2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

Featured Replies

I wonder who the mystery WR is. I doubt it's Mims, I feel like his name is mentioned too much for this level of secrecy. Maybe Earle? Texas + Sark connection makes a lot of sense with him.

In the recruiting thread someone said Quentin Johnston

If so, timing seems funny.  TCU had coaching change and ain't bowling, not sure why he'd be waiting to make a portal announcement.  Coordinated with Texas coaches to try to aid in recruitment of someone like, oh I don't know, Evan Stewart?

Apparently he hasn't decided whether to leave or not yet. I don't think Stewart has anything to do with it. Also Stewart ship has sailed unless he wants to portal here next year.

Or it has something to do with the timing of portal replacement numbers.  There was a Dec 15th (or end of semester) date that effected whether that replacement counted against your numbers.

I never saw, did Stewart actually sign?  I don't think he comes here, but just curious if that's finally locked down

Not yet but he was hanging out with Demas all day yesterday and several aggy players mentioned when he was signing before 995ers knew, so that paints a pretty clear picture.

I really don't understand why Demas is sticking around.

Interesting. But that senior safety is now going on the the NFL,so presumably Watts would be next man up.

Maybe the doctors discovered that he's allergic to women wearing flannel shirts.

Or maybe the coaching staff that Watts committed to play for is not going to be there on the defensive side of the ball.

Maybe but I'd still take an experienced transfer rental to bridge the gap until the 22s are ready. 

The two biggest portal OL were complete busts at OU and aggy respectively. There is no guarantee that you are getting an upgrade over what Texas has returning and bringing in. Plus if you are trying to close Campbell for NSD #2, bringing in portal along the OL isn't the best way to do it.

I think if you are wanting to bring in a portal OL they better be Donovan Jackson or the Brocks, otherwise be happy with the 7 2022 kids you got.

I think if they get 7 HS guys, that's it for OL recruiting.

Are we going to start a Fab 5 against Bama?

So youre buddy's opinion is that the bag game is never going to be minimized and it will always be the large determining factor in things? Well ok?

Your point is spot on.  There was a lot of cognitive dissonance.  Hand waving aside the possibility that a recruit might take the money and bolt with “Well that’s just not how things are done in the game.”  Placing your faith in uncles and a “gentleman’s agreement” when we’re moving to an era with free transfers and indirect recruiting of your roster seems like sticking your head in the sand.

Has Brian Kelly ever had an NFL quarterback at ND or Cincy?  I can't recall one. I guess Ian Book might have a chance?

Remember when this site flipped the fuck out because someone said Brennan was our plan B if Ewers didn't pick us.  

 

Good times.

I don’t really care but who has Kelly developed?

Just now, BornAndRaised said:

 

This is the guy that took that screen against aggy for a long TD 

He had a wide disparity in the services. 247 had him #246 in the nation and he was #112 in the composite. #133 on ESPN and #20 nationally on Rivals.

Based on production to date it looks like 247 was closer.

I think he has proven that he is not an NFL QB despite being drafted in the 2nd round.  He has been on the practice squad for most of his career and was released from the Titans practice squad last month.

That almost certainly means CW is staying at OU.

He doesn’t want to face the new UCLA offense when he is at USC.

When you are an 8, you don't want to show up to the party with a 10.

The expectation was that Gabriel would be following his old OC (Lebby) to either Ole Miss or OU.   He's not going to OU if the starters job isn't available.

Would be funny if CW stil portals from OU to join Riley and leaves them with squat after missing this guy.

Good times. 

Some guy with 4 followers on Twitter at that.

Sounds like Bama might be about to land Ricks (already happened), Gibbs, and Boutte (hasn't entered portal yet). 

Jesus. This is why 247 needed that new overall team rankings that calculates the transfer portal and recruiting class together. That would be an absolutely insane haul in terms of transfers. 

The game is also changing now. Looks like Saban is going to grab 3 to 5 top transfers moving forward even with these stacked recruiting classes.

And yet, they fucked up against the fighting Calzadas.

But after that - of course they put it all together, get into the playoffs, and will probably go on to win it all ... unbelievable.

2 of his best players this year were transfers: LB H.To'oto'o and WR J.Williams.

Didn't stop him from crying like a bitch about losing RB K.Robinson to us though.

Well, he is 5’4”.  I mean no matter how many titles he wins his tombstone will always read, “Here lies Nick Saban; the greatest manlet there ever was.”

I am hoping the possible portal WR is Quentin Johnston.  He would be perfect.

There is a heretofore unknown brain tumor that, as it turns out, is indeed communicable.  They have named it Leonoma.

Did you think :

1. Riley went to Westwood?

2. Ucla is that big of a draw for a guy like CW?

3 you has confused?
