Looks like he's on ISU campus, so that's likely the gig.  Doesn't affect us at all.  Wonder how we'll like corn & cold. 

 

Wally Burnham is a recruiting machine. He's always able to attract several Florida kids to that corn and cold.

Nebraska seems to have done a decent job selling it over the years.

Pretty sure UCiF was off the table no matter what. Surprised we granted release to 2 teams we play in the immediate future but its good to see coach T giving him release to a handful of schools as that is what big programs do as opposed to a small list of schools he can't go to.

Wonder if he asked for more than six, if UCF was even bought up .... ?

Per Greg

@DWFreer I believe the American has continued the Big East policy against football transfers from one league school directly to another.

Technically, ECU isn't a conference member yet.

 

 

Policy has  changed:

Really disappointed that he felt like USF was not a fit after Holtz was fired.   Strange how he could not embrace Taggart mindset and approach to the game.

As much as I love CWT and what he's done so far, the numbers say he's going to sign 20-25 kids this year with hundreds that choose to go elsewhere. I don't think every kid who decides USF isn't the place for them has some inherent flaw and couldn't "embrace" the Taggart mindset/approach. 99.9% of high school seniors this year will sign with someone other than our coach. DVo had an image of what his 4-5 years of life would look like as a football player and Holtz getting fired changed that. He gave it a go in the Spring and it wasn't working looking like he had envisioned. We don't need to sit around scratching our heads, baffled that a kid would "gasp" choose someone other than CWT to play for. Wish the kid luck and move on. It is what it is.

A "change of scenery" has had a huge impact on many an athlete in every sport in history.

Well said...sometimes things change, and you need to change.  I'd rather him leave before season, than underachieve and be a drain on the chemistry. Wish him luck at ISU.

I had a coaching change while at USF so I am very familiar with the change that comes from it and your vision as a player.     Really looking for why he did not think CWT was a fit for him as opposed to CSH who was not winning.  Maybe it is because he is a WR and his role was diminished.
