Football Transfer Portal Thread
I figured with the season winding down it was time to get this thread wound back up again. Like last year, guys bolded will be guys that are officially in the portal and guys not bolded will be guys that I believe hop into the portal or that should be tamper targets for us. Italicized will be guys that we are in contact with/have visited. I will try to update it as much as I can like last year. I'll label the QBs differently because I think a lot of our movement at that position will be where we feel like Kamario is developmentally.
Like last year, if you have a player, just add him in the comments and I'll get him on the list. I'll get Scooba to pin this once the season is over.

He's added now. I still think he's ours, if we want him.

The only two categories that matter are OL & DL everything else is lagniappe.

Are these predictions? McClain is at Florida starting and Miller at Colorado is a starter.

Not necessarily predictions of if we would be after them. But there is instability at both of those programs and it feels like both could be gotten, especially McClain. He has no problem moving around.

With James Franklin coming in at VA Tech, do you really think these guys will enter the portal or are these guys probably being processed?

Those guys are entering the portal. And we need to go hard after a couple of them.

So nothing in italics yet ... hopefully soon we'll see some italics for DL and OL .
Hopefully Lebby has some targets
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

Well, the portal does not open for another month and a half so officially we can’t be making contact with anyone right now. I do imagine we will start to hear some names leak by Saturday or Sunday of next week, but as of now it is kind of just conjecture and guessing. I will try to work on it some more over the weekend just to see because I have not even added a lot of of the SEC guys who may be looking for a fresh start or reboot that were highly rated coming out of high school.

Mosley and Burnside both hit the portal today.
I was really hoping Burnside would stay and be a factor for us on defense.
-
I wonder if West Point native KD Daniels will enter the portal since there is a coaching change at Florida

Sucks I thought Stonka would be a stud at safety but he never saw the field this year after 2 years

There is smoke there but I would think he is going to wait and see what happens at OM with Lacy before making a move anywhere. He will not be a feature back here.
-
I have added a few players to the list as well as updated the outgoing players. There is some smoke around Daniel Harris from UGA early on.
-
Stuck.
May the dollars flow and we land the talent we badly need.

Remember the portal doesn't open officially till Jan 2.
We need to get our staff changes made in next couple of weeks and get guys like him back in the fold.

Yeah me too. Former player Kobe Jones had a rant on Twitter about it. Says he should have played this year but for whatever reasons he didn't. I know he is loaded with talent.. not sure why he never hit the field.

For the record they both played at the same high school. And I have noticed that alumni from that high school think that MSU should basically play guys that went there no matter what.
He doesn't seem very rational to be honest with you.

He may not be. I honestly don't even think I follow him. Somehow ended up running across his tweet and dove into it.
I figured if Burnside was good enough to play... he would play.
