Transfer: Christian Burkhalter, DE, UCLA

[Nehru Jacket]

Bout time we got Burkhalter.
Since Klink's been running the defense for so long.

Now if we can get Hogan running the offense we will have it made.

Looks a little small for a DE. But hey what do I know.

My first thought too - need to put him on a regimen to gain 15 or 20 lbs and hit the weight room.

What was that line..."Do you want it done with my usual Klink efficiency?"
Gen B: "No Klink, I want it done right this time!"

Sargent Schultz gets quoted more than anybody else on that show “I know nothing, nothing!”

not comparing....just saying the kid will put on weight

Correct. Sometimes you recruit a kid not for what he is today but what he’ll be in 2 years.

Well he’s only granted one free transfer, so exactly how will transfer without losing a year?

Don't think he's talking about Burkhalter, just in general terms about guys we will recruit.

Agreed. If only we could keep them that long

Hard to get excited about any transfer portal commitment now until they actually enroll given how flippy they have been.

Just live in the moment. Enjoy the here and now. Let tomorrow worry about itself.

Seriously though. It’s easy to get excited about the transfers - just be realistic in that the excitement might be short lived. But then again, it might not. This may be the next great player at Georgia Tech - that’s part of the joy of college football. You never know which player is going to be a bust and which is going to be great.
