Battles, Dunkley, and T-Rex not on Spring Roster

You guys do this every time. Tyrone McKenzie was certainly a productive transfer who is now in the NFL. Ryan Schmidt was a productive transfer. Darrell Scott only had one year at USF, but he led the team in rushing, so hard to not consider him productive for that season.

"You guys" really shouldn't fall for the insult.

>Productive transfers:

Tyrone McKenzie - LB from iowa state

Ryan schmidt - OG from KState

Ryam Gilliam - CB from Oregon (nickel behind jenkins and trae)

 

So, we've got 3 or 4 guys that made big enough impacts to remember.  McKenzie (3-star) and Schmidt (2-star) having significant impacts and Scott and Gilliam playing quite a bit.

 

The big get transfers (4 and 5 star guys) like Scott, Dunkley, Ford really haven't done much.  Sure Scott started most of 1 season, but by all accounts he didn't practice hard and really never lived up to his potential.  

 

Scott excelled against FAMU, what more could we expect from a super star transfer?

Looks like it was for Weed.

Scott came in with very high expectations and fell short. Still, he rushed for 814 yards in his only season. That's most of any running back at USF in the last seven seasons. So if that's guy you point to as Exhibit A for how transfers don't work out, you don't have a good list. It's hit or miss, like any aspect of evaluating players. Same for signees out of high school, draft picks out of college, etc. ...

GA,

Thou shalt stop trying to interject logic.

Would smoking POT reduce a players stamina and lead to a “wilting†in the 4th quarter?
