FOOTBALL MT Football offers transfer candidate......

I’m not gonna bash the young man for trying to move up to D1. But this is concerning because I don’t think our staff is capable of mining a “diamond in the rough” former basketball player turned WR. Gardner Webb went 3-9 his Soph year (his best statistically) in FCS. They got blown out by Monmouth this Spring in an abbreviated Covid season.

I hope he proves me wrong.

First thing I saw watching his film was that he will get several offers. Looks like they are coming. He has everything you want in a WR except big time speed. Reminds me A LOT of Windham but maybe even a little better.

There's nothing wrong with taking the better players from FCS Schools. FCS schools have tons of talent on their rosters. Division 2 and 3 are different stories, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with taking the cream of the crop from FCS schools.

I just don't see much speed. How's he gonna get separation?

“Raking in offers?”

Where are the UAB’s, Marshall’s, LaTech’s and USM’s??? The Florida schools or Texas schools?

Come on, man.

Fair enough. My point was he accumulated six offers yesterday...

He entered the portal one day ago and has six offers. I’d imagine more on the way..

He just announced his transfer. Give it a little time. He will have a long list of offers unless he commits soon.
 
Nothing wrong with this here at all. Looks like he can play. I’d rather have this guy than a JUCO cast off.
