On to the Transfer Portal....

[Midlo Cane Fan]

There seems to be a lot of highly ranked players in the portal right now. Maybe got recruited over and pushed out (like at LSU), or passed up on the roster & looking for PT. Might be able to snag a few decent players.

You mean middle school kids aren’t in the portal???

not yet NCAA to vote in 2023 for it along with actually paying players

 

[SSCane]

If I was a transfer I’d visit here run the dinner bill up like a ************ then tell every single coach to **** themselves. Especially Manny, Enos, Baker, Panda, Barry, and Rumph.

You mean like most south Florida HS recruits. lol

 

[SSCane]

As ****** as we were this year, I think a couple decent contributors and a scheme adjustment and we could come out significantly better next year due to how little we lose from this year's roster, and the maturity of an extremely young O Line.

Too bad I won't believe that is happening until I see it.

Sure, we have the roster to be better than 4-4 in ACC and 6-6 overall, but this staff has shown they can lose to anyone and they will regularly.
When you lose to FIU like we did, you know it's not going to me much better next season, unless there is major changes to staff. I don't care who we sign, we are not getting much better til we get the right coaches in place and change our scheme on offense.

 

[GladeCane]

valid... but a kicker?!?!? could be worth 1 or 2 games

Maybe the most important portal p/u will be a kicker. Only needed for one year with our 2021 kicker committed.

Only kids who proved his worth was Osborn and Hedley. The rest had minimal impact (Bolden) or none at all (Kennedy, Martin, Tate). With the amount of chest bumping that was going on last off-season about the portal I just don't see it.

By the time it is all said and done I think Bolden and Jlean Phillips will be worth their schollys and the JAGS you have in ( ) above. I think they are both first team all ACC type talents and will actually play to their abilities. Just me being optimistic I suppose.

Well good thing your not a portal transfer the staff wants

****, i was just happy to find the ignore button for him

 

[BisCane]

I think we have 7 spots. 18 signed today.

Some kids aren't signing until later

 

[CanessGang]

I would really like the staff to go after Shorter from Penn State. We could really use a taller receiver.

 

[Cajuncane]

I’m hoping this portal sucks these coaches into it’s black hole and we never see or hear from them again.

would be the best way the portal could help us..

2020 Transfer Portal
Who are we going after? I would love a QB and a few bodies on the Oline with another Oline coach picking the players...

According to 246, these are some of the OL that UM is looking at, Stanford offensive lineman Devery Hamilton is believed to be someone of interest. Same with Texas A&M offensive lineman Kellen Diesch and West Virginia offensive lineman Josh Sills. They are looking to add 1 grad transfer, preferably OT. They are still trying to decide if they want to add a transfer qb.

 

[twes.305]

Every commit has signed to UM besides Moise, and that is because he has grade issues.

Slapd!ck

Are coaches available in the portal? Asking for a friend.

We already have on from El Portal

You’re right. We should adjust our expectations. For me I feel if a kid is riding the bench at a p5 school I don’t expect him to kill it here or if a kid battled injuries I would expect the same but hope for the best. We got quite a few transfers last year but unrealistically expected all of them to ball. I personally feel like we can’t depend on the portal so heavily this year.

There will be some kids that go the portal route because they need a fresh start. Look at Cager and what he did at Georgia. Theres got to be some O-line men that didn't like the situation or there position coach and want a fresh start. I read that 2 kids entered the portal from Stanford and they both started at some point in there careers. Stanford usually produces good O-line men so maybe they are worth looking at.
