don't look up other transfers from Texas and where they ended up. You won't like the results.

Thanks for heads up. I didn’t see where any of ours transferred to the schools I mentioned!

Im not sure i buy this. We already have this guy on our roster in Neyor. A big bodied downfield target coming off an injury.

Main difference is AD Mitchell is coming back from a high ankle sprain that didn't require surgery I believe. Neyor is coming back from an ACL tear. The recovery process is shorter and better than it was even 10 years ago, but not every guy comes back at the same speed. Counting Neyor towards the purpose of "Is our WR room good enough" is a bad idea imo

Thought he’d land somewhere better. Makes me feel better about the likelihood of him transferring somewhere and crushing it making us look dumb.

Really?  I'm surprised he went P5

Fuck you for not using the bathroom vent fan and leaving the door open upon departure.

It was one poster who said the B school thing and everyone ran with it.  @burdine

Yes my bad.  I heard it from a good student source.  I thought it was legit.  Mea culpa.

The players with the most potential fleeing Lit Station are finding homes in the SEC. This does not bode well for Jimbo Fisher.

 

Just losing depth, not impact players.

Don’t think it was an injury thing as much as he just disappeared a lot against better competition. You would also think he would be headed to the NFL and not the portal if he was that highly thought of. 

Its possible to be a highly productive college player but not have the measurables to be a draftable NFL player.  Maybe he thinks a little NIL money and college women are preferable to a year grinding out minimum salary in the NFL.

FWIW - here is how PFF graded him out compared to our ED's (using the vernacular PFF uses)

Hartman is much better than Card, makes sense why ND wasn’t an option. 
 

Makes ND a fun follow next year, I’ve been a fan of Hartman since his QB1 days.

Hartman to ND has been rumored for a while now.  Does that mean ND was tampering?

 

 

It’s all tampering

I think most teams that are active in the portal are tampering in one form or another

Some people are averse to prosperity.

To be fair he is a CRNA I think. That might be the absolute best paying job that has no sales or ownership hassle/risk associated with it and is a 40 hour a week type job that you don’t take home with you. Jobs like that where you can roll out of school to 200k more or less by your mid to late 20’s and be employable anywhere really are awesome. I get why he was pretty exited with his career.

Diamonte Tucker-Dorsey starter set.  Little guy (5'10" 200) who was productive in his first year starting.  3 years eligibility left.

you left off on call pay, back up call pay, third on call pay, ability to take over others shifts (to a certain extent), etc.

there are a ton of reasons to be excited to be a CRNA, and one of them is absolutely the mean wage (per BLS, Texas median CRNA wage is $197k)

it's a great gig if you can get it.

I have 2 girls and a boy. I’m pushing CRNA, Pilot and marrying well on them. They are all above average intelligence with none of them being super smart (like 120-130 IQ types). That job seems like it’s perfect for that kind of person. Great work life balance.

CRNA’s have one of the best jobs (salary vs workload) in medicine.

Just curious, are you able to show his game-by-game grades for this year? A lot of his production seemed to come in non-conference play. Would be interested in seeing the trend line as the season went on.

How is he ever going to grip the ball in those big 10 venues in November.  Dude should have looked ACC.  

In all seriousness, I feel like NC State (losing O’ Leary), Wake Forest (losing Hartman), and UVA (losing Armstrong) would’ve been good options. And more of a culture fit to a kid from Lake Travis than the frozen tundra of the BIG.

Yeah UVA seems ideal.

Stanford actually landed a transfer - wonder if they've made that process easier or if he just has awesome grades.

 

From Harvard on the Tennessee River to Stanford seems like a smooth cultural and educational transition.
