Played 15 games past two years. Guess he wasn't gonna start and wants a new gig. Are we still looking or did Buford, Flax, Goodwin, et al do enough in the spring that we'll sit tight?

Stoops told the spring game crew that the team was looking to add a DB and an OT. This might be a money deal with the ATM player though, oh Jimbo probably blew his budget on the 21' recruits.

Been there 3 years, not sure he's a grad transfer. Idk how much he played or how well He just entered the portal so prob can't transfer in the conference
Why? People have been transferring right and left in conference the last few years and not sitting out a year. What is different in this case?

New SEC rule. Have to enter portal before Feb 1 to transfer intra conference & play that season. Normal portal deadline is May 1 for leaving SEC or entering SEC.

That's why no SEC teams are interested in the 2 5* o linemen who left Georgia this week.

The C that left UGA, Clay Webb is on the small side. He was a 5 star recruit but undersized and not a SEC or even P5 OL

It’s May 1st.
 
The deadline is May 1st. So the pieces will begin to fall soon for in conference players.
Spam the thread all you want, doesn't change the facts of the SEC Feb 1 rule that you are uneducated and uninformed about

This kid goes to an SEC school he sits out 2022, period

Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Get over yourself.
 
Maybe with the class Jimbo has coming in, he had to take a pay cut ?
Who knows if that is the reason, but it is a fascinating aspect of NIL evolving to straight out buying recruiting classes.

What about their teammates already there, who have been there for yrs working hard playing hard? A veteran Texas player last week put yoynger teammates on blast, saying they only care about partying with their new money, don't want to work to earn bug future money as successful NFL players.

I think locker room drama about NIL money is inevitable.

I kinda wondered about that last year when the Wandale and Levis NIL deals were being discussed. I didn’t see anything about returning star Crod . I wondered what he thought about it .

Coach Stoops is currently looking for one OT and one CB from the transfer portal. He recently confirmed this during a televised interview on the SEC Channel. By my quick count, those two additions would give us 85 scholarship players prior to our own spring attrition.

I'm guessing both the OT and CB will outside the SEC so that they can play this year, wouldn't you think?
 
I don’t think this is the OT we would be looking for anyways. He came in as DL and only moved over to OL last year. He played in 4 or 5 games but wasn’t a starter
 
Remember how hard it was to get Gatewood eligible?

Anybody in the SEC trying to get an SEC transfer who entered the portal after Feb 1 eligible will experience the same uncertainty and drama. They just set the Feb 1 deadline for a reason, I doubt they will backtrack in the 1st yr and hand out waivers like candy.

No. I think Stoops is looking at transfers from inside and outside the conference. If he takes an inside transfer, he will apply for a waiver or take a player eligible to play immediately. There are a number of possibilities.

Rosenthal started out as a DL too. But he was like a two year starter at OT before he transferred here.
