Nate McCollom to UNC

[NewEnglandTransplant]

Nate McCollom transferring to UNC. Owch. Nate, thank you for your effort this past four years and we wish you well, except when we play you.

Disappointing for the Yellow Jackets. Next man up!

 

[billga99]

wish he wasn't going to a GT opponent. I guess the UNC offense with a phenom freshman QB made the difference.

 

[JacketFan137]

frustrating but that’s the game we play in 2022

 

[Buzzbomb]

N.I.L.!!

Continues to live in Josh Downs shadow.

We only took McCollum in 2020 because we lost out on Downs to UNC. Now when Downs leaves for the NFL, McCollum goes to fill his spot at UNC.

Ngl this one kinda hurts especially after he was so vocal for Key. Wish him well, but have a feeling this’ll be another Ahmarean Brown situation.

Kidding, that was harsh. How'd he do at SCar anyways?

In 2 seasons at USCe he has 30 catches for 270 yards and 0 TD's.

To be fair, he did have a special teams touchdown this past season.

I feel more upset about this than I did with Gibbs.

Dead to me now. Can’t wait to beat them again next year

 

[UgaBlows]

Next man up!

Good luck to N8

CAN The wr coach pull a rabbit out of the hat ?
Perhaps Key/ Watson have been making some contacts before the public announcment.

I want one athletic TE with huge catch radius and large hands.

Blackburn was a tight end maybe he can bulk up and be a kyle pitts type

Hate hear it that can’t look back .we got to move foward . 2023 a new beginning on the Flats.

Is UNC football really on a higher level in terms of NIL potential? It's not a step up in competition. Just seems strange to make a relatively lateral move like this.

UNC is a lot better than us offensively. It's their defense that really sucks. It's a lateral move in general, but probably a step up currently for a receiver.

I think we made the right hire in Key, but Nate's move just goes to show that you should never let players or recruits hold you hostage when making a coaching hire.

Gt hill will not allow transfers of rising junior or seniors because it will lessen the value of gt. Credits will not transfer.
We have way smaller donations and ticket sales.

We have stopped the stupid, but the long term trend will be down unless we find a way to freely bring in upperclassmen in the portal.

We seem to have brought in plenty of upperclassmen transfers. I'm also not convinced that has anything to do with McCollum choosing UNC.
