Transfer Portal 2023-2024...

You know, come to think of it, when was the last time you heard of a player having to sit out due to grades? I don`t think that happens much anymore ( if at all ), particularly at the " blue bloods " of college football.

Grades? I think someone said grades.

I thought they flew those guys in for games. Fast Times at Ridgemont High😆

This… he likely would have entered in the spring window even with Saban staying.

good luck to Proctor .. atleast he has a understandable reason one can have empathy for

Just scuttlebutt that he had entered the portal

careful there bud. I took a lengthy suspension airing my grievances out on this kid.

He will be in lot better system for his skill set as well. I don’t think he had the quickness to become an elite tackle in SEC with the speed rushers and spread offense. He is a mauler and Iowa plays that style.

Come on…Try to move on.

 

[davefrat]

Do you mean you were not insinuating that?

Yes…my fingers are too fat for a phone keyboard.

 

[dWarriors88]

I've most respectfully moved on

I respect the benevolency

It doesn't happen any more, those days are long gone...

LOL! I guess that there was a reason I couldn`t remember anybody being " academically ineligible " . What was I thinkin`? That would require a player to be an actual student....athlete. Then again, in this day and time, does ANYBODY get grades anymore??

Our graduation rate is pretty high.

 

[smith5753]

I’m starting to think this may happen to our football program 😆

Yeah........although these days I`m not exactly sure what that signifies as far as academic achievement is concerned.

Played high school ball with him, he's a great kid. Really miss those days.

 

[rtr90]

so if 50 players transfer out .. u are still limited to 25 schol limit per year?

i guess Downs schol becomes available for next 3 years .. is that right?

I miss his attitude.

I went to college in the 1980s. In my opinion, and I worked in secondary education for many years, what was considered C work back then is A work now. I've seen the poor work of many students. You can't get them to turn in anything on time. I've taught some post secondary, too. Same thing. And then they question why their grade was so low or what can they do to make up work (after grades go out). What work most turn in is not even 50% effort. So glad I'm not in it anymore.

No - 25 + portal loss.

- still have the maximum 85 scholarships available so yes anyone who leaves won’t count toward that number any more.
