't have enough depth or vets, IMO):
Butler
Solomon
Middleton
D. Johnson
T. Jackson
J. Johnson
Locklear
V. Jones
Palmer
Pope

6) Convince anyone who is talented enough to contribute but might be looking to transfer to stick around. Have heard nothing, just saying...

7) Land Green, Malone, and Evans while securing every single bluechipper on the current commit list to end with a Top 5-10 class

Bonus: Land Ty Simpson if he decides soon
