[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 56388, member: 265"] One more thing on Custis. If you transfer as an RB you run the real risk of being shoved down the list by new recruits going forward. Often this has nothing to do with actual talent. What happens is what happened to Tony Hollings. Why wasn't Tony playing at RB, where he was the greatest natural in Tech history? Because coaches had brought in RBs that they had put their reps behind and wanted them to play instead. It took a coaching change – and one practice – for Tony to get his shot. If Custis does come back to Tech – and I agree that's a longer shot now – then he automatically moves into competition for a starting spot at BB. The position will be wide open with two senior BBs gone. Also, he won't have to convince the coaches that he has the ability to play the position; they're already sold. If he transfers, he's a new kid who has to fight his way up the lineup and prove himself all over again. I'm betting that this is one reason he still seems positive about Tech and I hope he comes back. [/QUOTE]
