T Choice, D Levens, J Dewberry say hmmm.
But can not say they are all significant
Russell Wilson at Wisconsin, Chad Kelly at Ole Miss, and Baker Mayfield at Oklahoma all also played important roles in their teams winning BCS/NY6 Bowls.Cam Newton and his heisman trophy + Natty Title say hello and transfers can have a significant impact on a program
It's a symptom of TBS.Lamont Simmons. Something about Tech fans. When we get a transfer he just made the greatest decision known to man. When we lose a player due to transfer he is doomed for all eternity and will probably be collecting well fare checks after he graduates.
Well, in fairness, Chad Kelly while a transfer from Clemson was one of those Army draft-era moves. He could either get out of town or Swinney would draft him out of town. And Swinney didn't wait. He was booted and had no choice. The other side of the coin is Russell Wilson and nobody at NC State understands O'Brien's bullheadedness on this one. Willson was a returning starter with experience in O'Brien's system and wanted to see if he had a baseball future. O'Brien issued one of those Lee Ermey Marine Corps edicts to show up on time or else. Willson chose or else, took his chances, failed at baseball but then excelled at Wisconsin (won a Rose Bowl, I believe) and now in Seattle. A bizarre kind of Junction Boys, Bear Bryant I-am-in-charge-here ultimatums with no purpose except to hurt the team.Russell Wilson at Wisconsin, Chad Kelly at Ole Miss, and Baker Mayfield at Oklahoma all also played important roles in their teams winning BCS/NY6 Bowls.
There was also the mike glennon situation, with many people saying that if Wilson came back Glennon would transferWell, in fairness, Chad Kelly while a transfer from Clemson was one of those Army draft-era moves.

That is just loaded with transfer ironies, isn't it?There was also the mike glennon situation, with many people saying that if Wilson came back Glennon would transfer

Well you can cherry pick and come up with a few that made an impact but the vast majority do not leave an imprint.
Go Jackets!
Vad Lee is a fine example.I disagree just because all transfers aren't the caliber as Cam Newton, Baker Mafield etc... doesn't mean they don't contribute to the team. Keep in mind yes they may not fit in at their previous school but there is a reason the team they transfer to wants them.
