Mavric Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Got a lot of lol's over that one. Still kinda bummed - selfishly, I think an RB like him does a lot for our team this past year. I agree that I think he could have helped. But I don't think he would have been around this past year. The coaches wanted him to redshirt his first year here but he didn't want to. Unless he somehow had a change of heart, he would have run out of eligibility the same year as Abdullah. He was at TCU an extra year because he could use his "redshirt" year the year he had to sit as a transfer. Quote Link to comment

So, in other words, he didn't want to redshirt here so he transferred which forced him to redshirt a year. Quote Link to comment

Though I suppose you could argue that he got to play more in his sophomore and junior years at TCU than he would have here. All those decisions didn't happen at the same time. Our coaches wanted him to redshirt his first year year which he didn't want to do. So he got his wish there. And through the first eight games that year he got as many carries as Ameer. But Green only got three carries in the last five games while AA got 21. So then Green decided he wasn't getting the work he wanted and needed to transfer. Quote Link to comment

GSG Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Falcons Apologize For Asking Combine Prospect If He Likes Men “The Falcons coach, one of the coaches, was like, ‘So do you like men?’ It was like the first thing he asked me. It was weird. I was just like, ‘no.’ He was like, ‘if you’re going to come to Atlanta, sometimes that’s how it is around here, you’re going to have to get used to it.’ I guess he was joking but they just ask most of these questions to see how you’re going to react.” Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Christian Hackenberg's honesty reveals hypocrisy of NFL draft process Hackenberg's numbers dropped to 12 TDs and 15 picks as a sophomore, only to rebound to 16 TDs, six interceptions as a junior. He isn't viewed as a great prospect anymore and is unlikely to be taken in the first round, let alone at the top of it. Now he's dealing with interview issues. According to Robert Klemko of MMQB, at least two front-office executives said "when asked to explain his declining sophomore and junior numbers … Hackenberg has shifted blame to Coach James Franklin." That has, according to the personnel sources, been a turnoff. "Despite the fact that it's probably true," one source told MMQB, "you don't want to hear a kid say that." Quote Link to comment

brophog Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Connor Cook was not a first rounder. Though he could still be sentenced to purgatory by being a very high second rounder. EDIT: Connor Cook clears the first three rounds of drafting. Quote Link to comment
