I believe Trinity had 85 players last year with 22 being Seniors. With O'Brien coming back how can they bring in 29 players? 

The 2025 Trinity roster listed 83 names (23 Seniors). I'm not sure if anyone other than O'Brien are returning for a Graduate year, but assuming he's the only one and nobody else has transferred or left the team it would leave 61 players. If you add in 29 freshmen that puts the number of players reporting for camp at 90. With the roster limit at 84 players, it seems like a pretty reasonable number when you factor in potential injuries that could pop-up along with a handful of roster cuts.

Significantly more than one senior returning, as Jeff Devanney said in our podcast interview with him last week:
