2025/26 Transfer Portal Thread

[Sandman Vol]

Utley is 270 and Campbell is 284

Man we need bigger bodies inside

We won’t, but getting green/etta from the portal would make me feel really good about the dline with what we already have.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I implore you guys to name one season where 80% of our transfer players didn't immediately contribute and elevate our team. Please. Go ahead. And we have twice as many transfers this year as the others. How we have this conversation every year is so annoying.

They never learn.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Well at least Bishop won't have to worry about losing first string.

Not many backs in the country could knock him to 2nd string.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Doesn’t matter Ethan Davis will be the QB’s biggest friend next year

Opposite side as the blocker on 2 TE sets along with Brame.

 

[chavisut]

We have our strength coach. Large investment, will be great for us

Moffit?

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Me too. Everyone knew Merk was gone. He should've gotten reps.

I wish we got him more experience this year

I wanted him to play the MCB.

 

[Gilbert]

You're underestimating how good G Mac is.

Nobody knows how good or not he is at this point. He could step right in and kill it or not be ready.

It’s a big risk starting him with zero experience versus a proven guy in the portal. Obviously hope it works out well.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

He never was

He's not an NFL back. There were some to be had.

 

[D-Vols]

Hobbs is not 300 lol

Roster says 290, that’s close

This guy plugged in?

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

This guy plugged in?

yes

I don’t give a damn if he’s a nfl back, when he performs better in college than these “nfl” backs. Averaging 6 yards a carry isn’t to shabby for a returning junior

 

[swchandler1988]

Hobbs constantly gets destroyed against the run


thats just the truth.

He was also hurt all season

His film looks better than Nico's and he got us to the playoffs.

Yeah let’s have nfl back discussions in nfl thread where nobody really gives a flip.

He definitely weighs less than 290 lol

Sensible statement

Obviously such things will not be tolerated

No soup for you

Good thing this is college football.

Maybe i'm late to this party but...

I think when the cannon/bombs go off four times in roughly as many hours, you get to boom whenever.

So how is GMac supposed to get this “experience” if he’s not going to play b/c we brought in a one-year starter?

Im fine with bringing in a QB that that doesn’t expect to start, but I don’t understand why so many are opposed to starting the QB we’ve recruited and has been in this system for two years.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

We missed Sampson this year.

The staff knows what they got. And they seem content to roll with him. There’s no point in recruiting HS QBs if you have no intent to ever give them a shot. Feels like they were good with Leavitt (possibly best QB in college, if healthy) or Gmac.

 

[zeppelin128]

Call me crazy, but I think the guys who have stayed should be rewarded for their hard work and loyalty with playing time. Y'all act like we have no quality talent coming back.

Crazy

Please be the guy from Indiana!
