UM / College Transfer Portal

[Mavman]

You guys are correct Martinez. Do any of the current lady Griz volleyball players have a power 5 qb or ol boyfriend? just curious.

I live in Utah and have connections to coaches.

Ok, so what have these coaches told you? He may want to go FBS but does he have any offers or interest from any FBS schools? I'm not saying you're wrong, I believe you, it's just I'd like to know more if you're willing to share.

Don’t believe he has any offers out there yet that I know of I’m just going by what I’ve heard the talk is from these guys that he wants to try and stay FBS, yes several FBS schools are interested especially Mountain west schools.

Something I noticed this morning as I was scrolling through Twitter. Turns out I was wrong, Jack Sears does have a twitter, but he almost never uses it. Looks like every once in a blue moon. However, Rosy and Pease are both following him, but he is not following either of them back. Could that be because he just doesn't use his twitter all that much, or because he has no interest in UM? I actually thought we had a realistic shot at landing him but now I'm starting to wonder if I was wrong. Anybody have any leads on him?

Means nothing. He hasn’t used Twitter in 6 months, and both could’ve followed him
Just a few weeks ago.

The rumblings that I have heard are similar to 84 about Cooper. Sounds like there is some interest, but he is looking at all FBS opportunities currently.

Are there any names we should be paying attention to that haven’t been mentioned on here yet?

Carson Baker who entered portal earlier (Oct), is being followed by both Green and TR. Was at San Diego State before transferring to West KY last year. Of course their follows could be from 2020 also - not current.

Ooh that’d be a nice get. He’s got starting experience and his numbers look nice. Seems like he actually played a bit at SDSU but never saw the field at WKU. I’d take this kid.

The transfer portal is principally structured to serve FBS teams. Most (not all) athletes will want to remain FBS and will be reluctant to join a FCS team.

Nothing solid. Everything is just speculation and seems like that is what other posters are doing based on twitter follows. Might hear more when the dead period is over which for us is Jan 11th because of the 7 day rule when we start classes. Might be a good weekend for visits.

That’s just a flat out lie. We get it, you don’t wanna be in the FCS, but guess what? There’s several P5 guys on the team. It’s not “principally structured” to favor FBS. Big Sky schools and FCS schools get drop downs all the time. Justin Ford and Omar Hickd Onu didn’t seem reluctant to moving down. Quit kidding yourself!

GTID gets it. Nailed it again.

Hey ding bat! Don’t try and turn it around! I’m well aware that our program has had drop downs for years and we will still get some. However, the portal and NIL will dry up the good ones. Peddle your baloney to someone with little awareness——like you!

I’m not a huge fan of the Griz being FCS, but I definitely agree with you. Players get plenty of eyes on them playing for the Griz.

I've already pointed out that your idea of FBS-to-FCS transfers "drying up" is mathematically impossible, unless you're also suggesting that FBS guys would rather retire than play for an FCS team, which is just ridiculous on its face.

 

[Griz#64]

I Believe Kids Just want to play, and unless it is for money,( scholorships) they want to go where they can play.Hell even "Sketchy High". Who in hell wants to be a backup and get slivers or become a dummy holder four 4 years . How many of you posters here picked up slivers for 4 years, and did you like it ???

You must not have a clue about how recruiting or the transfer portal works. There’s currently 6,000 guys in the transfer portal. You can’t sit here and try and tell me that every single good FBS transfer is gonna end up at another FBS program, that’s insanity. There’s not enough scholarships or roster spots for all of them to stay FBS. Now sure, no FCS team or even a G5 team will land a 5 star Alabama LB transfer, that’s just not realistic. There will still be P5 and G5 drop downs with lots of experience and starting time that will transfer down. You’re acting like this is the NAIA when the truth is while this maybe the FCS, it’s still D1 Football.

You realize that players don't transfer mid-season, right?
