Former Wyoming TE Vance Brazile received an offer last night. He redshirted last year, so he will have 4 years to play. He is listed at 6'4 230. In HS, he was clocked at a 4.7 40. Extremely fast offer from our staff. He announced he was entering the portal (interesting term for the times we live in) late last night and announces and offer from us this morning. Colorado Mesa also offered him. I like that we offered him a scholarship.

A few side notes- He was a walk-on for Wyoming
Several on the staff started following him a little over a week ago, so while he hadn't announced yet, they knew he was transferring.
He isn't the only TE they are looking at. They are still looking at a few FBS transfers and at least 1 JUCO TE

Brazile committed to Colorado Mesa earlier. Who's the coach there? Our old DC Tremaine Jackson. Good get for him.

Mavsman, are we still looking for help at specific positions or just for promising athletes?

Bogey, I think the answer is both.
If a player becomes available, regardless of position, the staff is going to investigate. For instance, a player from a Power 5 conference entered the transfer portal today and several of our coaches took notice. On paper, it wouldn't seem like a good fit, but the player is a stud athlete and this staff would find a spot for him.
Positions I think they are specifically looking at- RB TE OL DL

I wonder how many are friends with Mansell.

jCat, you are absolutely correct. The coaches have checked in on at least 2 new transfers from Iowa. One named his final 6, and we were not one of them. The other is the player I mentioned above. On paper, the fit doesn't seem to be there, but he is an incredible athlete.

I hope Mansell is as active at encouraging other players to join him at ACU as Luke Anthony always seemed to be.

He looks like he would be a nice pick up that could give a break to Billy Mc without having too much of a drop off in quickness and speed.
