naptownskinsfan Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I'm probably a day behind posting this, but Fields has entered himself into the transfer portal, which allows him to talk to other schools about transferring to another program. Fields played in more than four games, so he can't redshirt transfer and play immediately, as he played in most of our games either in specific packages or in mop-up duty. I believe I saw it reported that Fields will investigate getting the waiver that would allow him to play immediately, however. If he can secure that waiver, a lot of teams will be very interested in getting him on their roster. Currently, Fields has been practicing with Georgia in preparation for their bowl game, and plans to play in the Sugar Bowl. Does Fields end up transferring? If so, what team do you think it is?

THE DUKE Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 We were discussing this in the transfer thread yesterday. Sounds like it will be either Oklahoma or Ohio State. The Ohio State insiders seem fairly confident he is going there and Jalen Hurts ends up at Oklahoma, but it seems far from a sure thing. His request for immediate eligibility seems pretty flimsy, but with how corrupt and backwards the NCAA is, i'd say he has at least a 50/50 shot he gets his way.

If he goes to tOSU I think Tate is done at tOSU and transfer. I feel like Fields wants to go some where that allows him to start. I can see him sitting a year or two behind Tate. If he comes to tOSU it’s prolly because Day said he most likely be the starter. Makes me feel bad or Tate cause I think he could be pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I think honestly Fields comes to OSU after the NCAA let’s him come in with the waiver because of that incident Tate then transfer to a more running QB tailored offense like Oregon or UCLA I think could be a great fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day wants more a passing QB rather than a running QB for his offense, am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it makes sense. We can recruit the best athletes so you should definitely take advantage of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 If Fields wants to start immediately he can come to Wisconsin. We have zero QBs on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy knows how to properly utilize a mobile QB. How do we know Day is truly a pass first? Day seems like he runs/gears his offense to his talent. Having Tate or Fields would be huge because both guys can run and pass the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’ll utilize a runner, but I believe based on everything he’s said his ideal offense is the one we just ran this season. Thats what I see the future of our offenses being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I see the future of our offenses being That be the case, he needs to greatly work on his running schemes. Rushing attack started to pick up once he had Haskin run it a little bit. Passing the ball should always been first priority, hard to win with a RB at QB. Just need a true dual threat like a Tate or Fields. Offense with JTB could have been extremely deadly if he could properly pass the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naptownskinsfan Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Update: Fields is heading to Ohio State-https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/reports-former-five-star-quarterback-justin-fields-transferring-to-ohio-state/ Huge pickup for them, and a potential big loss from Georgia as Fromm struggled in the bowl game and in the opinion of this Georgia fan, has yet to have a signature game.
