Pointer coming back

RTQ must have stepped up, as Pointer would have had opportunities elsewhere I would think.

I think we offered some short guy from Vermont, PM @80deacon for the deets.

Shade over 5'7" isn't he?

 

[CONeill]

Hmm, I'm not sure I'm following. I'm guessing there is some team out there that desperately needs a long snapper (I'm guessing at a lower level given he got benched for a walk-on) that might be willing to use a scholarship on him.

He had his four years here and I can guarantee he did not have the option to return to Wake.

The long snapper market is weird, man. It is almost wholly reliant on snap times, since anybody who makes it to the Division I level is going to have around the same accuracy. Wouldn't be shocking to see him at another P5.

You can't go to a team your brothers are playing against next year can you........oh wait 🖕

Pointer coming back

Now there is a spot of good news!

 

[wakelaw13]

I checked all the recent threads and didn't see any positive football scoop.

check the transfer portal thread?

 

[JKW385]

I can deal with Grimes going to State- couldn't deal with him going to Duke or suiting up for the Tarholes.

 

[IamThunderbolt]

Yes, yes, yes, I love that kid!!!! Need somebody either on the roster to improve as much as he has or get a partner for him in the middle through the portal.

Ganious can come back for one more year, right?

Davis - Pointer - Ganious - Wayman is a pretty good front 4. Need depth.

I was thinking not, but if he could that would be good. He was solid and would be great to have another year.

@RollTheQuadNIL

Have any of the departures been influenced by NIL considerations at Wake or at other universities?

We haven't yet had a Hartman or Bothroyd situation yet. NIL considerations have not been the reason for any of the departures.

That's great to hear, thanks!

 

[IAppreciateIt]

i took a shot at assembling a depth chart on the spreadsheet (it's in the first post) and left some gaps where transfers might slot in. my wishlist is at seven incoming transfers which means we need to lose 8 more players. obviously some chicken and egg there, and i have no clue which freshmen might be ready to step up next year outside who played this year. (also not sure landing two OL starters via transfer is realistic)

What did Bothroyd get and did he have a decent year at OU?

 

[Deacsfan27]

25 tackles and 6 TFL on the year. No sacks, fumbles (forced or recovered), or INT's. 5 QB hits.
