Zero surprise. And honestly, it doesn't even matter.

I think he can take the coaches with him since winning half the games in the fall is hard to see.

The NCAA is now a comedy show. It almost seems like there is no limit to the number of years you can play, the number of times you can transfer, the time frame for being able to enter the portal......
Do any of these athletes even have to have a grade point average to maintain, a number of credit hours, attend class....? Who keeps track?
What are these guys ultimately looking for? Obviously not a college degree.

Cooper is about Cooper. That's fine. He wanted every carry. He wanted Kelly to be the QB going forward (not happening) He probably wanted more NIL. We can't get into bidding wars. If he can find something better elsewhere, fine. (I do think there ought to be some sort of financial penalty for players who bail on a program right after getting NIL to play in that program) Coaches contracts often have financial penalties/obligations f they change jobs or get fired, so why not make players have contracts with certain language in it too? If they want the ability to be free agents and find better deals they should have to have contracts to go with that. If they unionize, be careful what they wish for. Dues? Taxes?

I wonder if the other RBs regret transferring now.

That tweet seems a little pissed off.

If they want the ability to be free agents and find better deals they should have to have contracts to go with that. If they unionize, be careful what they wish for. Dues? Taxes? That's all true in term so of the impacts of the NCAA and NIL. But it shouldn't distract from the fact that it's still on Neu though. He gave Cooper everything he wanted but in the end cast his lot with a player who was as about as me-only as they come, gave half effort in practice and was never penalized for his behavior. Kid thought he was damn near running the program. As the saying goes, when people show who you are believe them. They put out feelers to see if one of the transferring RB's would return but he told them he would rather drop down a level than return to play where they continually rewarded Cooper. Like QB mismanagement and the endless Lynch regurgitation, this is just another example why this guy needs to go. But as I've said on this board before, he's a helluva politician and he uses those skills to keep his job and seems not to be bothered by the 39% career winning percentage staring back at him from the mirror. |

Looks like Coll withdrew from the portal.
Maybe Pemberton will do so as well. He hasn't been picked up.

unconfirmed but Ill say it seems if one wanted to assume that there were more to the story that assumption would be accurate. As far as details those assuming have not assumed any further

If the o-line is decent we should have a respectable running game. We've got good young backs on the roster. Not to beat a dead horse but we need to be able to throw the ball so we aren't one dimensional.
