Grad transfer DT from Rice.

 

Oscar Giles is following him on twitter so it’s a good sign we’re interested.

Not a bad strategy to have the best player/team captain  on the Rice team grad transfer to Texas every year.  Address needs and don't sweat qualification.  Mensa.

Rice has gone from having CDC as AD to Joe Karlgaard who is perhaps the worst AD in Rice history (and that’s saying a lot). Karlgaard has made it miserable to be a Rice student-athlete in revenue sports by failing to invest in coaches, facilities, and perks that are needed to attract and retain talent. 

Bloomgren is actually a pretty good coach in a vacuum, but I don’t think he’s going to be successful because ground and pound Stanford style football is difficult to do at the G5 level.

Some here may remember Wade Townsend, who was a pitcher in the glory years of Rice Baseball. Was drafted in the top ten of the MLB draft TWICE (kind of a ridiculous story.. Google it). Has a screw loose and fled to Mexico so he could play online poker. I think he lives in the Hill country now.

Anyhow, he posted this pretty hilarious video on YouTube that summarizes the issues with Rice Football:

PWO, no?

He can contribute to Special Teams and room with his brother. I'm fine with that.

The PR potential if he switches from aggy scholarship to Texas PWO is not negligible.

Would be great if Jordan is willing to start as PWO at Texas and work to earn a scholarship.  Probably a good special teams athlete at first.

I think we should go after Hurts. If we don't, we'll have no hope of reloading this year at the "flash-in-the-pan college QB turned middling WR" spot.

We do have a graduating player that used to play QB whose name is 5 letters starting with H. Worth a look I suppose.

Isn't Leatherwood a starter? 

yeah, he started games which is what would make a transfer odd. But players don't randomly start following coaches from other teams. His two most recent follows are Hand and Herman. Only two coaches he started following.

So just so I can get this straight... a five star recruit who starts for Alabama as a true sophomore, is just going to up and leave Tuscaloosa so he can sit out a year and play at Texas? Seems perfectly plausible.

He was an early enrollee so there is a chance he finished up in 2 1/2 years and can grad transfer, but I put this one into the "ain't no fucking way" category.

They moved him to guard when he wants to play tackle. He also had issues this year at guard.

Wasn’t he interested in Texas when Strong was coaching here? 

Yeah, sort of. Never really materialized in any real way.

IIRC Leatherwood's mom lives in Austin.  Think I remember that when he was mentioned having Texas interest a few years ago.  Anyway, this seems a bit odd that he'd start following Herman and Hand.

Didn't he have us in his top 3 or something at one point?

Hurts would be a massive upgrade over what they currently have. He might be enough to pull off a big upset or two.  A conference title? I'm a little suspect, but it would make that TCU game much more dangerous than otherwise.

I don't cover straight transfer but if the rumor has any substance, it's worth noting that Leatherwood's mom lives in Texas (at least she did when I covered him).

I'm in for $100 if someone has an account on that site and wants to bet on SMU. Let me know.
