Hearing some rumors on two football grad transfers one WR and possibly one QB. PJ and Rosebowl seems to be very quiet on the subject. What say you??

Why in the hell would we want a QB grad transfer?
There was talk that Texas Tech QB Davis Webb had mentioned us as talking to him but I think that was more him than us. He doesn't fit our offense at all & I don't see the need for a grad transfer QB unless Deshawn Watson is graduating this summer & wants to come over.
Concerning the WR, Germane Hopper from Clemson was a name I had heard about a month or so but not sure how serious that is either or if it's someone else.
I actually saw this article on ESPN the other day and thought it was weird too
http://espn.go.com/college-football/...tment-transfer
"Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre said he's confident that former Texas Tech quarterback Davis Webb will keep his commitment to the Buffaloes and join the team as a graduate transfer.
"I talk to Davis Webb basically every day," MacIntyre said Tuesday. "Almost every night. He's told me every time he's definitely coming to Colorado. I don't have any other reason to think why he wouldn't."
Webb, who threw 46 touchdowns over three seasons with Texas Tech, has reportedly been in talks with California, Auburn and Mississippi State. He has already signed a financial aid agreement with Colorado, but the rules allow him to continue to be recruited by other programs.
MacIntyre said that doesn't sit well with him.
"I just don't like the rule," MacIntyre said. "He signed with us. He signed a financial aid agreement. And then everybody else can still recruit him ... and try to manipulate him, which I do not agree with. I think that's wrong. But that's the way the rule is. But I believe he'll still be here at Colorado."
I'd take him if he wants to come hell why not
A big WR would seem to be the priority on a grad transfer if we can get one moreso than a QB.

Are we still talking to Epps? With our need for size seems like he is worth the risk unless we move Robertson from TE to WR
Agreed. We're going to be at least 5 or 6 schollies short of a full 85 anyways going into next season. No reason not to take the QB if its just a one year deal. Not like we can give the spot to anyone else.Quote:
