Chaz Nimrod hits the portal

Yeah I mean I appreciate the fact that he was a vol or whatever, but we can’t sit around and act like he was a playmaker. Won’t be missed in the CFB playoff. Just my opinion. Guy couldn’t make plays. Reminded me of Jason Croom the way he could get open and still find a way not to catch the ball. Best of luck to him. He’ll do great at East Carolina or North Texas or wherever he transfers.
That's a little harsh.

Some of y’all are clueless.

These players we are being ASKED to leave.

Interesting idea, but I think that would create more problems than it would solve in a way. But what the hell, college football is becoming a mercenary endeavor anyway, so why not?
You can sign people during playoffs in the NFL who are not on active roster of other teams. Same thing to me.

For schools like Oregon with an almost unlimited NIL, the tampering to load a championship team would be crazy.

Sampson has another year, I think. Oregon offers him $2M or more to hit the portal, he does, they pick him up for the playoffs and he still declares for the draft. A quick couple of million for the player and a good RB for the playoffs. Win-win..... for everyone except college football.

The fall portal timing is the problem. Players have to transfer now if they want to be at a new school for the spring semester.

Not that they really care about starting classes lol, but the rules are in place because theoretically they are still “student” athletes.
That's the next shoe to drop. They'll start asking --- if I am paid to come here and play football, why am I going to class? Why limit them to 20 hours a week? Why limit them to only 4 or 5 years of eligibility? The money is going to change everything.

Wish him the best but really hoped he would have stayed for the playoffs. At least the tOSU game. With Bru, Squirrel, and Thornton having injuries another healthy wr to go with Brazell and Matthews would have been nice.
I imagine Bru, Squirrel, and Thornton will be ready vs Osu. And Matthews is coming on. IF this were Mathews, I'd be more concerned.

Not surprised as he hasn't really broken out here. I hope he lands in a good spot.

As far as potential incomers go: I think the staff is targeting Key from Kentucky. Conception really didn't have a great year this year even though he is the only good player on the NC State offense. I think he lands at Colorado because the other options have a lot of talent or are more traditionally high school recruiters.

There is a quick turnaround. They need to find a new school in less than a month.
Yeah, somehow this needs to be addressed. These xfers before the playoffs/bowls really suck. Can't really blame players who will let blocked if they don't move quickly. Maybe I could blame them in a way tho. Nimrod hurts a little. But Smith really hurts because after Pili went down, we're now thin at experienced LB.
