Hate seeing X leaving -- he showed a lot of potential.

X was also a good Big Country connection. ACU needs those to be Abilene's team. Disappointed to read he is transferring.

I also hate to see X leave. I guess when Vaughan was moved back to RB his time to play was lessened. Good luck to him in the future.

QB transfer portal market looks to be over saturated from day one in my opinion. I am not sure why some of these QBs are choosing to leave their current spots. I believe this is to our advantage. The more high quality QBs that are on the market means a higher chance of us getting one of them. Tyler Shough doesn't seem unreasonable at all top me. Of course, this is assuming that our staff is going after QBs in the first place. If they are not, then I am concerned.

Just saw that Jermiah Dobbins has entered the portal. Hate seeing this. Really hate to hear this. A really great young man and really good RB. Great family. He was hurt so much this year and we have a lot of good RBs. Certainly wish him the very best. Maybe he will change his mind. After his injury and limited carries this year I really wonder where he can go and get more touches. Just hope that he doesn't go to one of the other WAC schools. I wonder what conversations are being or have been had between our coaches and the players entering the portal.

Staff met with every player last week. They know who has decided to hit the portal and who is staying

I wondered what would be the status of Jermiah going forward. He was hurt each of his 3 years here, so was never able to give us a full season. I also wonder about Banks. He was suspended, then used infrequently when he got back. During that time Sunday and Vaughan performed well and if they stay (I think they will) then I believe they will be our go to backs in the future. But of course that brings to light how thin (#'s) we are at RB after that being a strength last year. I understand that the coaches have completed their exit interviews and no one was asked to leave, so these players who are going to the portal are doing it on their own with no "push" from our staff. Anxious to see who we bring in.

Dobbins did say in his post that he had graduated early and would be a grad transfer. He had nothing but positive things to say about ACU so I don't get the impression he is upset about his lack of playing time. I do think we could have used him more but was never sure about his injuries. He does seem like a great young man that will be a positive impact anywhere he goes.

Where do you go on your computer to see transfers and their comments?
