2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

[The Earl of Texas 3214]

Casey did all he could for us, props to him. No point to stay though - Ewers should be and will be starter right away and we should and will stick with him. 
 

Go do your thing Casey, the real ones won’t forget what you gave to this program. 

X’s Mom is right.

Correct. But Don’t forget about early entrants. Some of those enrolling early will be counted against last year. And that number is not easily identifiable because some of those from last year counted against the year before, etc. etc.

Spoiler alert — I’m gonna talk about the numbers. If your vagina can’t take that, move on…

 

On the LHN signing day special one of the talking heads mentioned Sark said they could take ‘up to 36’ this year. Obviously greyshirts and the like change  that total, but I took that to mean our 25 plus our 7 transfer exceptions (no problem there lol) which would back into 4 additional from the early enrollee group….

He didn't portal.  Michigan let him out of his letter of intent.  He never enrolled there.

On potential WR moves:

- Bama/LSU 247 boards thinks likelihood of Boutte leaving has gone down

- Chatter on Bama 247, of Josh Downs from UNC potentially entering the portal.  This guy has crazy stats;  almost 100 catches and 1,300 yads.  (He's 5-10, but I don't think Sark would care about any overlap w/ Worthy's skillset/physique, if there was any mutual interest.)

- Downs' brother Caleb is a 5 star DB in the 23 class.  The whole world - including Texas - has offered.

- Even assuming they lose Metchie and Williams, Bama has a crazy WR roster.  IIRC, 4 top 100 receivers in the 21 class, and 3 top 150 in this class.  (And several, including Preston, are in the top 50 - 75.)  Hopefully that works in our favor, if anything materializes.

- No idea of interest, if Downs actually enters the portal.

Stupid useless beta QBs hold the ball too long waiting for WRs to get open. Omega chad Thompson just throws it whether why are open or triple covered. He will be missed.

 

(just like most of his passes to wide open non-stationary targets).

Josh Downs would be a terrific pick up at WR. He must not like who UNC has coming in after Sam Howell, because it’s not like they weren’t feeding him the ball this year.

[Snake Diggity 4714]

Current portal wishlist is a starting caliber WR, LB, and DB.  If Card leaves we will need a backup QB.  Depending on what the staff thinks of the remaining in house options we may need a TE.  Could probably stand to add depth at DB and WR.  No star player who wants to come here should be turned away except at RB and QB.

[billfromlaketravis 11824]

Card allegedly wants to stick around to graduate from McCombs.  
 

I’d say WR and LB are the most glaring needs.

Mims, Fetui, Watts, and Young would be a dope haul and address all the remaining needs.

Who is Young? Besides your guys - NC wide receiver, TCU wide receiver (QJ), some all american TE, some all american LB and some all american OL. In total, 2 wide receivers - a speedster and an all purpose, 1 TE, 1 DE, 1 LB, 1 OL, and 1 DB. That plus Mathews/Perkins would pretty much complete the team.

It feels like Texas will probably miss on Matthews and almost certainly miss on Perkins. Is LTG a hybrid safety?

With your list we would still have a glaring weakness at LB assuming Fetui is a DE and non-strengths at TE and WR. Mims would be great but I still think we would need QJ or Boutte or the NC wide receiver. And I don't know about relying on a couple of freshmen OL.

We don’t just get the first pick of every transfer. 

[Jimbob 424]

Maybe we can get Dr Ueckert who makes the brainvault mouth guard to invent a full body guard for JW.  That would help our WR room and free up one spot of dire need.  
 

College footballs funny how quickly things change, 2 years ago we were fucked at RB and WR looked like our best position group.  Assume next year going to be a big one for RB recruiting

Of course you can always want more.  Like I said, no star player in the portal should be ignored by Texas except at RB and QB.  
 

Banks and Campbell are more than good enough to play early.  Add those to Angilau, Majors, Karic, Jones, Connor, and 4 other 4 star freshmen and they’re bound to be able to put together a very good OL.  Adding a stud would be a luxury.

Same at WR.  A starting 3 of Worthy, Whittington, and Mims with a 2nd string of Washington, Thompson, and Dixon is solid.  Adding another good experienced WR would be great but not a necessity to field a good team.

I have faith in them developing the existing TE into a viable unit.

I would put Fetui at LB.

Don’t kid yourself by thinking we have any chance with Boutte. Better chance we play against him next year when Alabama comes to town.

If the instability of the coaching market and its impact on recruiting jas benefited Texas,  it has helped Bama doubly so. The big dog can eat. And theres very little stopping him.

It’s Oregon… the scene will stay close to the same if they want to keep the image they have been pushing now through what, 3,4? coaching staffs now. It will be some form of wide open scheme that fits the Oregon speed and excitement style.
