Four more mysterious departures from the Boise State football team

By "mysterious" I mean I had seen nothing about them leaving the team anywhere.

First - the one I did realize was no longer on the roster was OL - Cord Kringlen - 2022 RS FR

And now - after comparing the 2022 roster to the most recently updated 2023 roster I came across the following who are no longer on the roster:

OL - Tyson Molio'o - 2022 True FR

OL - Julian Simpson - 2022 RS JR (walk-on)

CB - Justus Del Rio - 2022 RS FR (Walk-on)

Has anyone come across any of these four players leaving the team in the last month?  I certainly have not.

CORRECTION - Apparently I did come across something about Molio'o leaving as I do not have him on my own list of the Boise State football team.  And I also no longer have Justus Del Rio on that as well.  But I have not come across anything about Kringlen or Simpson leaving the team.

P.S. None of these four are listed on the 247Sports transfer portal list for former Boise State football players.

I think youre starting to see some guys get asked to move on. Doesnt mean that they wont eventually enter their names into the portal. No spot is guaranteed in todays game. Even if youre on a scholarship. If you are a guy who is on the bench for 2+ years, chances of staying on that team are not very high. Coaching staffs have made it very clear they are much more aggressive now in how each scholarship is distributed due to the portal.

This sort of attrition happens EVERY year about this time.  It's just part of the process.   The good news is it frees up scholarships for new additions to the team.  Last year between April 1st thru Aug. 31st there were six recorded Boise State football players who entered the transfer portal and there were others who left the team who did not enter the transfer portal.

These annual departures usually come after these players have a so-called "come to Jesus" meeting with the coaches and the coaches let them know that they should explore their other options because they are not going to be a part of the plan at their current school in the future.   This happens at every school every year.
