    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    They don't do that look to your left/right thing anymore even with regular students. The school has made a very concerted effort to get away from being known as someplace most people don't survive, academically speaking.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Of the guys who have entered the portal which ones, if any, have you concerned? That's an honest question. Genuinely asking your opinion. For me I'm disappointed we lost Kennard and Kenan Johnson. So far the rest of the guys I just can't muster up much of a sense of loss. Don't get me...

    GT vs UCF - Gasparilla Bowl (was GT vs Troy - Birmingham Bowl)

    I did a bit more Googling and, to my surprise, there is no rule preventing a player in the transfer portal from playing for his current team. I thought they could not but apparently I am mistaken (first time for everything, I guess 🤣 ). It is up to the coaches. Though this could just as...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    My only reason for hope (note I purposely am not calling it optimism) is that Key made some pretty good hires on the offensive side of the ball and I’m translating that into the hope he is able to do the same or even half as good on defense. That doesn’t solve the jimmies and joes issues but it...

    Geoff Collins worst GT coach of all time

    I am choosing to feel that Collins was the sacrifice we had to go through after a lot of good years with CPJ (love me some CPJ) in order to get to Brent who looks to be as good a man as CPJ is.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Dear me I’m so sorry I replied with some rational responses to your post. Didn’t mean to upset you with that calmly worded post. Since you said it makes no sense to you I was politely trying to explain it from another viewpoint. What’s wrong with that? If one of us needs to relax it ain’t me.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    What are his criteria under consideration? Do you know. Do you know what he would consider a lateral move? Too often we think only of our own criteria or only criteria we think we see when making these pronouncements. I’ve made what some might consider lateral moves in my own career but...

    CFP Discussion

    . Absolutely. Even without the funny moniker ESPN has earned for themselves, the "E" in ESPN stands for Entertainment. Note that it's before the "S" for Sports. Their perception is that the SEC provides more entertainment and therefore more money to their coffers and as you rightly pointed...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Yes he is. When I was looking at the roster yesterday I somehow missed his name. I even went so far as to look to see if he had transferred and didn’t find him so I thought it curious he wasn’t on the roster page but it turns out it was PBKAC (problem between keyboard and chair - ME ha hah). In...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I suspect we had an idea he was considering leaving and feel good about our depth. We did recruit 10 linemen last year and this year. I think with Gibson leaving we will have no OL left from the 2022 class of HS recruits. But we’ve added some through transfer as well. So maybe we are getting to...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    And if you read my reply I said I hadn’t realized the original poster wasn’t talking about Zach because I saw it mentioned he was a grad which I know Zach is and Tyler isn’t. I also said I didn’t mean to cause any more confusion. Again I didn’t mean to cause more confusion.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Yes. I know. Someone asked what the grad one did in response to another post. So I answered what Tyler’s brother, Zach, did. I hadn’t realized there was confusion about which was which. Didn’t mean to add to the confusion.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    He's the QB who ran out of bounds on the last play against UVA during the 2022 season (I think that's what he did). There was a LOT of angst in the GT community about it but thankfully he overcame that and gave us some pretty good play after that once he was adequately prepared. The coaches...

    Would you prefer not having a reliable kicker?

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I suspect the NCAAs position on that, not that they’re right or wrong, would be that the NIL would definitely equate to pay for play rather than the smokescreen of the scholarship being what they get to play and any NIL being for Name, Image, and Likeness. And of course we all know that’s BS but...

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I believe you are correct.

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Yes he is. I was able to go into the 247 Transfer Portal site an look up MTSU and he was on the list.

    Jamal Haynes, Singleton & Rutherford (good news)

    He does look young. And yet he's in our PhD program for chemical and biomolecular engineering.

    Brand New Transfer Season NIL talk

    Completely agree with this. On the one hand I have no problem with kids looking out for their own best interests I do feel like, in a team game, there's an element of trust that needs to be there. Absolutely there's a lot of self-interest that drives performance in a lot of people but I think...
