Didn’t Goosby’s brother commit(basketball)? I don’t think there is much to worry about there.

They turned down unmatchable BYU $$ for Austin to play for Miller, but they’re going to uproot Trevor for a year? Seems rather unbelievable. Why the fuck are all the 995ers turning into fcb this cycle?

    Not strictly transfer related, but significant roster news 

  • This kind of shit from our fanbase wears me out. Sark took over a lost program and since we've been to 2 semis and should have been in the playoffs this year but for a committee that doesn't understan

All the 995ers stink right now, even the ones we normally trust.

i was told we were playing the portal to win this off season? how is the loss of the best olineman on the team to the portal playing to win?

It was pointed out in another thread that Portal isn’t the issue with Goosbey. It’s the NFL Draft.

People on this thread are complaining about players entering the portal who have not entered it and bitching about how we haven’t taken anyone from the portal when the window hasn’t even opened yet. Pull yourselves together

Indeed.

What people are talking about is the IT report up above about Goosby potentially portaling.

More realistically, we should have been in the playoffs this year but for a wasted offseason where the coaches identified and strengthened none of our glaring O-line and RB room weaknesses. In other words, the same thing we're worried could very well repeat itself this year.

But hey, if you want to place the blame at the feet of the committee after watching Connor Stroh stumble around for 60 minutes against a dismal 4-8 Florida squad, instead of questioning the multiple poor coaching decisions that led to such a situation, that's your prerogative.

Woah woah woah. Connor Stroh only stumbled around against Florida for ~ 20 minutes before Nick Brooks took his place at left stumbler.

I'm a little disappointed in you satya. That's a detail that opens up so many more doomer angles: the future of our OL is fucked, Flood's whiffing on his big time recruits, it was a red flag that UGA let him get away, etc.

LSU's entire OL seems to be hitting the portal, Lane must be clearing house. They're going to be active competition

Well nothing has happened yet, so there’s that.

Yep. As usual a lot of this board is already panning the movie before anyone has seen it. Find a seat and wait until it starts.

The 20% rake for the agent assumption is absurd if it's accurate. That's a magnitude higher than what they should be making

Surely he and Wingo are 2A/2B (after Arch) for retention, right?

I would add Simmons and Arch, and then go Goosby, Wingo, and then take your pick.

Worked for them the first time but it's boom or bust, nothing in the middle

Concepcion actually had solid d1 game stat sheets. Wilson has 12 catches.and only one game where he played worth a shit. 🤬

Not seeing the comparison. Wilson is by far riskier.

And probably more expensive

The recruiting board turning into a quasi football board has been a hilarious development this last week or two.

I meant dude without a position trying to figure out where to play on offense. Not doppelgänger.

It worked for Jelani McDonald. We'll see what kind of athlete Terry is on NYE.

Typical is 10% for an average player. Top players can negotiate a lower fee.

It's been like that for the 11 years I've frequented this site!

Worked for JT Sanders too in the sense that he was designated athlete, but I’d srgue that’s different because he was an athlete bc he had 2 positional fits that were clean- one on offense and one on defense and a fist fight over who got him in their room.

That’s different than the “this guy is athletic but we don’t know that he has any traits where he’s going to succeed guy”.

Also- a problem with “athlete” in today’s CFB world is when those guys do develop it often comes late. When guys aren’t on a clear track now it seems they are bigger portal risks. I’d guess in the new world you don’t have many guys stay for year 3 and 4 that haven’t made a decent sized impact on the field by year two. The clock starts ticking earlier than it ever has on guys now.

In the past you would have bad days, around national signing day or a big decommitment. But overall the board was much more sane. This long window before the one portal and a lack of anything to play for has poisoned this board with regarded takes.
