Transfer Rankings

Griffin seemed to make as many plays as anybody else at DT. Sanders is a loss, but wasn’t lighting the world on fire. Gibbs may be the most significant loss in the country. If he gets fed there he’s going to be a Heisman finalist.

Gibbs won’t last the entire year. He was hurt the entire time he played for us. Same with Jeff Sims. Neither one of them ever made a single play against Georgia. Not one.

We had that TE on the field 95% of the time for blocking also. Taking him off going 2RB or 4/5 wide was just inviting folks into our backfield the last 2 years. Hard to utilize the TE when you have to have him blocking.

Having a TE block is one way to “utilize” them. Outside of Devaney they were really bad blockers as well, yet we kept them on the field anyway 95% of the time.

Most of those guys wouldn’t play at more than a handful of P5 schools. There is no way they should have been on the field as much as they were.

Gibbs played every game this year. Had 200+ touches and 2,000 yards. Don’t remember him being hurt much.

He did hurt his knee last year. Not sure that equates to being hurt the entire time he was here though.

Never made it through an entire season is all I’m saying.

James Blackstrain is from Florida. He was injured at the end of his junior year prior to coming to GT.

Leo Blackburn is from Georgia got injured at GT in the spring.

So Blackburn may be a stud. Hope so.

Both these guys were very good players prior to getting injured. No telling where they’re at rehab wise or developmentally at the moment. Blackburn has what we’re looking for in a Tight End, he’s NFL caliber at that position in my opinion & not just getting a contract level, he‘s got Waller capabilities. Blackstrain‘s got serious talent & is an NFL level player. The injuries are troubling, but only someone really close to them would be able to tell if the injuries are just a minor bump in the road for them or something a bit more limiting. We should know by spring practice whether we got 2 Aces in the hole or not.

Tech currently ranked #9 in transfers per 247 Sports. Shows 7 transfers, but all 3 star - wasn’t Gee a 4 star? Don’t think this rating factors in transfer losses (?).

Good to see - really need a quick influx of immediately available talent.

The transfer portal is another step away from what college football should be. It is yet another way for the football factories that already out recruit teams like Georgia Tech by miles, to gain even more of a talent gap by dropping their players that were overvalued and picking off good players from smaller schools—-I.e The Georgia Tech’s of CFB.

Georgia Tech will always lose the transfer portal war on the larger scale. They recruit should be made to sit out at least one year. Ridiculous that rule went away.

Until they make coaches sit out a year, they shouldn’t make players.

They should do that too. They should also cap the coaches salaries—- no higher than the highest paid professor. It used to be “college” football.

Ehhhh. Players are students, not employees. And unless I'm mistaken they can enroll immediately at their destination to keep being students, which has always been the case...provided they make it through admissions based on academic and athletic eligibility. The former restrictions on the athletic side such as sitting out did not impede the college's mission of providing an education. That was a concession to the players for no reason other than to facilitate NIL.
 
People should be free to do what they desire & get whatever they can get in the free market. If 2 parties want to sign a 7 year contract where someone can get paid $3+M/yr with a huge buyouts for early termination with no performance guarantees either minimums or maximums, nobody’s twisting their arms. This is America after all.

This is why Collins is actually a genius.
