Who's the WR, I think the LB was a WR earlier in college career, but we're bringing him in as a LB right?So, incoming OT, WR and LB?

Could care less if the transfers win the press conference. It won't matter if WF is 4-8 again next year.So we've got a 6th year QB coming off a rough year with Louisiana Tech, and 2 FBS transfers. While I'm hopeful that they are diamonds in the rough, they are not exactly the type of transfers the fanbase is going to get excited about. I'm thinking RTQ is putting the finishing touches on some big splash commits later this week!
So, I'm curious just who you think these "big splash" commits could be? Do you really think we are going to get any "big splash" commits as far as big or even semi known names, with all the competition in the portal and NIL? The best guys we've gotten through the portal and transfer have been guys that weren't a big splash when we signed them. Heck, the receiver from Tennessee Merrill, was probably a lot more known than most of our transfers and he couldn't even get on the field this year. Kobie Turner was an FCS transfer, how big a splash was he when he was signed? One of our best players on defense this past season was a transfer from NC A&T, don't know that he was a big splash as far as name go, but he sure could play. If by "big splash" you mean a "name" from a power 5 or good group of 5 team, then I hope you're not holding your breath. If we get a player from a P5 or even from some G5's, it's probably going to be somebody that either struggled there and we're hoping they can turn it around (see QB commit) or a player that hasn't seen the field much because they're playing behind better players and we hope they've got potential and just need a chance to show it. There are good players at all levels of college football, seems like every year during the senior all-star games there is at least one D2 or even D3 player that stands out when they get out there with the FBS players. For us, I think it's a matter of finding the right ones and getting them.So we've got a 6th year QB coming off a rough year with Louisiana Tech, and 2 FBS transfers.

Probably a bunch more guys hit the portal shortly after national signing day for HS kids. Dec. 20.Its still early. Lots of dominos to fall. Including players at other schools currently whose coach is about to recruit over them, and they say “fuck that” and hit the portal last second
Vert true, only what 15-20 percent of guys in the portal have committed somewhere at this point.Its still early. Lots of dominos to fall. Including players at other schools currently whose coach is about to recruit over them, and they say “fuck that” and hit the portal last second
Yes, we'll get some of those guys. But if they're being recruited over, there's no guarantee they'll contribute here either. Would love as well to score some major portal wins.Its still early.

Again, I'm curious as to what our definition of a "Big Splash" or "major portal win" would be? Serious question, not trying to be a smart ass at all.Yes, we'll get some of those guys.

College fb has gotten so crazy, I honestly got ready to google "Tennessee Merrill" to see what level of football this college played until I realized there was a comma missing.So, I'm curious just who you think these "big splash" commits could be?

Sorry, I can see how that was confusing.College fb has gotten so crazy, I honestly got ready to google "Tennessee Merrill" to see what level of football this college played until I realized there was a comma missing.
A P5 starter who was contributor on his previous team.Again, I'm curious as to what our definition of a "Big Splash" or "major portal win" would be? Serious question, not trying to be a smart ass at all.
How many people who fit that description are in the transfer portal in the first place?A P5 starter who was contributor on his previous team.
