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

[Eli]

KQ (I know) thinks we will have close to 25 in the portal. This portal thing has become crazy.

That’s on the low end. UGA is expecting 40

Pyron entering the portal. This was to be expected

Thank you for your time, Zach. My hope is that you have healed totally and can ball out next year.

 

[stinger78]

Lockett in the portal

Kind of expected this. Darn it!

 

[UgaBlows]

Lockett in the portal

Something has been up with him besides the hand injury earlier this season

 

[Eli]

Kind of expected this. Darn it!

He was demoted to scout team. Sucks someone as gifted as him seemed to just give up on developing himself

 

[stinger78]

Isn’t he the guy who spit on an opposing player and drew a critical USC penalty last season?

ETA: don’t know what happened, but I do know CJS don’t put up with no crap.

If anybody wants to show him some love on his announcement.

If anybody wants to show him some love on his announcement.

Great way to move on. I absolutely hate it, but that is life and I understand his desire to play having graduated from Tech.

All the best, Zach! You will be missed. May God’s blessing follow you, and yes, He does have a plan for you! Press on, my brother!

 

[g0lftime]

He has his GT degree. Now go play somewhere where you can shine. Thanks for the effort and time you gave this program. You are a Tech man and always will be. It will mean even more to you in the future.

Hate losing Pyron, but it's probably the right decision for him to make. On the bright side, I think that's a good sign we're holding on to King and Philo (not that I was super worried they'd leave)

This is one transfer I'll be keeping tabs on next season. Hope he goes some place where he will start and make a difference.

Yes. I knew once his cast came off, and he still wasn’t seeing the field, after being a key piece last year, something was up more than bouncing back from an injury.

 

[Eli]

Evan Dickens in the portal. No surprises so far. Dickens left the team in the fall

 

[Golden Tornadoes]

Corey Robinson II has hit the portal

 

[UgaBlows]

Yes. I knew once his cast came off, and he still wasn’t seeing the field, after being a key piece last year, something was up more than bouncing back from an injury.

Key alluded to there being something else keeping him off the field during an early season presser but was very vague

 

[stinger78]

And… FTR, grad transfers I understand much more. If they graduate, they finish their obligation. It would be nice to see them hang around and complete their eligibility, but that is often not available to these guys.

 

[stinger78]

So I assume none of these guys will play in the bowl?

 

[jojatk]

So I assume nine of these guys will play in the bowl?

Not necessarily. A number of the guys who had announced they were going into the portal last year traveled with the team to the Gasparilla Bowl. I'm not sure how many, if any, actually played in the game but guys like Kenyatta Watson II and Tyler Gibson were in uniform.

 

[CEB]

This is one transfer I'll be keeping tabs on next season. Hope he goes some place where he will start and make a difference.

As long as it ain’t against us.
