'26 TX ATH Legend Bey

[CAVPUT]

Deny his request imo lol

Nah, we've seen that movie before. Let the kid go.

 

[CAVPUT]

I suggest we change thread title to “Legend Bye”

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Yep. I see zero advantages in keeping him any longer.

True. No matter if he signed under pressure from family or someone signed for him, it's clear he doesn't want to be in Knoxville. Take the high road and let the kid go where his heart is.

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

It was -18 wind chill here yesterday. Hope he's ready!

 

[Legion of Doom]

Nope not letting this kid go when he was one that called them to sign. Tell the kid give it a year and then he can go wherever.

you don’t want players in the locker room who don’t want to be there. Ever.

 

[KPT_VFL]

I bet his career is very unproductive.

 

[YankeeVol]

Grant the release and then file a motion with the NCAA for tampering on Ohio St. They aren’t allowed to talk to a player who is currently signed with another team.

It won't matter, but sure

 

[YankeeVol]

Doesn't mean you have to let him near the team.

Is it petty, absolutely.

Would I be ok with it? Absolutely.

 

[YankeeVol]

I can’t lie. Hard to feel a lot of good will toward this kid after this saga. Kinda hope he gets buried on the depth chart and ends up at Eastern Michigan or something.

I was thinking Youngstown State

PLEASE, understand there is a big difference in having him show up at UT and providing him a release on his preferred timetable.

It does APPEAR that we are totally clean in this deal or he would have already leveraged a release on demand. If true we should provide a tactical release. Like having access to his phone records from the moment the document was provided to UT and the endpoint of our choosing. That should be fun! Eliminate all conjecture possible.

Any smart folks know what his options are if we provide the release after the last day of late (NSD) period?

 

[UTK]

Why so he can be a cancer for the team?

No because I’m just so heartbroken

 

[UTK]

Nah, we've seen that movie before. Let the kid go.

It’s a joke. But I would take my time getting around to signing the papers because he chose to be a diva for a bit before requesting the release.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Why keep him? I wouldn't release him if he's gotten money unless he repaid it otherwise let the kid go. We don't need him. He's not worth the trouble.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Bye Legend. We don't care.

 

[JCVol00]

I bet his career is very unproductive.

I’ll bet he’ll end up transferring to 3-4 different teams

 

[cncchris33]

All I know is this kid better freaking love Columbus and tOSU because if he even thinks about entering the portal at any point after this. VolTwitter has long memories and receipts in hand.

So VolTwitter is gonna post mean twits at him? And why would he care? Do people really take this social media stuff seriously? Just typed words, no? Seriously, I just don't understand it.

 

[floridavol25]

I’m all for giving him his release if he wants to go but the fact that multiple articles have said Ohio state has been working hard to flip him back .. how is that not blatant tampering ?

 

[volamite86]

When he committed to us originally Hubbs talked about him on the podcast. Caught a little heat for his comments, but said he’s either going to be a generational player or you’ll never hear from him again. Said he doesn’t have a true position. Of course you could say that about most recruits, as far as generational or being a bust.

I suppose Heupel could file a complaint? With who? And don't we kinda live in glass houses if what the Illinois qb has posted recently about our...uh...not tampering with him last year. Might wanna just let this one pass by quietly.

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

Don’t remember the last time we had a kid go through this much trouble to make sure he doesn’t play here? He must really, really not want to be here for whatever reason. What a strange situation.

Nah. Boo Carter set that bar way, way higher.

He at least gave us a decent freshman year. Better to get it out of the way now though I guess.
