Make those coaches work for those salaries rather than thinking they can just lock them into scholarships and be done with them. Love it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyPhil1781 Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 Julian Fleming enters the portal along with Reid Carrico. Fleming is a bit of a surprise but the young WRs we have are absolutely loaded with talent so I'm not too surprised. Carrico was going to be depth as well but there's seemingly something going on and I'm curious as to what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Saw that with Fleming and unless he knows someone like Egbuka is back that’s a bit puzzling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season to cement himself as a draft pick and he likely knows he will still be the #2-#3 guy behind Tate next year with a transfer QB. Seems like the type of guy who will go try to be the #1 on a lesser team to get his shine after playing behind Olave/Garrett/MHJ/Egbuka for 3 years. Are you talking about in terms of transfers in the portal going on or Carrico specifically? I think its just he knows he wont be starting over Styles or Hicks so he is gone IMO but what do I know.

beekay414 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Fleming and McCord can come to Wisconsin as a package duo since we just lost Dike and Bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Houston the front runner since Fritz coached him and his dad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) I don’t think Julian Fleming has anything to do with Kyle McCord. Fleming did nothing with McCord this season, in fact, there was a tremendous drop off from him to Stroud from the year prior. My guess is wherever McCord goes, he goes the opposite direction. We are talking about a guy who had almost double digit touchdowns as a junior to having a couple hundred yards and no scores this year. Can recount multiple times he was wide open for touchdowns where it was overthrown. Bottom line for Fleming, he did not ever live up to what he was expected as a pass catcher, and they have younger guys who are going to continue to get those targets over him.

BobbyPhil1781 Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 Rumor is McCord left bc he and his family wanted assurance he'd be the starter next year and Day couldn't promise that. Can't blame either party if that is true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 On a personal level, I liked Kyle McCord just fine. He seemed like a nice kid, and he stuck through being a back up a couple seasons. But he had a very beta personality. I would not have followed him into a pillow fight. That’s just not the type of guy that’s going to withstand the scrutiny of a place like Ohio State.

Miyan Williams is a UDFA all the way. Some dudes are just done being in college. I’m not an expert but I feel like at a lesser program he would have made more in portal NIL than missing an NFL roster next year. Also that seems to be a surefire indication Carson Beck will be back at Georgia. Edited December 4, 2023 by NateDawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 "Realistic" transfer portal guys I'd like for VT: Duke DL Aeneas Peebles UNC DL Kedrick Bingley-Jones (hasn't panned out, maybe a change of scenery) Gannon DL Obi Ezeigbo Vandy DL Nate Clifton Harvard DL Thor Griffith Ga Tech Edge Kyle Kennard Duke Edge RJ Oben Indiana IOL Zach Carpenter Indiana OT Carter Smith (visited Blacksburg this past weekend) North Dakota OT Easton Kilty Harvard TE Tyler Neville (he's from Williamsburg, VA and attended Hokie camp) UConn TE Justin Joly Miss State RB Simeon Price (former Hokie offer) NC State RB Jordan Houston (from Oakton, VA, had Hokie offer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also that seems to be a surefire indication Carson Beck will be back at Georgia. I have a hot take and that hot take is that Miyan Williams is going to be one of those players who is a UDFA success story and makes a real name for himself in the NFL. Before his injury that basically led to him missing time and others passing him on the depth chart, he reminded me SO much of Mark Ingram or CJ Anderson (who was also a UDFA) who both made nice careers for themselves in the NFL being absolute stocky bowling balls with deceptive quickness and lateral ability. He has a elite skillset and that skillset is 'Run through a ****** face" to quote Marshawn Lynch. There is a place for that in the NFL.
