Transfer Portal

[jbjack]

I've heard that as well. Also heard that several current players were given offers to go to WSU. If this is true, that it is real dick move on Jimmy's part. I know that will offend a lot of people who are patting Jimmy on the back as he exits Brookings.

I have no issue with Jimmy leaving. I have no issue with players following Jimmy provided the conversation went like this: "I'm leaving. I encourage you to stay. But if you hit the portal, I'd love to have you in BFE Washington." I agree its a dick move if he's asking players to come along before he's resigned his position here and inked his contract there.

This is starting to remind me of Bono's exit.

Bryce Hawthorne in the portal. Heading to Wazzu most likely.

He has bigger potential than that. Wouldn't be surprised If PJ Fleck, who has already brought in 15 - 20 portal players, tries to bring him back to the Twin Cities.

Pete Thamel already has him pegged as top QB in portal, so he shouldn't be limited to WSU, if he plays one more college season.

WSU's starting QB, who just threw for 350 yards and 3 TD's last week, is hitting the portal. You wouldn't think Jimmy would run him off unless he has an established QB lined up.

Hearing some of our former players have been key the last 24 hours in talking to current players Jimmy wanted to take with him to convince them to stay in Brookings. Not going to name names but put them in the SDSU HOF immediately. True Jackrabbits!

A number of current players are tweeting their commitment to the program. A good sign. So far, no one has publicly they are leaving or portalling, other than the two big ones. We'll no doubt lose some current players and recruits but I'm hopeful this won't be as bad as some initially feared.

Bryce Hawthorne just tweeted that he is in the portal. Big loss if he can't be convinced to stay.

If Mark Gronowski sticks with college ball another year rather than pursue the NFL, couldn't he do better than Washington State?

Gronowski is now in the transfer portal. Maybe him going out to WSU will help us keep Chase here?

Seems like a proactive move in case he receives less favorable feedback re draft stock

Looks like it's been deleted. The tweet was a rabbit symbol - nothing else.

Was the rabbit fierce and manly?

Sorry, it's been a day

Interesting tweet from what I assume is Riggs' son. www.x.com/peyton_riggs12/status/187320692036823

That's his son. Kurtiss discussed him working for DeBoer with Huskies and then going to AZ to coach in interviews
