Yes….maybe he can team up with Kyle Ringo. Those two are cut from the same cloth.

22-23 Transfer Portal and General Recruiting Catch-All Thread
- Thread starter The Alabaster Yak
- Start date
We have one of the best corners to ever play at HC. Our Corners coach played a decade in the NFL. Our DC is the reigning best recruiter in the country and secondary expert.
Trust their evaluations.

Logical conclusion, yet seemingly out of the grasp of some. I truly though AllBuffs featured at least the Top 6-8 talent evaluators in the NCAA.
Please
The only reason a guy like this would leave the reigning national champions is to put pressure on the system to produce a bigger bag. He's not leaving GA, he's just doing the equivalent of holding out during the pre-season to get a better contract. Maybe the NIL bag would be better elsewhere, but not at CU I imagine.
What are we at, 5 players In a few days already?

Well, technically, 5 players officially since midnight.
Only about 15 more to go....
Harris, Dixson, Reed, Austin, Stacks
Still need 6 more just to get to 85

Stacks is a player who kept surprising me with how productive he was and how he developed. I didn't think he'd ever be more than a FB and ST guy. In the right opportunity (probably at a lower level), I think he could be a feature back and I'd love for him to get that opportunity.
He’s a serviceable slot corner at best.

Any rumor on anyone we are in on?
Could contend for CB3 and better than a serviceable slot corner but even if he is CB3 coming out of spring he can see the next couple years and the writing on the wall. He isn't going to be a starter and is almost certainly going to be recruited over, likely multiple times.
He is better off to go someplace where he has a solid shot at being a starter and at keeping that starting job for the rest of his college career. That isn't here.
He didn't surprise me at all. Looked like a PWO, and not really a G5 back. Never understood that offer. Rather slow, not really powerful enough to be breaking a bunch of tackles. Didn't put the fear into opposing tacklers. There's a ton of more explosive/powerful RBs even at G5, in my opinion.
edit: would add that not all of that weight was good weight either. Look at photos of Lavonte Bentley (LB transfer from Clemson) and it's night and day.

Not surprising, one of the WOM videos had CP telling the staff that he wanted evaluations on every player by Friday. Me thinks each player was told Friday what their status was and where they rank on the list, and with the portal opening Monday, it is best not to wait if they want any hope of playing somewhere else next year.
Know anything about him other than the obvious? I don't really watch much Old Dominion anything.
Here comes the ODU jokes
I agree. I also think he might have seen too many better athletes ahead of him for even ST time as a returner, which means he’d essentially just be a back up CB and maybe a gunner on ST. Seems reasonable to think he can get more time on field somewhere else.
This needed to happen. Per a source, this dude hasn't been committed to the program for 2 years.
UNC is his speed. And he'd be a back up.
Or possibly a D2 scholarship.
This kid is a solid plus-sized athlete. I even saw a real bend around the corner on a pass rush (once at least). Looks like he works hard and is relentless in chasing the ball. Maybe not super high-end, but solid at the edge and potentially a good depth piece at a position of need.

Looks to be a TE who has been at North Texas and was a redshirt-freshman this past season who earned multiple All-Conference honors. (Assuming his Twitter account is accurate, his other offers since entering the portal are Cal, Utah, West Virginia and Arkansas.)

Dekaney is a really good school in HISD academically
Maybe good pick ups... ODU and North Texas not moving the needle like portal players from Georgia and Alabama. We'll see how this all shakes out.
