Portal Kombat

[michigancat]

A lot of dudes who transfer, come from smaller programs and want to play at a higher level to be seen their last few years. Briley Moore, Stubblefield, etc. A lot of dudes who transfer out of P5's, end up at smaller programs. But yes guys, DRAG HIM!

I dragged Malone a lot less than he dragged players in the portal!

I fully support us taking advantage of the portal but I'm not sure about Malone's approach with that tweet.

I think he's telling guys to bootstrap it better and I know a lot of people hate that game speak.

The message is fine. He is saying if you decide to transfer out do some introspection on reasons for leaving.  The free transfer process is new and many kids just haven’t done their homework on the reality of where transfers are landing.  It likely means a step down to lower level football, especially if you couldn’t crack the rotation at KSU.

It usually means this for K-State players 95% of the time when they leave. Btw, how did Youngblood do at Rutgers this year?

There's also a major backlog with player eligibility for the next few years. There will most likely be thousands of kids in the portal this year, for not a lot of P5/even D1 spots.

I was literally curious. He was like the only transfer to make a P5 lateral jump:

Bummer he regressed.  Still has a couple more years, though. 

[420seriouscat69]

Very true. Maybe he had an injury. Who knows.

Bye bye Jacardia… 

[MakeItRain]

That's the least surprising news of all time. Good on him for sticking it out for the entire season.

Yeah, I liked him, but it just never materialized and unfortunately his biggest splash on the season was potentially completely changing the trajectory of the OU game with his fumble. But, still, wish him well.

so that leaves 1 rb on the roster?

cats are gonna score like 5 touchdowns next year

I'm sure this is where Malone's tweet came from

5. Deuce + 4 that have touched the ball once between them.

Some pretty promising young talent in that room, dudes we were very happy to land. Weathers, Giddens, and Price.

Will be fun to see what they do with the reps next season.

Would you rather we not have one of the best running backs in the country but a bunch of okay dudes sharing carries?

[420seriouscat69]

Yeah and I bet they add some depth in the portal. Oh well.

[wetwillie]

RB is the least of our concerns

well I'd rather have more than 1 returning rb with experience, especially taking into acct the qb and wr situation. jfc you're exhausting.

[wetwillie]

Lots of praise for Giddens in the spring and Weathers is a very good athlete.  It’s like the easiest position to find quality depth at in the portal.   Be worried about QB, WR, DT, LB and S.

[steve dave]

If we don’t land a QB we are mumped bigly so none of these other positions are really material to me yet

[wetwillie]

Steve watches like one half of football a year and still nails this, amazing really.

I know literally nothing about the rbs outside of the top 3, so I hope one or two of the other guys can contribute next year.

the other positions are clearly concerning. as it stands now I think this team finishes last next year
