Transfer Portal Tracker

I think we should go after Micah Hudson from Texas Tech or Johntay Cook from Texas. Both top20 in the portal, both speedy smaller guys like Singleton
 
From Espn+:

2. Eric Singleton Jr., WR
Transferring from: Georgia Tech
Seasons remaining: 2

HT: 5-11 | WT: 190 | Class: Sophomore

Background: Singleton was an instant difference-maker for Georgia Tech's offense when he arrived, earning Freshman All-America honors in 2023 and finishing second for the ACC's Offensive Rookie of the Year honor.

The three-star signee from Douglasville, Georgia, caught 104 passes for 1,468 yards and scored 10 offensive touchdowns over the past two seasons. Singleton also ran track for the Yellow Jackets with a PR of 10.32 in the 100-meter dash this spring.

He has the talent to become an early-round draft pick and will be one of the most coveted players in the portal.

Scout's take: Singleton might be one of the best route runners and fastest overall players in the transfer portal.

He's really good in the underneath passing game where he can turn screens and 5-yard catches into big chunk gains. He also has elite straight-line speed to also get behind the defense and plucks most balls thrown in his vicinity. What makes him such a high commodity in the portal are the intangibles. He's a great blocker and tough player. -- Tucker

Singleton has 10.3 100m speed, and that's clocked at an ACC track meet. Nobody on the team is that fast. Also, Penson is the most likely DB to play both ways.

Two counter points.
1. Most of our deep throws have shown a tendency to come up short (King, Philo, and Pyron)
2. Very few of our long passes have been due to our WR getting separation based on speed. The difference between 10.3 and 11 is maybe half a step in 40 yards.

Eric’s real value has been on our sweeps. If he leaves Tech, he needs to pick his offense carefully to avoid getting relegated to a slot receiver role where he gets few touches.

Eric should do himself a favor and watch some Auburn tape. Their qb looks like a guy who would be second or third team on a MAC team. Unless it's simply all about the $$$ in which case film review is of no value.

Fortunatley for Auburn, Peyton Thorne is a senior and won't be back next season. It's looking like their going to bring in Stanford's QB in a transfer to be the starter next year.
 
Remember, Haynes King made Singleton look good. When a DB is worried worried the QB is a runner, it opens up for the WR when the DB keeps eyes in the background

Which wouldn't happen when Philo takes over,

I agree with you but I am worried that Singleton helps open up Rutherford.
