    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    I'll throw one more out there for the grapevine. Kentucky sophomore outside linebacker KD McDaniel entered the transfer portal yesterday. He was rated reasonably, .8763, out of Tift County High School, Tifton, Georgia. He has not played a lot at UK and is more of a rush OLB at 6'2", 240 ish...

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    From last week, but might be of interest as a grad transfer, Vanderbilt wide receiver Cam Johnson announced Monday that he intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal. Johnson, a 4-star recruit in the 2018 class out of Nashville-area power Brentwood Academy, made 124 receptions for 1,233 yards...

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    A slug maybe, but you're no chump..... This feels about right. Seemingly Sims improved, just not as much as we'd all have liked. We'll see if CCL helps him make the next step.

    Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    Finding out you are a local brewer makes me feel like we should be better friends ;)🍻. I keep trying to convince my wife to let me open ours (mine). She won't sign off. Something about kids, college, food ..... I don't understand.

    Griffin is NOT now in the portal

    Unsure where to dig it up, so throwing a question out to the data crowd. How do our transfers in break down for grad v undergrad? Eyeball test feels like our grad transfers have performed to expectation.

    Former Jacket, Travares Tillman is our next DB coach

    I'm probably as excited that the group will have one coach as I am that the coach is Tillman. Welcome back to the Flats!

    Transfer Portal: Who's Coming and Going (2022 Roster)

    As much as losing Gibbs hits the position, I think RB is one of those positions with early contributors. I trust CTC to put together a good group.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    "Lies, damn lies, and statistics." - attributable to Leonard H. Courtney A good engineer can make numbers say damn near anything he wants them to regardless of the argument.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    Thank you. I nasaled some of my beer right here. If my varsity boys said something like this out loud, we'd run until somebody cried.... Although in mitigation, we're pretty soft, so the crying comes pretty quickly 😭

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    I just heard about a book that might be better than the one about puppy dogs and rainbows.... If that one doesn't work, Tony Dungy authored a few good ones too.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    With all the hometown ties for Kittley it would seem the bidding might have been less of a factor. I'm hopeful for new OC CCL. More success than struggle in his past and personal experience with high expectations. Methinks we could have made much worse decisions.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    My father has a saying, "Plain talk makes for plain understanding". After years of working the streets, I agree. I can't stand those that change under pressure. If you are a 'disagreeable', so be it. Produce and be trustworthy. We don't have to drink beer after work.

    QB and OC debate

    Bailey is interesting because he brings competition to the QB room. I like Sims, has some faults of youth, but hopeful that experience increases his efficiency. The man that can lead us to the win should play.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    I'm not clued in to social media enough to know. Are there any interesting prospects tied to Long that might be considering a move with him?

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    Researching background some and came across this article, though dated. https://fightingirishwire.usatoday.com/2019/07/25/247sports-chip-long-no-5-recruiter The article notes the rankings for coaches are as reliable as the one's for players, but it looks like Long has the ability, which...

    OC and DC replacement thoughts!!

    I came to the board to see if Joe was in play or if the hire had been made. It had.

    GT hires Chip Long as new OC/QBs Coach

    I have some study to do on the hire, but you certainly made me step back with "Petrino school of ...... (grabassery, motorcycle skills, team leadership.... :eek:). Hopefully, Chip is a good OC.

    OC and DC replacement thoughts!!

    So not the Nevada OC, but the guy that got replaced as the Nevada OC. It's really tough to keep up with Diamond's intel between sets :cool:
