Grad transfer from Columbia University: Mike Hinton

 

[Exit 4]

Regarding Rayonte Brown, there was obviously some twitter activity between him and the staff including Edsall the past two months - but you figured a kid like him would have share his offer news along the way.

 

[Exit 4]

Surprise!

Well this answers the question as to how they will treat grad transfers on signing day. Maybe we will see Ardell Brown - WR.

So looks like we will strikeout on signing a TE today. Big need for Feb.

If I am Summers I decommit this morning and start over. Could this play out like the Tim Boyle situation?

And btw- remember when people scoffed at this recruit because he had no D1 offers? Well - now what do you have to say?

Watts is the kind of kid in a similar situation, could have been snapped up at any moment by a bigger program and we lucked out.

Phew...

For some strange reason I’m not worried about that... they’ll pull a rabbit out of the hat once all the P5 dominoes fall.

I say good job edsall for going for under recruited talent. Can’t fault for the kid for jumping on his home school.

Well the nice thing is we do have a great opportunity that is pretty clear cut. Plus, Dunn features the TE in our offense which should be very attractive. Thing is- we need a two way TE. Malik has great potential to be legit two way.

How many QB's do they have left that can change position?
