22-23 Transfer Portal and General Recruiting Catch-All Thread
- Thread starter The Alabaster Yak
- Start date
SO COOL to have the first transfers of this portal period be DL. Obviously, HCP and the coaches have a plan and now how critical this is. Sweet!!!
He's connected to Chaney and Darden-Box. Hmmm. This would be a great add.
I am pretty sure that the new transfer credit committee is what’s taking time to get all these guys properly committed and set up and see you
I realize that having a transfer from Tenn is a good look. However, when you look at his offers out of HS, Tenn was the only legit P5 offer. And his career stats = 2 tackles and weighs 285. He does have 3 years remaining, but short term Sami is better. Then again, I am not a coach or talent evaluator
Dang. That makes perfect sense. Thanks!
Sami wasn't the only DT we lost. We need to upgrade the position group. And replacing Sami's production means that 1 of the new guys has to give us 1 tackle per game.
This narrative that Sami was good and was needed for this year needs to die. He was a 6th year out of high school guy with NFL measurables who was never a full time player and wasn’t really effective when he did play.
I know DT is not a position where you rack up tackles but I saw he had 42 in his career
The program already addressed: BP film is available.
Hopefully they’re not sending any DP film to the coaches
<1 tackle per game should explain a lot about our run D over the last 3-5 years
Sami had an uncommitable Ole Miss offer and an offer to Gray Shirt from CU out of high school and he has been out of high school for 6 years. Short term Sami is not better than anyone being brought in
Hugh Freeze might like to see that tape.
He'd even be happy to pay for it if he can put it on his university credit card.
A charitable interpretation would be that Upshaw came to CU with the expectation of a featured role and the coaches are now telling him that he may not be guaranteed that role. If the coaches secured his original commitment with promises, that is a bad look. But we don't know how these conversations play out and perhaps it is the coaching staff's honesty with the players that is causing some of the solid depth pieces to seek out other opportunities. Better to let a guy know where he stands than string him along...

Olsen or Fauria or both?
Lived in LA in mid-2Ks. Buddy was grad student at U$C Communication Dept. Worked for campus media. Every U$C practice, competition was the focus.
One day, Reggie Bush was not giving max effort. Pete Carroll asked him if he would prefer a day off and someone else take his reps and spot. Even Peak Reggie Bush got called out. Buddy said that everyone in media’s jaw dropped.
That’s what Prime is building. This is why some guys like Passarello have done well and many others have flamed out. They have embraced the competition, elevated their game, and shown that they can play and want to compete every practice.
Just hope that message is properly conveyed to every guy we take here. Every FSU and Tenn fan are (of course) saying that their guy was booted because of work ethic!
DO NOT COMMIT IF YOU ARE NOT TRULY A
BTW, speaking of competitors… rewarched Spring Practice Propagandafilm… Trevor Woods looks like a way better player already.

(The emoji was so small on my phone…thought the team was going in a different direction for the summer…lol)
Yeah, it's all the canned Emoji's on Allbuffs had for a big canine.
In retrospect, CP should be asking for who wants to be a Ferocious ****ing Buffalo.....
The Bandwagon does not appreciate having its tires kicked. I joke, somewhat.
In my work life, at times I saw guys replaced by identical guys when new management came in just because the new employee then owed his job to the new manager. it's a re-boot and a loyalty creator, even if it's kind of weak. Having said this, Sami did have a chance to set the world on fire here a few times and it didn't materialize long term.
I keep coming back to: The interesting part of the CP Experiment will be 2024 and 2025. 2023 is a going to be a homemade meatball thrown at a brick wall.
Hey. He was taking up two blockers in the middle so that our LBs could…. You know…. Um… get to the… er…. flow out wide for….
Sorry. Forget I said anything.

Martin is the better comparison. At least as good, could be better
