    Kid has some talent, wish we could have figured it out.
    Yea we unfortunately didn't have a choice. We needed a perception win and we had to overpay to do it. Lebby really didn't want to do it. The rumor has always been he took one look at him and told Bumphis we were wasting our time with him at WR. He was a S.

    We also had 24 WR types on this year's roster and didn't even have a needed third WR step up. Someone's evaluation and recruiting has been bad. You can also add the OL and DL groups this past year.

    And the reason that we let Bumphis go becomes more and more clear.........

    That's his position and out of the 4 guys we've had produce in Lebby's offense(Craver, Coleman, Thompson, and Evans), Bumphis has been responsible for MAYBE 1 of them. And Craver didn't really have anywhere to go.

    That's a lie. Bumphis can not extend an offer to a player, Lebby does. So if someone missed on the evaluation it's Lebby.

    Discussed and extending offers are two separate things. He does not have the autonomy to offer ANY players. Only the head coach can authorize an offer. Bumphis is a worker bee. All recruiters suggests the head coaches also evaluate and the head coach gives the ok.

    Wonderful news! FINALLY!

    We recruited him out of HS so that's where the original interest is. He's 6'2 260 and has good bend off the edge. I think he's a guy we'd definitely take. Florida, OM, and Michigan all are early suitors for him.

    I truly believe that close to 30% of all rosters will be hitting the portal. Its so screwed up right now.

    I could see him going to somewhere that runs the type of offense he needs. I could see Florida being an option. I could also see him going back to GA and going to Ga Southern or Ga State.
