UConn 2025 Outbound Transfers (Dec. 9th > 28th 2024 & April 16th > 25th 2025 Cycle) *No Speculation*

[UC70]

First one that hurts but with Victor (taking a redshirt ?), Cam and Mel Brown all with eligibility, something had to give.

Don’t over react. UConn has 3 RBs at the very least. More likely. This is not a big loss.

Durrell Robinson had a terrific season. The yards per carry number is no joke. Don’t know whether his plan is just to auction himself or he wants a shot at the P4, but I’ll miss him and I wish him well.

Having said that, I spent all year wishing Cam Edwards would get more carries so ….

You have no idea who’s coming in and may be more productive. Don’t over react.

he isn't

Welp…

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK

 

[WrenchFan69]

Nothing like portal season to put a damper on the first exciting bowl season in a long time. Sad

 

[Windham4th]

Rosa, Edwards and Brown plus at least one transfer is all we need. <insert no speculation overwrite>
Maybe Robinson changes his mind. It's not like that hasn't happened before in our recent past.

Nice to have a successful season and still get bombarded with bad news.

It's good news. Mora gets talent out of guys that got recruited to Charlotte and they move on. We will find more players from Random State University and get them to help us in the short-term and themselves in the long-term.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

Welp…

i think he had the most talent of all the RBs on the team. Seemed like a good dude..i wish him well.

 

[UC70]

he isn't

I disagree.

Really? If you’re serious then you should be sad.

It's ok to be sad when one of the best talents on your roster leaves with 3 years of eligibility. Stop lecturing people.

Talents like Robinson leaving are exactly why there should be no "building for the future" when it comes to game day QB selection in the transfer portal / NIL era. If you build someone up there is a decent chance they will leave, the only goal should be to win as many games as you can each season and then reload, "building for the future" is a thing of the past. Rosters are in too much flux these days to think beyond the current season and as a G5 our top talent is easily taken.

Could be another school already reaching out with a number as it happens after talking to some other fans in the SEC and that it happens more often then I know we would like at UConn.

Robinson could very well be looking for a situation where he'll be the feature back instead of being part of a stable of backs.

I'm far from thrilled with the idea of losing a talented (and by all reports very good) kid but thos may very well work out for him without hurting us. I hope that's what happens.

It’s just the reality of college athletics, especially football. Thankful our offensive line let him run wild all year.

It's better than missing out on bowl season and still losing players to the portal.

That's just spin. It's never good news when talent leaves for something other than the NFL.

Definitely the most natural talent.

100% Correct

I'm wondering if some of the new NIL deals will include a contract for x # of years, locking a kid into a school.

They will then not be required to go to class/get good grades. A contract means employee.

I did minor in part-time DJ at UCONN

Not lecturing. Just the reality of the NIL era. We can ALL make a difference by supporting NIL. It’s called Bleeding Blue for Good. Being sad is a waste of energy. Giving is not.

Is that you Joey Franchize?

The contract wouldn't be with the school. If I had millions, I'd offer x dollars to a player under the condition he is available to play at UConn for at least two years. If s/he transfers, the money has to be pd back. Fails out of school, pay the money back.

Ageed. This is exactly the mind set people should have. We lose Nate Carter to Michigan State and the sky is falling. Now we lose Durell and the sky is falling. People love to complain on this board. Be part of the solution, gentlemen and give to NIL.
