UConn Outbound Transfers for 8/1/23>7/31/24 Cycle

[DoctorWho85]

It'd be interesting to hear his thoughts after being under Sanders vs. Mora for a year.

Sanders will continue to improve there offense which showed a lot of signs of being high powered. If they improve the O-line, Joly could absolutely put up huge numbers with that team. Especially in the Big 12 where no one plays defense.

Is it possible for a player to withdraw their name from the portal and stay? Maybe Joly would stay

Or the coaching staff nudged some of the guys out the door and made a promise to help them find a landing spot. This a.) helps do that and b.) creates a supportive image from a head coach that is trying to attract talent from elsewhere.

As I said, I have no issue with guys that aren’t going to see time moving and I have no problem with coaches supporting that. When it comes to guys that are playing like Joly and Shearin, you says thanks and good luck. No need to praise these friggin traitors. It’s like Stockholm syndrome.

Yes…

Yes they can as long as UConn has an open scholarship for him.

I understand that whenever a reader of an internet post doesn't pick up sarcasm that it's the poster's fault since it's hard to do in social media. So that was my fault and I apologize.

Having said that, really?

Meant in jest and intended to be self deprecating. So that’s my fault and I couldn’t care less.

yes

Jaylen Jones who was honored on senior day, is in the portal.

I dont think I have ever heard the name Jaylen Jones before. No offense to the kid.

So basically you want to jettison the less talented players, replace them with better players, but you want all the good players to stay?

Stunned of Florida, rushed for 1400 yards and is in the portal.

If they can’t keep their RB at Florida, then I can’t get on Mora for losing a tight end.

yes but Mora would have to agree to accept him back. Once you are offically in the portal you have given up your scholarship.

Funny you should bring this up. Florida seems to be having a mass exodus today with some quality DL going in the portal.

Folks, kids want to get paid and i don't blame them. If you can pay coaches millions, you can't cry broke.

For something you call glorified gym class you seem to take it pretty hard. Traitors really? But it's just a game. Isn't it?...

Exactly. Remember when a lot of transfers used to mean something wrong with coach, culture, or lost locker room. Nope. You have to assume everyone is gonna leave every year.

Same reaction. I have zero issue with players who were with us four years, graduated and want to move to a lower level to play or go to a higher level to win. Good for him and I hope he makes the most of his opportunity.

We are there already. No one is gonna like the sport by the time the portal is over.

Well of course. That is what every team and every fan in every sport wants isn’t it? Keep the good players, replace the lesser ones with better ones.

When is signing day? Everyone will be excited then.

Why on earth would he stay? He is still going power 4 and will get way more money than UCONN could give him.

I wouldn't say no one.... wealthy Big10 and SEC fans will love sports up to.

I suspect as more and more situations like Joly is facing now pop up, the number of players who enter the portal will subside a bit. There will still be a lot but a market correction, so to speak, will occur. Right now, it's so new that it's a free-for-all and the warts of the process are not as apparent.
