Grad Transfer Recruiting 2018

[CoolBreeze]

In the spirit of JustNeedMe8’s timely post…then there is this:

…any chance that Kayton Samuels, Kenny Bigelow, Ryan Fines, Pete Mokwuah, Marcus Griffin, Preston Gordon, Sean Adesanya, Brandon Tiassum, Jabril Robinson, Dylan Thompson, Sterling Johnson or any other D Lineman would like to compete for a Natty next year and possibly get recruited to the League?

There appears to be 3 or 4 DL that may be able to meaningful contribute.

What would the college football world say if Nick brought in 4 D Line Grad Transfers from the likes of Clemson, Ohio State, Illinois, etc and won another Natty back to back?

There would be an immediate call to rescind the grad transfer rule, but it would be a hoot!

Any defensive line coaches looking to transfer?

There's been some talk of a grad transfer QB. Saban all but said Alabama's getting a QB in his presser but couldn't "talk about it just yet."

 

[B1GTide]

Not sure why a grad transfer QB would come to Alabama with Jalen and Tua on the roster. But you never know what Saban might pull off.

Just a reminder he wasn't the recruiter for every DL target. Tosh was Brown's primary recruiter.

maybe a guy who knows he's not likely going on to the league, but wants a future in coaching and has the ability to be a reliable backup in a pinch. Where could a kid learn more about coaching than from Saban?

I get that, but I wouldn't give someone like that a scholarship. Save them for next year.

If it's a grad transfer with only one year left, we aren't losing anything. Or it could be a situation where the guy walks-on like the kicker from Temple.

yep - one year back up plan.

A QB, a DL or two or maybe an LB............I can live with that

CNS mentioned adding an experienced QB. Just wondering??? http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/22171404/keller-chryst-transferring-stanford

If a grad transfer is given a scholarship is it counted in the annual 25 allowed?

Maybe one that knows his future is not playing football but wants to get into coaching. See how the program works, have it for a resume, having CNS as a reference would carry weight in any industry but an endorsement in football IQ, tape breakdown, etc. would be invaluable.

Love to have Samuels/ the Cuse or Johnson/Clemson add some experienced depth to our interior DL.

Assuming we have the grant in aid to spend, that is.

AFAIK, yes...

 

[Tideflyer]

Weeellll.... sounds like we`re not done, perhaps. This will be interesting.

 

[bodiddle]

AFAIK, yes...

Thanks
