Any FBS Transfer Action Yet?

[underdawg]

SIU is looking for an additional RB, couple OL and maybe even a QB (though starter Kory Faulkner will be a senior)>

[ASU_Fanatic]

My sources tell me Johnny Football is transferring to Appalachian State.

Tanner Brock should play for the Bearkats next year. He was suspended this entire year for his trouble at TCU. He has practiced with the SHSU all year and from all accounts one of the best players.

Is it just me, or doesn't it seem like FBS transfers are the most over-hyped, least-consequential part of the recruiting/off-season. Every year, a couple teams pick up FBS transfers that are going to rejuvenate their program, and every year those programs fall short of expectation.

Not just you at all. From what I've seen FBS transfers have a 1/3 chance (or less) to make any kind of substantial impact on their team. Just ask Lamar.

[ST_Lawson]

Everyone's hoping that the gamble will pay off and they'll end up with an exceptional player. We got lucky once with Aaron Stecker. He played 2 years at Wisconsin until Ron Dayne showed up and took his job. He transferred to Western and then proceeded to rewrite the Gateway conference record books for RBs. But, it's pretty rare to end up getting a guy like that.

UNI landed a.qb last year that was a top 15 kid out of hs, and was considered a right handed Tebiw like player.....he threw maybe 5 passes this year as the part time back up with another qb

xcoffeex
That is a risk most Universities are willing to take... Just ask a Delaware fan (Flaco)

[underdawg]

I'd say the probability that a FCS freshman player will not work out is about the same as whether an FBS one will. BUT it is rare that a three star or better recruit comes to the FCS level straight out of high school. For example I can only think of one running back (Tommy Koutsos) who started for SIU over the last 12 years that wasn't an FBS or JUCo transfer--and we've had some good transfers from both--Arkee Whitlock, Deji Karim, Brandon Jacobs etc.

[Original_RMC]

Former PSU QB Paul Jones stated on twitter that he is transferring to Robert Morris.

I agree totally. Hey Jacked...has SDSU ever had an FBS transfer that panned out? NDSU has had very few FBS transfers period, in fact the only one I can think of is QB Tony Stauss who came from Northwestern and this was in our DII days. Stauss was decent and started for a year or two until Steve Walker took over as a Rfr I believe. Stauss was our QB in 2002 I believe when we shocked the Griz in Missoula......that was a great game! A couple years ago the Bison were suppose to be getting a DE from U of Wisconsin, but kid changed his mind and followed his girlfriend to Division III Wisconsin LaCrosse or something like that, but I heard through the grapevine the kid didn't even make an impact there. Bison fans......any other FBS transfers that you can remember?? Paschall maybe, but he might of been a JUCO, can't remember. If in fact Paschall was an FBS....that one worked out nicely for us.

[clenz]

Not a good year for UNI. Strength of Schedule was a MAJOR problem. With the team, a good one, going nowhere, why hurt a kid that might help next year when the schedule is better.
He won't play next year either.

The kid that beat him out was a freshman that went 185-313 (60%) for 2,460 yards 21 touchdowns and just 8 picks (4 of them came from WR bobbling the ball and it popping into the air). That's 224 yards per game and an effenciency of 143. He earned MVFC Freshman of the year, and MVFC Newcomer of the year. He also finished second in the league in total offense, second in passing yards per game, FIRST in passing effenciency, in the conference. He broke the conference record for passing yards by a freshman, on pace to finish second (maybe first) in career passing yard in the MVFC), etc... He broke every freshman passing record at UNI (yards, TD, efficiency, etc...)


He may lose his job/get hurt....but the kid we got from SMU was really third string this year and threw 1 pass....it was incomplete.

#14 Winston Wright, a transfer from Missouri, is currently our best DB. He had a big interception and fumble recovery in last week's game against EIU. Overall, we haven't had many FBS transfers, and the ones that we have had (TE Kyle Sheehan from Purdue, for example) haven't really had a huge impact.

[xcoach2]

Not just you at all. From what I've seen FBS transfers have a 1/3 chance (or less) to make any kind of substantial impact on their team. Just ask Lamar.



Sam has some p' good FBS transfers. Flanders, Swanson, Weaver, Chance Nelson...

[Sam_Kats]

I think it depends on WHEN you get them. Most of the ones who play @ Sam transferred with 3-4 years of eligibility.

[katstrapper]

Sam has some p' good FBS transfers. Flanders, Swanson, Weaver, Chance Nelson...

Yep and there are a few more sitting on the roster that havent even hit the field yet....

LB Grant Clifton .. Fr (Navy)
LB Tanner Brock .. Jr (TCU)
LB Brandon Durant .. Fr (Missouri)
DT Diamonte Wheeler .. So (Oklahoma St)
K James French .. Fr (Kansas St)
RB Will Randolph .. Fr (Tx A&M)

As far as Lamar goes, their coach doesnt have a clue. Reminds me of the TW era at Sam Houston .

would this work: get the NCAA to reduce 1-A schollys from 85 to 80, but keep 1-AA at 63.......the last 3 or 4 signed each February are possibly (but not always) the ones who look to move on.

[Jacked_Rabbit]

Same deal with Winston Wright, our good one. He must've left Mizzou after his Frosh year to join his brother Dom at SDSU.

More importantly, get rid of these massive walk-on programs that FBS schools have come up with. They are offering "preferred walk-on" spots to guys, promising them schollies down the road, but really just wanting to evaluate them for a year or two before deciding if they are worthy of the scholarship.

If those type of guys went FCS instead, it would be great for our level. An example I can think of, TE Dallas Clark at Iowa. If there was no walk-on program like this, he probably would've went to a school like UNI instead (hypothetically, of course).

Maybe a rule that any/all walk-on's can not receive a scholarship until their Junior year at the earliest would change the minds of some of those high schoolers.

[NSF]

My guess is that much less than half of FBS transfers to FCS programs wind up making a significant impact. As a fairly recent MVFC follower, there have been only a handful that come to mind in the last few years. Most notably, Ronnie Fouch at Indiana State (Washington), Rodemoyer at Youngstown (W. Virginia), Hampton at SIU (Iowa), and a few at Illinois State this year--Frierson and Palmer (Illinois) and the 2 new OLs from Oklahoma and Miami. I think the same could be said about the JUCO transfers, some work out, some don't.

Did Hampton at SIU, or any of the others listed above, make any All-MVFC teams? I honestly don't know.

LB Tanner Brock .. Jr (TCU)

Tanner Brock isn't eligible FYI. Jarrett Brown (DE) is a helluva player too and he's a transfer.

Speaking of Lamar, the Johnson kid could be soooo good if he get his head on straight. He came very close to transferring to Sam but chose Lamer at the end.

[NSF]

Yes, all of the MVFC players I listed made some level All-Conference, or in the case of the 2 new OLs from Illinois State, All-newcomer this season.

[kdinva]

Didn't see this coming...........UVa QB Michael Rocco is leaving.......but wants to stay at the 1-A level and sit out 2013.......no mention (yet) of moving to U. Richmond......but since he's played 3 seasons at 1-A......he'll have to sit out 2013 regardless of destination.......stay tuned.

[lmckay92]

Eric Kresser on the 96 Marshall team was a pretty good transfer. Allowed Pennington to redshirt and develop for another year.

[heath]

Mike Rocco leaving UVA after starting the last 2 seasons at QB.Very odd,but seems like there is a big shake up going on at UVA. Will he end up playing for his uncle at Richmond? Anyone hear any rumors?

Look at some recent teams that have made the Championship game...Flanders last season, both starting QBs the season before, one of which was last season's Payton winner. All FBS transfers. Of course fans overhype them, but there are plenty of reasons to be excited about the potential of these transfers.

We've had pretty good luck with Oregon and OSU wideout drop-downs. Elvis Akpla comes to mind :)

As far as I know, UND has only had one FBS transfer and if not for an injury in the first game of the season Braden Hanson may have turned in the best season ever by a QB at UND.

Ronnie Fouch may have had more impact on ISUb and maybe the MVC than any player in years. Their next alternative wouldnt have won 2 games for them.

UCONN WR Tebucky Jones Jr to transfer to Fordham

[Walkon79]

We have a 6'5" Texas receiver who transferred last year, but didn't see the field. We're fairly deep at that position this year.

[TheRevSFA]

I haven't seen any new ones for us, however we've had some good luck recently with them.

Willie Jefferson (Baylor)
Colin Garrett (Kansas)
Doug Gentry (Purdue) has been a great backup to Gus Johnson so far.

[NSF]

Illinois State has 5 current key starters that are FBS transfers--2 OL (from Oklahoma and Miami) that have solidified their line, and 3 excellent defensive starters that totally changed the complexion of their defense (2 from Illinois, and 1 from Wisconsin-who blocked the XP against App. State). This is the first time I've seen that many key contributors, and it could be argued that they don't make the playoffs without them.

[WeAreNorthDakota]

It's real shame for UND that Hanson is a senior. Having him makes that offense pretty dangerous.

Especially with the whole receiving corps back next year. But I guess we'll get to see what we have in our freshmen.

[clenz]

Well...UNI gets it's first transfer.

Redshirt Freshman Makinton Dorleant from the University of Maryland posted on twitter tonight he will be transfering to UNI at semester. He is a 5'11 180lb defensive back from Naples, Florida....same town that back up QB Justin Black went to HS (not same HS though).

In high school he recorded 42 tackles, 14 pass breakups, one interception, one fumble recovery, two blocked field goals and 652 yards of total offense as a senior despite missing four games with an injury. He was the the No. 43-ranked safety in the nation by Scouts, Inc. ... ranked No. 62 in the country among cornerbacks by Rivals.com ... rated No. 85 nationally among cornerbacks by Scout.com. Also registered 42 tackles, two pass breakups and three blocked kicks in 2009 as junior. Also had offers from Florida State, Iowa State, Wisconsin and West Virginia out of high school....

[Seawolf97]

[SpeedkingATL]

App State currently has one transfer confirmed to join next year. Eric Davidson, running back, is transferring from Utah to ASU next semester and will join the team. Davidson is originally from Western Guilford HS in Greensboro and walked on to Utah this season where he redshirted. Not sure what his "ranking" status was last year but as a walk on at Utah, probably not highly recruited at the FBS level. RB is certainly an area where App needs some help next year.

[TheRevSFA]

Yeah, he was a WR at Baylor..came here after troubles in Waco and moved to DE.

He sure was a beast on defense.

[CrazyCat]

Your thinking of Kurt Davis who is from CA. and transferred from UNLV. He redshirted this year. The guy from Texas is Eryon Barnett who saw spot duty but will be fighting for a starting CB position next year.

The new transfer is Ijumaa Armstrong a safety/CB from Hawaii

[jimbo65]

Fordham board reported the Terbucky (spelling) Jones Jr. has transferred from UConn. I believe he will be used at receiver. his dad was an NFL player. Fordham's coach, Joe Morehead was the QB coach at UConn until he came to Fordham for this season. The 2nd or 3rd string QB transferred to us this year but was hurt and out for the season after one or two games.

[Uncle Rico's Clan]

Travon Van of Marshall is transferring to Montana. He is a running back who had the second most rushing yards for the Thundering Herd as a freshman. His sophomore year they moved him to defensive back. He wanted to return to the offensive side of the ball and ended up at Montana. He is from San Diego and had a 4 star rating out of high school. He originally had offers from USC and Florida, signing with Florida in 2010 before an academic issue sent him to Marshall.

[lmckay92]

I think injuries did Van in. At first I thought his 2 yard carry average was due to a bad offensive line, but after he was moved from RB, we had a group of three freshmen all average 5+ yards per carry. It'll be interesting to see if Van can get going at Montana.

[BearIt]

Eric Kresser on the 96 Marshall team was a pretty good transfer. Allowed Pennington to redshirt and develop for another year.

There was that other transfer on the 96 Marshall team that was decent. I think his name was Moss or something like that.xsmiley_wix

[lmckay92]

Montana fans, it looks like RB Tron Martinez is going to be joining Van in Montana. He and Van were our two starters two seasons ago. Tron has a blown out knee that he played on that year, though. Didn't get to dress this season due to it.

I heard a little about this, but it sounded like Tron Martinez has been medially disqualified.

[lmckay92]

Yup our SID just announced we've DQed him. We DQed a defensive lineman named John Youboty a few years ago and he ended up playing a season at Temple. His knee is probably trashed, I doubt anyone takes a chance on him. His scholarship will be honored (he was originally a walk on. earned the scholly) if he stays at Marshall.

Looks like Dustin Adams, a OL who redshirted at Northern Illinois last year will either be transferring to UND or NDSU. He's originally from Minot, ND.

Also, I believe wide receiver JJ Robertson who committed to Illinois last year but never enrolled will be at UND either in the spring or next fall.

[Go Green]

The Columbia blog says that Stanford second string QB Brett Nottingham is transfering to Columbia.

The guess here is that he wanted to get a better education.

I would guess it'll be UND if it's between those two. NDSU has not had good luck at all with FBS transfers to the point where I don't even know if they look in that direction anymore as there hasn't been one for the last 3 years. NDSU also has very limited scholarship dollars available due to low number of seniors this year and the surprising large recruiting class so far.

In addition to others already mentioned, Appalachian State also enrolled Charlotte, N.C., product Ryan McGuirt on Monday, a former punter with the Miami Hurricanes. With All American Sam Martin graduating, he could play an important role for App if he can perform. I expect he is a walk-on at App.

Correct. Adams and Robertson are both enrolled at UND for the spring semester. Appear to be our only new spring arrivals. Anybody new to NDSU for the spring? Early enrollees, old commits becoming newly eligible, etc?

Not that I know of. The only new blood in the spring will be the redshirts. A few key guys are coming back from injury but I doubt they'll do much in the spring in order to make sure their rehab goes as smoothly as possible.

EDIT: I guess one guy I forgot about is a tiny RB named Darius Anderson (http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2012/nov/16/anderson-might-be-next-great-ndsu-running-back/). He transferred in from Valley City State this year originally from Hawaii. I know coming from VCSU doesn't say much but apparently he really impressed coaches on the scout team while redshirting this year and he may have a role next year as a scat back type change of pace from Ojuri and Crockett.

No crap, but right now your new coach could have brought his entire previous team and it would have been an improvement over what you had last year. And yes I am serious.

I'm still pretty confident that our issue has been one mainly of coaching. One, how our previous coaching staff mishandled QB's. Two, general coaching mishaps and not getting the most out of our players. I think we have a lot more talent on our team than it looks like and I'm hoping our new coaching staff proves me right.

That being said, I'm not counting on a win next season. I just want to see the team be competitive and grow after every game. Not hear the same crap in every post-game interview with no changes from week to week.

Tanner Brock will start for the Bearkats, was ineligible for this season because of grades, been practicing with team, should help ease the loss of Darius Taylor.

BTW, how is Darius? Great player.

Darius is just fine, Darnell had his knee surgery a few days ago and has high spirits, he is ready to rehab and try and make a team once well.

Oddly enough, our new coaches brought in an FCS transfer from Indiana State. DB Tarris Batiste. I guess the coaches thought he was good enough to bring with them.

Big time.

Should be a good fit for what we do.

[frozennorth]

Correct. Adams and Robertson are both enrolled at UND for the spring semester. Appear to be our only new spring arrivals. Anybody new to NDSU for the spring? Early enrollees, old commits becoming newly eligible, etc?

Not that I know of. The only new blood in the spring will be the redshirts. A few key guys are coming back from injury but I doubt they'll do much in the spring in order to make sure their rehab goes as smoothly as possible.

EDIT: I guess one guy I forgot about is a tiny RB named Darius Anderson (http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2012/nov/16/anderson-might-be-next-great-ndsu-running-back/). He transferred in from Valley City State this year originally from Hawaii. I know coming from VCSU doesn't say much but apparently he really impressed coaches on the scout team while redshirting this year and he may have a role next year as a scat back type change of pace from Ojuri and Crockett.

there is also a DB transferring from MSUM. Not sure his name

[bjtheflamesfan]

My guess is that much less than half of FBS transfers to FCS programs wind up making a significant impact. As a fairly recent MVFC follower, there have been only a handful that come to mind in the last few years. Most notably, Ronnie Fouch at Indiana State (Washington), Rodemoyer at Youngstown (W. Virginia), Hampton at SIU (Iowa), and a few at Illinois State this year--Frierson and Palmer (Illinois) and the 2 new OLs from Oklahoma and Miami. I think the same could be said about the JUCO transfers, some work out, some don't.

This may be from almost a year ago but this has been my feeling about FBS transfers, even back when Rashad Jennings came to Liberty from Pitt and Paul Troth came to Liberty from ECU (most Flames fans don't even WANT to remember how badly that one went). Just because you come from a I-A/FBS school does not mean you will dominate at the lower level. It doesnt matter if you came from Oklahoma, Miami, Navy (like the kid that chattownmocs has been having wet dreams over because he started his last two games there), Wyoming, Central Michigan, Alabama, Florida, Wake Forest, Louisville or wherever. For every Tim Flanders or Rashad Jennings there is a host of running backs who largely did not pan out. For every Joe Flacco there is a Paul Troth or insert any number of other FBS QB transfers who basically stunk up the place. My point is that FBS trasnfers aren't always the "silver bullet" they are made out to be

For the first time in 4 years it looks like NDSU is getting in on the FBS transfer action.

Multiple sources telling @HuskerOnline that #Huskers rFr. RB King Frazier will be transferring to North Dakota State.http://bit.ly/1cRoT3u

He was a 3 star RB prospect out of Missouri in 2012. He was recruited by NDSU's current head coach and former DC Chris Klieman but chose a walk-on offer to Nebraska. He'll have 3 years of eligibility remaining and I'd expect him to be in competition for the timeshare at RB behind John Crockett this upcoming season with sophomore Chase Morlock.

[bjtheflamesfan]

Eh...we shall see. Ive always been of the wait and see variety when it comes to FBS transfers regardless whether its the three time national champs or the worst team in FCS.
