CDM Era: Transfer Portal and Recruits Thread

Every player is different obviously. I'm hoping these retreads from the SEC will come in here with a chip on their shoulder and be motivated. They have all been in big time strength and conditioning program for several years and they have the tools. Some will go balls out and some will not. I'm hoping most of them will have pride in themselves and want to prove what they can do.
A lot of these SEC commits remind me of Rayshad Jackson, who we got out of Florida. He definitely stood out with a bigger body than the rest of our guys. He produced as well.

Now we have multiple dudes coming in with SEC and other P-4 size and strength. I think we’re going to be in really good shape come fall.

Schools transferred in from = A
Actual production from recruits coming in = D

Mullen and staff have a big developing job. Was hoping for more plug & play guys with actual #s who'd want to seek playing time at a program capable of a playoff spot. Maybe those come in the Spring portal.
I was kind of hoping for more of a mix anyway. But they did get some good high ceiling prospects especially at the WR spot. But would prefer a few more guys that put up some numbers but want more PT.

This is a good point.
I expect to see some movement in bith directs after spring.

Players will see their pecking order and some will change their minds. In fact I halfway expect one of our new QBs leaves after spring

I actually think it's more of guys no longer waiting for "their turn" like they used to where they'd sit for a few seasons behind someone at a SEC school. 4 star guys are transferring to schools where they can be that guy vs just another recruit.
We offer alot of playing time with a possible CFP team. It's an opportunity for them to play and that's why we're landing alot of P4 talent

New D Tackle

Except Woodard came here as a junior so a perfect example of someone to take a chance on. Catalon also had two years' eligibility left. The ones I am less excited about are the ones who have already played 4 years. But that doesn't mean they aren't worth taking a chance on. We have signed a number of guys with only a year left so I am sure some of them will pop.
De Jesus also only had one year left until the courts recently gave him another year.

Do you remember that one play against Syracuse?

As they should have. That was brutal. I know I'm a fan, so I'm biased, but I like to believe that I can look at things fairly objectively also. UNLV was on the wrong side of pretty much all of the bad calls that game.
One of the pi calls in the end zone was right though. The replay didn’t show it, but our guy had contact through most of it. Other than that, some of those other big calls were questionable. The late hit out of bounds, and the roughing the passer were brutal.

Do you remember that one play against Syracuse?

The play where one of the Reb receiver pretend he is sub out but stood in bound and the ref call an illegal formation against UNLV even UNLV have only 11 players on the field? Those Syracuse's refs are something else or are they that stupid? Here is more stuffs that a little bit beyond the refs seen before....

I have a buddy that is an ACC ref, he told me that crew got graded very poorly for that game.
