Greg Garmon

[2Focusd804]

ESPN Insider rumour mill is reporting that Iowa Freshman RB Greg Garmon is transferring from Iowa and mayb looking at Miami (Iowa, Miami, and Penn st were his finalist before picking Iowa) has anybody heard anything about him looking at Miami. I cant find anything confirming on other sites

No clue, but I'm not interested.

Wasn't he arrested this past year? Sounds like we dodged a bullet.

Yea I think it was weed possession

Must of heard about Finnie and figured we had at least one opening for a goon.

Better than anyone on our roster not named Duke imo...

Pass.

pass

This guy isn't going transfer so that he can ride shotgun on the bench behind Duke. That should end any conversation on him transfering here.

Even if he transfers, he would have to sit out a year. We still end up short a back for 2013.

looked pretty talented coming out of high school 6'2 195 with 4.4 speed.

couldnt he use a redshirt year to avoid sitting out or no?

It amazes me that these kids all pass on Miami on signing day and then the next year they want to transfer in. Had your shot and passed it up.

He would use his redshirt year while sitting out, it wouldn't get him out of having to sit out a year. So basically if he did transfer here, he would come in as a true sophomore. The year he sits out would be his redshirt year, so he would be able to play for us as a redshirt-sophomore. Make sense?

Im not sure if he used his redshirt at Iowa or not, but he would still have to sit out even if he used it here. Its mandated unless you are a grad student or you are moving within 100 miles of your home town.

South fla is loaded with elite backs. No thanks. Should have came when he had the chance.

 

[Core Values]

wasn't Miami recruiting him as a S and not RB

That's what I seem to remember. I also remember after he committed, him saying Iowa produces the best NFL players. I'm of the opinion he needs to live up to that claim.

ok, so u can use the redshirt to save u a year of eligibility but u still have to sit out a year. thanks for clearing that up for me, i was always a little confused about how that works
