Transfers - Outbound (Part Duex)

[Slick]

Back to FBS... Best of luck to the young man....

Must be more to this story. Leaving a much better school in UConn to play FBS?

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

University of Troy? Boston college University?

Am I missing something?? FBS is FBS whether it is UConn or Troy...right?

Better in your opinion, maybe not his. He was one of their best players in 2019 and didn’t get to play last year

I'm not sure if @Slick realized that the Robert Holmes left UConn, dropped down to FCS (Austin Peay), then now transfers back up to a FBS school

Sounds like things just didn't work out for him here.. but they now things are working out better for him where he is now... Happy for the kid... He's winning regardless....

Looking forward to see us "win" too.. It's that time to right this ship....


....orrrrr maybe @Slick confused Magliozzi's transfer from UConn to Troy that was just mentioned???? Hmmmmm?

 

[Duncan Idaho]

He was conditionally accepted into their grad school if he maintains a better than 42yards/p average.

I don’t know if this was ever announced but Eli Thomas is playing for Minnesota State University now

"Here are rounded-off totals for Division I athletes who entered the transfer portal this year: 2,400 in FBS-level football, 2,770 in men's basketball and 1,660 in women's basketball."

Scoggins: College recruiting battles never end in the transfer portal era

The recruiting circus, er, circuit in college athletics returned to normal this week after a pandemic disruption. Camps, AAU tournaments, campus visits and a whole lot of face-to-face salesmanship and schmoozing are back at full steam. Coaches and recruits are developing relationships and trying...

The screaming eagles are getting a great player in Eli and should be thrilled

Mike Anthony: Eli Thomas, now a UConn graduate, returning to college football two years after suffering stroke

>>Thomas is returning to college football as a player at Minnesota State, whenever the pandemic allows. And to hear him these days — to understand his existence and the course he is clearing into a future once jeopardized — is to appreciate the irony of his being silenced and...

A little surprised Alexander didn't end up anywhere.

Actually Marques Alexander announced just last week he was headed to play for the Maricopa Mustangs (Hohokam Junior College Athletic Conference) in Gendale Arizona.

If you look at this list honestly it's not hard to understand why the team has won so few games. We all wished they'd be coached up and have good careers but that isn't always a possibility.

Jordan Swann to JMU

 

[Stinger92860]

Are 4 QBs on roster enough? I wish all these young the best, but my thought is that the replacements will be significant upgrades in most cases. This is just one reason for my optimism. I don’t think we go bowling, but I expect us to be more competitive, the Clemson game notwithstanding.

Super senior Beavers at Cincy....

Super senior Beavers at Cincy....

Understood why he left. It would have been great if he stayed.

 

[JMick]

Understood why he left. It would have been great if he stayed.

one of the few guys that left who would still help the team

Wasn’t on the recently released two -deep depth chart…
