Re: Parker McLeod has found a home at Western Kentucky
Let's see if I got this right.
Jimmy Barnes - Weber State & Arizona State (Backup at Weber State & never took a snap at ASU)
Nick Fanuzzi - Rice (Decent starter for 3 years at Rice)
Star Jackson - Georgia State (backup at GSU before quitting football)
Phillip Sims - Virginia & Winston Salem State (backup at UVA & probable starter at WSSU this season)
Phillip Ely - Toledo (Battling for a starting spot for 2014)
Luke Del Rio - Oregon State (Ruled eligible to play in 2014, but will be a backup, no one is unseating Manion this year)
Parker McCleod - Western Kentucky (Must sit out 2014)
So 7 transfers? Sounds bad but lets look at the stats. Take out Fanuzzi and here are the career stats for all of our QB transfers combined:
142-280 (50.7% completion percentage) 1,602 yards, 11 TD & 9 INT.
These guys just seem to flounder once they leave our system. Some of these guys left on bad terms, but I really hope Sims, Ely, Del Rio & McCleod end up with doing well for themselves despite what history has shown.
