Matt Colburn is 6th in career rushing yards at Wake Forest with 2,528. He rushed for roughly 20% of his total career yards in 2 games.

If the coaches could somehow have convinced him he was playing Louisville every week...

How did we not offer Va OL Mason Wade, a Duke commit? He's 6'5", 295.

We should now if his commitment was under Elko.

 

[Colonel Angus]

Wade most likely to Clemson

Banks now has a Michigan offer:

Wade most likely to Clemson

Maybe not with a big push from our coaches. Wake more like Duke than Clemson.

Banks now has a Michigan offer:

Banks just improved his draft status by at least a round....

That dude HATED Louisville

Louisville pulled his scholarship wwwwaaaaayyyyy late right? That 2017 Louisville game was great coming out of the Wakey Leaks garbage the previous year. It's the only time I've seen Clawson run up a touchdown as we threw a deep ball with a minute left and up two scores already. Too bad it ended on a bad note because Dortch ruptured his screen on a TD stretch and didn't play another game in a Wake jersey.

 

[Strickland33]

That’s all you could come up with?

No but it was weird that you started talking about Alabama. I don’t care about Alabama.

I get that you’re a man of divided sports loyalties, but I’d prefer to talk about our Deacs.

So, if everybody staying suggests that everybody is on board with Clawson, then what do our high profile defections mean?

Well the 2018 season, uh, happened.

Seems about right I guess.

 

[Deacsfan27]

Figured he would land middle G5. Good for him. Hope he balls.

WF kept:

The best QB on the roster (which is kind of a "tallest midget" situation, but most were happy he stayed): Kern
Best OL with remaining eligibility: Gordon and Pettitbon
Best RB: Claiborne
Best Defensive player: Jasheen Davis
Best DT: Kevin Pointer

The receiver room was split: Morin, Greene (along with a lot young guys) stayed; Banks, Williams and Grimes left

Unless you have the time to survey every Power V roster for the quality of losses, hard to say how WF did in the high-profile transfer department, but anecdotally, it seems like WF's losses were in line or better than most schools. In this day and age, players transfer.

 

[Pilchard]

Marshall lost their starting QB to the portal. Chad Pennington's kid is starting their bowl game, and he has been horrid so far, as in 6 picks and 0 TDs. Should be a riveting competition between Griffis and Pennington.

Also, Marshall plays at Ohio State next year. If Mitch is able to secure the starting spot, that's going to be a tough one.

 

[warak]

Good luck to you young man!

 

[liveanddiedeac]

Good luck to you young man!

Seriously, I hope he does well there, will be pulling for him.

 

[Vegas Jethro]

Wade most likely to Clemson

Who are you referring to? I'm drawing a blank.
