Update on Transfer DE's

[Cuban-Cane]

So @Stefan Adams if we land Hill and Phillips, I assume Boykin and Bogle are still takes? That's some serious talent and depth on the defensive side of the ball if we land all four of them and amazing considering how bad our class was looking just a month ago. Unreal work by Manny and the staff to pick up the pieces and bring in such a premier transfer class to make up for the recruiting shortcomings of the prior regime.

Boykin is not a take any longer

I think Boykin lost his spot. Check his thread out. Looks like Bogle is being pushed to make a decision — commit or lose your spot.

Wilftlong just CB Boykin to Louisville so you’re probably right.

My daughter played three sports most of her teenage years, including all through high school and had multiple concussions. They suck. There is most definitely a protocol. Maybe Phillips had some residual affects from the second concussion - headache, light sensitivity, etc. Maybe his family was just being cautious given the heightened awareness of long term affects and made him shut it down. Could be a lot of reasons. I would think there will be extensive review of his medical history before any decision is made. We also don't know if there were any concussions in high school. Who knows if they were even documented - kids aren't always up front with coaches about stuff like that. Especially boys.

Sam Shields. Hopefully Phillips journey takes the same route.

Sam Shields. Hopefully Phillips journey takes the same route.

my understanding is with phillips it might have been more about chip kelley and the different defensive scheme than about injuries.

Diaz is no dummy like Richt was in these situations. If Bogle wanted in, he would already be in...at this point, he is jerking us around. And Diaz knows it. Only in SoFl would a stud DE, who just saw how our DEs eat like crazy in this aggressive scheme..look for all the reasons in the world NOT to want to come here. LOL.

(and no I don't think he got bags either. You don't drop bags off to a backup plan option like Bogle if you are Bama. In Bamas mind he should be glad they even still kept his number in their contacts)

The Portal has the ability to fix Kuls lazy *** recruiting in a matter of weeks. Bless you Portal.

 

[hoops156]

Surely both are a no-brainer?

1 is (hill)
idk bout phillips based on health but hes def a talent

 

[Storm]

We really are the free agent destination and Manny knows it

But it's not really like free agency. NFL only has to deal with roster spots. NCAA has the 25 per year limit. I love the moves for this year but I dont think it's sustainable, it will get hard to maintain a 85 man roster.

This can’t be legal... Is this guy dumb?!

That's just cashapp isn't it?

 

[CanesAreAble]

That's just cashapp isn't it?

It is, and I wonder if the NCAA is all over that.

 

[Ziggy]

I've wondered about the cash app as well myself. I've seen tons of college athletes tweet out there cash app handle. Is this the future of bag dropping?

Said he already transferred according to Wikipedia yesterday. I didn't know that wikipedia had insiders.
My answer is, YES PLEASE to both. Kid is/was a freak.

 

[HTXCane]

Exactly. If he doesn’t like Chip Kelly, he can just leave. No reason to say he’s retiring unless he felt he meant it.

He didn't say he was retiring. He said he was withdrawing from UCLA because of his injuries and taking time to heal. He thanked Jim Mora and that coaching staff by name but lumped Chip and his into everyone else. I think this is a kid that got frustrated with the injuries and was compounded by Chip Kelly not caring a lick about the defense.

Wikipedia is far from a verified source, why do people even post that on here?

People were so sure he retired. Good find.

smart move, looks like he's getting out ahead of that waiver thing. i assume he needs a waiver to play this year?

Agreed! Hence the disclaimer. Maybe he typed it in himself, is that possible?

It has been posted at least 3 times in the Hill thread alone.

Whoever keeps making those changes needs to give it a rest and the people who keep falling for it need to make sure their online girlfriend isn't a man from Bangladesh. They are the types who get Cat Fished.
