    #TransferPortalU Though I'm not sure if we accept non 5* transfers at this time. Please respect our decision. No interviews at this time.

    He either sucks or got homesick (maybe both?). Plenty of opportunity for playing time this year but two true freshmen are already making big moves up the depth chart and will probably be our 2nd and 3rd no later than Thanksgiving.

    So he's going to go to UF or Miami and then end up at FAU or FAMU.

    FSU, I don't think we recruited him that hard coming out. UF was on him more than we were. FSU needs bodies.

    I couldn't remember if it was FSU or Miami. FSU would make the inevitable move to FAMU easier.

    we were in on him when Seider was at UF, then once he was gone so were our chances

    We've been booting shit heads leftover from Jimbo and Willie. Doubt we take a risk on him if he falls in that category

    You may be right, but guys are already being recruited heavily on rosters. This will only ramp it up.

    You will now have to recruit kids on your current roster to some extent.

    Personally I think the biggest impacts will be the G5. Just like the transfer portal, it won’t take long for a few kids to try this at upper level P5 schools and sit the bench for them to realize making that move isn’t always the best choice. Kids found out pretty quick in the portal they didn’t have the options they thought they did.

    hasnt had any big plays as our big play guys have been Pitts/Toney so far but he’s been pretty reliable for us, don’t think he has dropped one yet which I expected he’d drop plenty after the scouting report from PSU fans

    seems they are using him a lot on the hitch route where he catches it and then bulldozes his way for 9 yards or so

    there should definitely be anti-tampering rules in place and schools caught should be heavily penalized for it. this should be the kid's choice (as much as this normally allows for, at least), not the kid and eight assistant coaches from another school.

    we had an SEC school give a kid a small bag this Dec. to transfer. He kept the bag and didn’t transfer. Jokes on us because he sucks

    If you built a prototypical receiver he'd be up there but he has no idea how to play the position, get separation, etc. Maybe he'll learn maybe he won't, at this point I wish we'd had the option of a grad transfer DT over him.

    What kind of offense did he his high school run? No reason why he wouldn’t have a clue

    His inability to separate was the biggest issue I saw from him at PSU. And had some contested catches he didn’t come up with.

    Shorter quit on his teammates before the season even ended. That really rubbed me the wrong way.

    Demonstrates a softness that isn’t conducive to success as a high level athlete.

    Pretty much. Showed up to school overweight and out of shape his freshman year and was beat out by other freshman DJ Dale. Now freshman Tim Smith and Jamil Burroughs have already moved ahead of him and have been seeing the field
