Transfer Portal?

Collin Miller basically @ing Tony Butler without mentioning him directly lol
Was glad to see this ! I know "pretty much first hand" that Miller has said privately (to friends and family) that the culture now is soooooo much better than before he got here. Mentioned that SF still has to win a few internal battles (player attitudes and buy in) but basically guaranteed SF is on right track and will turn it around. To me, this just solidifies what he said.

This would have been encouraging to hear if our best offensive weapon, with 3 years eligibility remaining, had not chosen to leave us today.

I am honestly stumped on how Wandale thinks he can be best utilized. He describes himself as a swiss army all purpose type of player and Frost went out of his way to get Wandale the ball in a multitude of ways. My hope is that removing Wandale could somehow cause us to spread it around in our attack. I know Frost is thought of as a offensive guru and I am hoping our OL can make him one again. 

 
Luke McCaffrey will exit stage right. Wants to be a QB. Staff wants him to move to WR. He wants QB. Best to go separate ways then. Transfer incoming that will be a positive for the offense. 


I don't see Luke as a qb but if he wants to stay at qb then you leave him there, unless you have a transfer coming-in anyway.  Qb's take a considerable beating here, we can use the depth. Maybe after another season at qb goes nowhere then he will be ready to change positions.

Probaly not as a poweback would be a start. Or having a qb that can get him the ball.

Where he transfers will say alot.
well he wants to be "closer to home" so we will see how that actually stands up soon as well.

He is friends with Rondale Moore and given their similar size and build, I think he sees himself with that type of receiving production. Which he didn't get the ball consistently enough from our QBs.

 
1: Yes.

2; not following any recent Nebraska people

3: Never followed back after the staff followed him

4: Not seeing this anywhere for staff following him

5: See 4

6: See 4

7 See 4

8: See 4

8: don't think they will push here

9: He followed some Nebraska staff after Nebraska staff followed him
It was a list I made a few days ago for players I would take from the portal.

Twitter can be an indication but isn't the end all. I've seen many kids like and retweet stuff of other schools then commit here.

I said the same thing. He is 5'8 without top end speed. He def is a loss and a good player but I think kids feel if you aren't in the playoff you can't go high in the draft. 

 
The NFL will find you if you can play even if you are working at a Subway making lunch.
No kidding!

Wasn't Heinicke working on online classes to finish his degree when he got called?  Probably played his way into a roster spot next year with a chance to compete for an NFL starting job.

 
Here is a good read from Sipple.  My apologies if this was already posted here in this thread.


"It was about 50-50 with my mom and how I was used at Nebraska," Robinson told ESPN. "I loved the touches and the way I got the touches. Sometimes they don't translate to the way I want them to for the NFL."


I hope for the love of God he told the very same thing to Frost and Lubick.  Kind of like knock knock.  Wake up.  Is anybody home????

I don't get the quote.  He love the number of touches AND how he got them.  What does he mean by "they don't translate to the way I want them to for the NFL."?  

If anything, I'd think it would be good for his NFL chances.  No blocking?  Ok, find a tiny crease and make gain.  Poor pass?  Ok, make a good catch?  Wouldn't being productive when a lot of things are stacked against you be a positive on a resume?

The problem, as @BIG ERN pointed out, is that he's an undersized player without the breakaway speed. I agree that the quote doesn't make sense as he was the one player with touch quotas on offense. I am inclined to believe that it was a handicap for the team as coaches had to press to find ways to get him the ball XX times per game. Instead of rolling with Mills or hitting a pass to a tight end, they forced passes and runs to WR. Hopefully his departure will be mutually beneficial in the long run but obviously stings right now.
