2025 Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

Honestly I’m glad we didn’t allocate 2 mil to Singleton. He’s fantastic player but that money could be spread elsewhere and we can could 80% of singleton’s production from the portal or form our incoming class.

Yep.

Comical.

Brent Key

Incoming freshman Jordan Allen is the same body type as Singleton with equal speed and, reportedly, better hands.

If we're to believe roster stats I wouldn't agree with your body type comparison.

Eric: 5'11'' 190
Allen: 5'8'' 170 (reminds more of Malik) but hey maybe he hit a growth spurt and his recruiting pages aren't updated.

For a fast slot receiver with meh hands/route running skills? Thats not a smart use of money for any school imo. Supposedly Ole Miss spent $20 million on their roster this season with disappointing results and no playoff appearance, how long will they keep this up? Auburn spent close to the same i bet and had a 4th in a row losing season. Interesting to see how long some of these fanbases keep throwing good money after bad and how high it will all go…

I tend to agree. Unless you're a Calvin Johnson/Julio Jones/AJ Greene/Ja'Marr Chase type WR, you're replaceable. Singleton is good to very good, but he's not on the irreplaceable tier. Every WR that has portal'ed out of GT the past few seasons was quickly replaced by the next man up. Give me a very good OL and an elite QB, which I think GT will have both of, and we'll be more than fine.

Just an FYI, Malik Rutherford was actually our leading WR in terms of catches, had the same amount of receiving TDs, and 84 yards less in receiving yardage. This offense will, especially with a healthy QB situation, will create productive WRs.

The size we need on the outside

I would rather have a great defensive tackle or offensive tackle than just about any wide receiver this side of Calvin Johnson. Quarterbacks, running backs, receivers get the glory and the money...linemen do the dirty work. Dependable linemen that can get the job done are the foundation for any team dreaming of a championship.

Georgia Tech transfer portal announcements open depth questions ahead of bowl matchup

Four key Yellow Jackets were among the handful of Tech players who entered the NCAA’s transfer portal this week.

Yep.

$2 million dollars to any wide receiver is hard to swallow. I would much rather use that money on linemen especially defensive tackles.

Agree. He’s good but he ain’t $2 million good.

This is one more reason why I love Brent Key. He is judicious he how he spends NIL and works on the bigger picture of putting together a team. He is a cost effective coach.

Agree. He’s good but he ain’t $2 million good.

He might be. NIL is off the hook right now.

From that thread, if true this may be the dirtiest thing Kiffen has pulled.

Not a position we can afford to lose more bodies unless we plan on bringing in 3 or 4 game ready players. If I remember correctly, the game was new to Uche. Hope he turns into a good player for someone.
