LB would have wished him well then gone out and found two replacements.

I hope Jank can do the same.

NO way I saw THIS coming.

I just wish he would stick around until the end of the season for the sake of the team. Additionally, transferring mid-season is not the smartest move in the world. You lose a minimum of 0.5 seasons of eligiblity if not a full season. Look at Semi's case, he could have played on the national championship team at Duke then transferred in the summer and have the same two seasons of eligibility he has now.

I didn't realize he was transferring till informed yesterday, but I was told to not count on Samson about a month or so ago, mostly bc Harry wasn't going to perform to Dads expectations and he handled everything. The Dad and kid truly believe he's one or two and done and deserves 30 mpg. Of course he wanted to play for LB, but what's hilarious is that LB never would have played his non defense playing arse.

Honestly, hes skilled, but not sure if that matters w his lack of athleticism. It hurts this year, but can't say I'm sweating him moving forward. When thinking about future rosters, I always found myself wondering how Harry fit in, not bc he couldn't play, but bc his lack of speed seemed contrary to direction of roster

Heard this yesterday. First thought was, "Come on down, Courtland Sutton."

We need you, Big Guy.

Tonight's basketball excellence fund dinner should be fun.

To Top Twentys point, maybe some of the proceeds can buy an insurance policy for Courtland

I doubt Courtland would play unless he is coming back for FB next year. That said, I hope he plays BB.

I guess he thought he was going to start this year or play major minutes since he had a lot of confidence in himself. Oh well, like I said we should have tried to delay the post season ban for this year.

I agree, XC just wanted him to stay to help SMU.
