Justin Brown and Hopson transferring out
- Thread starter QMartinez
- Start date
Never heard of either of them. Get used to it. The player who stays at one school for 4 years is going to be the exception, not the norm.
It’s just our weekly QMartinez football thread.
Come on, Brown had been enrolled since January. How could you not have heard of him??**
Are we talking about these two guys?
Neither have impressive offer lists. Look like just another in a 3-star army, easily replaced by the next guy from the portal, if really needed. Who cares about freshmen, it's obvious you don't know sh*t, so yeah, another @QMartinez dubmass thread.
Again, out-of-staters. Most likely just mercenaries. And even the one from Memphis, I'd still consider an out-of-stater, because no one in the Memphis Metro has any loyalty anywhere, they always go to the highest bidder.

I heard Steve Sarkisian recently say that once a player enters the portal, that player will not return to Texas, is this a common practice? I don't think we follow that line of thought?
brown offered by Tennessee, Purdue, IU, Pitt, Ole Miss, Northwestern, Missouri, Miami , Colorado, Kansas
He wont easily be replaced. Our football recruiting right now is not looking good.
You're actually right about that, sorry.
Either way, I don't see it going any different way than it ever has before. Even another reason to adopt some 'niche' concept and commit to it.
To be honest, it looks like we are losing a lot of good young talent the prior staff brought in but have no ability to replace it. Going to be a rough patch in a couple of years. Hopefully they hang on to Seth Davis and the young dL. getting shut out of the in state 2024 class is a killer.
Hard to keep 20 WRs on scholarship when only 7-8 are going to get significant playing time.
They might stick around now that Foxall is gone.
Honestly I hate losing recruits, but you are right. As long as it's receivers it's meaningless for the most part. We are going from playing 8 to 10 regularly to playing 3 or 4 ? We have too many regardless. But I do agree our recruiting is looking sketchy at best. But is all portal all the time now
I'm sure you do something besides *****. I just can't fathom what that is.
NIL may have a bearing on them leaving but it also could be work ethic, desire for playing time, culture, fat girlfriend and a host of other things that enter a 18 - 20 year old's head. If they don't want to be here, you probably won't be elevating your football program.
Exactly, we are going to simply have to lean in on guys from MS who want to be here.
Has anybody thought that maybe these guys were Leach guys? Now that Arnett has changed the offense, and we are not as much of a continuation of Leach as we thought, this isnt surprising.
