The outgoing transfer portal watch is on

[Dunder]

We are over the 85 scolly limit. Napier says we have roughly 10 spots available for incoming transfers. Deadline to get in the portal & be immediately eligible is May 1st. So my educated guess is we should see 15-ish players enter the portal this week. That sure sounds like a lot to me…. But I don’t see any way around this. Opening this thread to keep track of outgoing transfers.

Best of Luck!

Good bye Felicia!

It'll be interesting to see who decides to leave, or gets pushed out the door. I expect there'll be about equal numbers of both but we'll probably never know exactly who did which.

I’d predict Zipperer (sp?) is out one way or the other.

Why? He’s projected to start?

@Dunder, good to see you! We thought you was a toad!

 

[Dunder]

Why? He’s projected to start?

Just a hunch. Because he wasn’t even on the blue team with the starters for the orange & blue. And also the way Napier keeps talking up Zanders & Keefer but never mentions Zip.

@Dunder, good to see you! We thought you was a toad!

Thanks. I’m trying to not be a regular, but it’s good to stop in from time to time.

We’ve got to lose 4 to get to 85, plus drop one for every one we add.

Looks like we are over-stocked at safety by 2-3, at OLB by 1-2. Beyond this it will be a matter of trimming deadwood for upgrades.

Dexter was Orange. So...

I personally don't like calling these guys "dead wood", they've been working hard. Sometimes it's a bad fit and it's a life lesson to realize it. The "dead wood" that recruited them is already, thankfully, gone.

The 4 year scholarship is dead everywhere now, not just at the football factories. You can't have it both ways.

 

[rogdochar]

Remind me again. By what date must our excess be gone.?
Hopefully, the ones not cut will be enthused to work even harder.
Shouldn't the ones not making it know in time to get a fair shot for another school in the portal.

Fair enough. That’s a callous term. My bad. These guys work way harder than most off us can even imagine. It’s got to be hard when it doesn’t work out for whatever reasons.

I also don’t like naming the ones I think might not make it. I wish them well.

isn't there a COVID rule allowing over 85 for kids like Dean that take the extra year?

Yes

No

Maybe.
