Obviously Reed and Pringle are special players, Pringle at times. Valentine will be missed as a blocker and Heath could be a big loss if we have injuries at WR. On Offense we are returning our OL, QB's, our best 4 RB's and we have Zuber, Gruntley, Rueter, Harris and Taylor.

With the new Graduate transfer rule and if a player is not expecting to start, it should not be any surprise kids want to go somewhere and play. Take Reese, he was here for 4 years and as a Junior he played in 1 game. He can go to UTEP and play at least 50% of the snaps.

I wish these guys success and appreciate their contributions to KSU.

I don't know who that guy is but good luck to heath and warmack. I liked both of them a lot. bet they make instant impacts wherever they land.

I made a comment in this thread or another one (can't remember) about that a lot of players were tiring of Snyder and if he stays expect a lot of transfers. And then MIR said I don't know crap......haha

I'm as big of Pro-Snyder as there ever will be, but this many players leaving is a huge red flag.

My impression, though, was that most players liked Snyder but didn't like the old-timers assistants.

It will be interesting to see if some younger coaches and coordinators creates a spark.

Warmack has been rumored to leave from day 1. Heath has a child. Not sure what Matthews deal is, but meh on all of it.

You can rationalize each one individually. But when you step back, and see that 10+ guys are leaving, the best conclusion is that things are not well.

It's happening at all or most of the schools with the new TRANSFER RULES. I don't think you guys are aware of this.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #134 on:** February 12, 2018, 10:21:45 AM »

This trend is happening more and more across all of college football. It's not just the cats. I mean, sure, it sucks, but it is what it is. Happy they'll be highlighted in another program soon. Always felt like we cheated Warmack a bit.

Cire · « **Reply #135 on:** February 12, 2018, 10:28:06 AM »

yeah none of this seems like BID big deal. All of these guys will have graduated and want more PT for 1 year.

Heath/Warmack are sharing already limited touches. Oline is all returning etc.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #136 on:** February 12, 2018, 10:42:35 AM »

Warmack was pretty great on twitter making fun of the other BS guys

SkinnyBenny · « **Reply #137 on:** February 12, 2018, 11:34:00 AM »

I will miss Daddy Warbucks so much. I think he never got the PT he deserved and it gives me the sads because I bet he wishes he went somewhere else

If all these transfers are also happening at most of the other schools where are all the other players transferring to? Not K-State (other than Rison)

We've taken on several of them that just didn't pan out. Two from Cal that were previous 4 stars as well. We just got one from Virginia in the last year.

We try to get a lot of these guys graduated early while they are still on scholarship, so that they can get started on their Master's while they are here and getting it paid for. When you get guys to do that who are also buried on the depth chart these kinds of things happen.

Warmack isn't better than Barnes or Silmon so it's hardly a loss when you have a guy like McCoy as third string. Heath had his head up his ass this past season, but I guess he has a kid back home, so by all means more power to him to transfer back home.

Katpappy · « **Reply #141 on:** February 12, 2018, 03:21:47 PM »

No reason to put athletes down, because they want more opportunities to play; or for other reasons such as close to home or has courses that are needed for a Masters Degree.

We are going to suck at WR next year, aren't we?

8manpick · « **Reply #143 on:** February 12, 2018, 05:38:47 PM »

Will be interesting to see if these transfer rules lead to more true freshman playing right away

bucket · « **Reply #144 on:** February 12, 2018, 05:58:55 PM »

I hope that Isaiah Harris can fill the Heath void. Aka fast and shifty WR who can also excel as a returner. Not sure who fills the scatback void previously held by Warmack. Thought it could be Goodwater but he left too.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #145 on:** February 13, 2018, 08:27:10 AM »

McCoy

Cire · « **Reply #146 on:** February 13, 2018, 08:34:48 AM »

Warmack was criminally under utilized IMO.

A lot of our playing time/number of touches issues are a result of our slow play/limited snaps.

ChiComCat · « **Reply #147 on:** February 13, 2018, 08:40:05 AM »

A little surprised at Heath. I would've thought he could get KR/PR duties along with more snaps at WR with Pringle and Strickland gone. Also more opportunities in the passing game with Andre calling plays and Thompson potentially at QB.

McCoy

I thought McCoy was more in the mold of a Silmon.

You're probably right. For some reason I thought he was shorter than what he is.
