Lil Tua now in transfer portal

[Damiencane86]

Chance for Mario to learn his lesson here: try to get Salter and give a firm decision date (and a very soon one). If he doesn't commit immediately move to Taulia. That process should be enough time to get word on Taulia waiver.

The OSU guy already got his waiver. The first decision should not wait until August. If the first decision is denied, then the appeal and potential lawsuit would be out there for a while.

Then just like the other lawsuit, you file and injunction and it ties the NCAA's hands

Considering the way courts have ruled recently, the NCAA has no chance. They are losing more often than the Gators

 

[GrozDozer]

Is the big 10 passing leader really that much better of a QB than a guy who had the yips and threw 13 interceptions in 4 games???

Great question SIDSCane

With the exception of Devontez Walker and Darrell Jackson (both more than 1 transfer and not graduates) the NCAA seems to be somewhat liberal with granting waivers

I expect this to be our portal QB

 

[hurricaneman]

I watched the Michigan and Penn State games, he played really well actually. Their O-line is absolute garbage. His arm strength is an issue. But I think if Miami landed him he/we would be perfectly fine.

Penn State, Michigan, and Ohio State all ranked inside the top 10 in passing defense and he did what he had to do. They were absolutely in the Michigan game and his mistakes came from pressures and sacks.

Possible that before seeking a waiver he had to first enter or be in the portal.

The kid from Oklahoma State who just got another year was in the same class as Trevor Lawerence.

 

[passitback]

A lot of interceptions, is he really an upgrade?? He is also small at 5’10 I’m all for him to compete but I dont think he is a game changer.

Over TVD, yup. 100%

Over anyone on our roster / coming in next season, absolutely. 100%

His height isn't an issue; it isn't hindering his production at this level.

Like the poster above stated, he is the ALL TIME B!G passing yardage leader. While his stats (height) don't "project well" for kids at this level, he is clearly an exception, and certainly not the rule

If he is a lock to get the waiver, I'll take that kid in a NY minute and tell Ward to **** off, respectfully.

 

[SIBCanes]

No way he's only 5'10. He's taller than Tua.

Tua is 6’1”..nfl doesn’t bull**** height and weight like VT and FSPoo. His brother is about 6’0”. They’re close as I met both of them together at a charity event last year.

Flip side would be, you can't enter the portal unless you have eligibility remaining (you can't go anywhere)

[ADELPHI]

He’s a gamer type. He’ll excel behind our O-line. When the pocket breaks down, he doesn’t have a panic attack and can escape while keeping his eyes downfield. He’s an upgrade without a doubt!

 

[GojiraCane]

Followed by the death penalty

Still remember my vacation in August 2011. Turned on ESPN at the hotel in Florida and saw the breaking news about Miami. After reading the initial hubalaloo about it, I mentioned to my wife that Miami might get the death penalty.

My young son - who liked the Hurricanes - was horrified, and asked, "They're going to kill the players?!"

 

[Ziggy]

He's a very solid college QB. I would take him in a second. He set records at Maryland with a poor offensive line and average play makers. When he played OSU this past year, he was better than McCord and looked like he belonged. He should be high on the list if not plan A at this point.

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

- Commits to Miami
- Granted waiver by NCAA
- NCAA "reviews" waiver during Fall camp
- NCAA rescinds waiver August 15th, TT ruled ineligible

That sound about right?

They’ll wait until we are 3-0 and he has 12 TD and 0 INTs

 

[chris2183l]

I don’t think he enters without having an idea. He was supposed to be meeting with the ncaa

Is the basis that he should be eligible for a redshirt from his first season at Bama? Looking at his stat line he played in 5 games for Bama but only attempted 12 passes. Did he just come in and hand the ball off the whole time. Def seems like a wasted redshirt season for him
