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

[kg01]

When can we send an offer? I don't know the rules now.

Rules? Rules?! You think there are rules?

Seriously tho, I don't know when the contact periods are.

Most everyone has held a job where you were a bad fit - manager changes, required skill changes, company priorities change, etc. A top performer can (and will) change companies when their current situation isn’t working. I’m not sure why anyone would think performance (real or perceived) can’t change with a change of job.

Phil Longo for OC

GT has done well with Ivy League players:

Yes, and it looks like he's been getting lots of practice in games this year.

If Shanahan were still going to be here we aren't going to carry 2 punters on scholarship.

Pretty sure they lifted scholarship limits

Shanahan is a senior and doesn't have a COVID exemption. Pretty sure he's gone next year

 

[Golden Tornadoes]

I'm VERY happy we jumped on this quickly. I would imagine a full ride to Tech with the starting punter spot all but assured means we land him?

He is listed among the seniors being honored tonight which usually means this is their last home game at GT ever. I'm sure there have been exceptions but it certainly looks like you're right @apatriot1776 .

I feel like we really need to address LB. I don't have an eye for picking this up during games, but it seems like Tatum and Efford are used heavily and other guys haven't been getting as many reps. I also see a lot of youth on the depth chart.

Luckily Efford sticks around next year, but I feel like we could use a starter or at least some depth at this position.

Tahj Butler has done a good job during his snaps, and EJ Lightsly has played some too. One of them should fill the other spot

On defense we got quality & depth at CB/Safety and we got youth at LB but definitely could use someone with experience as a solid back-up. The defensive line takes the big hit with a lot of Seniors who were mixed in thru this Season. We have a lot of young talent coming in there but we probably need at least a starter quality transfer and another good rotational guy to come in and contribute.

Butler is also pretty fast for a LB too. The kid moves very well in space, just needs more seasoning.

I’ve been disappointed in Lightsey this year, really thought he’d stand out and push for more playing time. Hopefully another year under his belt will be what he needs.

I think he got injured again during the year or he was still not at full speed for much of the year. If he stays healthy, next year he’ll be much better. Getting back to 100% from his injury takes a long tome

Yes, I stated he was a senior.

 

[NorthAvenueNation]

Looking at his bio on Kenn. State, he is planning on being an Aerospace Engineering major. Well... gee... I think I know of a place where he could major in that and kick a ball.
