Transfer Portal 2023-24, v2

[westide]

What about the other Mich St OL, Geno VanDeMark? JessN seemed to think we have a good chance.


VanDeMark is the one that some sites have reported Bama is interested in getting.

also heard tarvis reier indicate that we may have 3 spots available instead of 2. So maybe Jones plus two other guys. We will find out I guess.

I heard if the right portal guys want to come some of the late freshmen signees may be asked to greyshirt which would open another 1-2 spots.

Greyshirt. I hadn't heard that term for years.

I have slept since then. What exactly does that mean...?

Delayed enrollment until the next January I believe.

Oh yeah.

That would be a tough sell to an eighteen year old...🤔

If I remember correctly, that would only apply to guys who have not yet enrolled right? Once a guy is on campus, he already counts even if he doesn't play in the fall I think,

If true, that means the pool would be Williams (no way he's not coming), Carter (Edge), Riley (RB), Jefferson (WR), Scott (WR), Mboumaua (DL), Reese (ILB) and Lindsey (TE)

There were rumors even before Saban's retirement that Reese was a greyshirt candidate

I can see Reese and maybe Lindsey being greyshirt candidates. But thats it.

We want everyone else on campus getting experience and into the S&C program.

Hadn't heard that but I can see it. Feels like its been a while since we went the greyshirt route.

I think grayshirts can enroll as part-time students in the fall semester at any school (often JUCO). They go on scholarship and full-time in January and can participate with the team then (maybe after the end of fall semester with bowl eligible teams).

I would think that a grey shirt to this generation of players would be like asking them to be the Man in the Iron Mask.

Players have never liked greyshirting. That's not really new.

Jones commitment is now in question btw. Unfortunately so keep an eye out.

You're the second person to mention that in the last 30 minutes.

There was a tweet that got deleted. So hope for the best.
