MikeV73 Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Is he actually a graduate transfer as the caption above says, or does he sit a year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeLarry Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 I thought he sat out the spring to deal with academic issues...? So, when did he graduate? If he was having grade / academic problems, how is he going to get into a graduate program? Ooops, I forgot he is a football player and not a regular student...

MBHORNSFAN Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Makes room for another 2018 recruit... All about alignment... He was not a staff favorite.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tejasrulz Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Local news last night showed a list of all the lineman still on campus. Based on that list, I'd say we're OK. With all these players leaving this year, maybe Strong wasn't holding the players as accountable liked we all believed he was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard attrition with a new coaching staff rolling in. HOOKEM85 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevostuntdouble Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Sooooo... do we have any real idea of why he's leaving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tejasrulz Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Don't think the players leaving have anything to do with Strong. Standard attrition with a new coaching staff rolling in. It just seems the ones we have lost are "out of shape", "lazy", "not willing to work hard, etc. If that is true, wasn't Strong and company supposed to be correcting that "self entitlement" attitude from the Coach Brown days? I'm not a Strong hater at all, just wondering out loud. MikeV73 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Texas Golfer Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Sooooo... do we have any real idea of why he's leaving? He was having academic issues so he went ahead and graduated.

Daniel Seahorn Posted June 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Sooooo... do we have any real idea of why he's leaving? There's been chatter of him and the coaches not seeing eye to eye. Given that he was likely going to get snaps this year if he sticks around, then I bet there is truth to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will always be some bad apples and some guys that need a kick in the ass to do right and stay in shape.
