What might be more interesting is the number/percentage of FBS transfers that made it on another team at the same or higher level. I have a strong feeling that it's a lot lower than 80%.
I know of a DC that's looking for a job...
Does he want to do this? Coaching is not an easy job... long hours. Also, can Norfolk State afford a seasoned staff?
He said he would hire a seasoned staff that would assist him in transitioning to the position.
Huh, imagine that. (Ducks)

Sherrod Covil, DB from Clemson is visiting today.
People tend to forget that it wasn't JUST the special teams play that defined Beamerball; it was that ALL THREE units SCORED; not just interceptions but pick-sixes; not just forced fumbles but scoop and scores; not just blocked kicks but blocked kicks resulting in safeties or TDs
Yep. And I lived there followed the Hokies like a religion, and I honestly can't believe I mixed them up. Still and all, I should not have brought up my personal thing and I intend to delete the post in fairness to all concerned.
So I was 6th out of 7 kids in my family (plus Mom had 5 miscarriages so it could easily have been more; the oldest 6 of us were within 9 years(as well as 4 of the miscarriages) so my mom was nursing or pregnant from 1955-1967 ( when asked why they had so many kids, my dad said 'well SOMEONE has to raise the average IQ of the planet...").
Side note, my dad went ahead to Okinawa to find housing so Mom traveled from upstate NY to Okinawa BY HERSELF with a 6 year old, 5 yr old, 4 yr old, and twin 9 month olds. The oldest three on harnesses (which I 'm not keen on but given the circumstances I understand it) and one of the twins on each hip. She said at a layover in KC, the three oldest got loose and took off in three different directions (and didn't look back cause they knew if she caught their eye, they'd have to come back. She said she sat on the floor, smoked a cigarette and a drunk guy came up and said "do you want me to find them and bring them back"? Apparently she paused for ten seconds or so and said "yeah...their dad would probably miss them!" And the guy DID get them all back to her; can't imagine how that would've gone in current times.

He heard there was unlimited eligibility.
There's reality, and there's the sales job.
Totally tangential- but I got to guard him i a pickup game in War Memorial Gym ; I got in his way enough" once to cause him to dribble the ball off his thigh-one of my brushes with greatness lol.
Avg 15 players per FBS school for those playing along at home.
Thanks. I was aware of the requires service rqmt. My son went to the USAFA.
He has an opportunity to sign a 7 figure NIL deal. You don't accrue required service at the Academy until your Junior year so if he was going to leave to pursue football, this was the year to do it.
He was in good standing with acceptable grades so not a discipline issue.
The academies have no NIL deals at all.
Why leaving West Point? Disciplinary? Own choice?
I think the reason matters....
I just looked it up: there are 6,311 active football players in the NCAA Transfer Portal at this moment.Of that total number:- 2,073 players are from FBS schools- 1,639 players are from FCS schools1) There aren't 6,311 spots - much less 6,311 scholarships.2) That doesn't...— Joshua Caraway (@CoachJCaraway) December 14, 2024
Last year there were 3,900 TOTAL between Winter and Spring. Full text from tweet below.
I just looked it up: there are 6,311 active football players in the NCAA Transfer Portal at this moment.
Of that total number:
- 2,073 players are from FBS schools
- 1,639 players are from FCS schools1) There aren't 6,311 spots - much less 6,311 scholarships.
2) That doesn't count JUCO/NAIA guys looking for a home.
3) There are thousands of D2 and D3 guys trying to move up.
Recruits, the music will stop and the ride will end - when it does, make sure you're playing football and not just collecting graphics and offers.
When they are on, they are on. Carleigh got in the zone yesterday and they just kept feeding her the ball.
There are going to be some parents who simply state put up with it for a couple of years and you will increase your chances of being set for life.
Way lower and the article noted that FCS transfers fair way worse, but I don't recall specific numbers.
