My understanding is that it was academics and that is why he didn't play.

i wouldn't put too much stock in the claims of bitter ND internet insiders. you can't transfer in bad academic standing.
I also wouldn't discount how damn weird the last 12 months have likely been for college students.
There were a record number of transfers, and I think COVID is at least partially responsible for that.

What would Covid have to do with it? It’s more that no one has to sit out.
In his new article Brandon mentions how freshmen didn't get spring practices and had to do stuff online for so long. Seems like it would have slowed a lot of young players ability to get play time.
He was very productive at FCS but he is very small. He is a LB and not a safety. He will need at least 10 more pounds.
His size is not nearly ideal but our LB room is poor. He will probably start here.
Smart kid, I watched an interview he did a week or so ago. He is definitely playing LB.

Not putting any stock in internet insiders. I politely disagree. From those I know who went to ND or taught there, they are very strict about academics and sports. And don't be too sure about not being able to transfer after trouble with academics.
Looks like a small Pat Jasinski. Decent player but his weaknesses were exploited by other teams quite a bit. Speed will be tough for him to adjust to.
Not a fan either, but I trust Gus. Nothing gets approved without his stamp, so there must be a reason
I like it, 2x FCS All American. Doubtful any of our current linebackers could go to FCS and do that. He’s small, but gotta be an upgrade if not for added depth. We need a 1 year stop-gap.
are we sure he's on scholarship?
I understand that Gus and the new staff started from a difficult position due to poor recruting and evaluations from Jabba The Heup and the Acolytes.
It was very obvious to me that talent was poor in all the position groups but QB.
Gus was forced to take many transfers and he is not done. Believe me, under other conditions he would not offer some of the transfers we are bringing in.
This is an important year, we have to show improvement over last year. Noticeable improvement. Gus is betting that we can win now.
We really need to win as the 2022 high school class will be 15 or less players. We need to set the table for 2023.

T-Will is a great recruiter and he will upgrade the talent in the LB room. It will happen soon but right now it's bad.

Hard to get much of the college experience when most of you are at home taking classes online.
It wasn't a typical college experience for anyone, so a lot of guys didn't really get any time to adjust.
That has nothing to do with transferring. Plenty of freshmen played. You are either good or not. It didn’t matter where they went. Why transfer? It’s not Covid because that’s everywhere.
I disagree. When people are unhappy, many times, they look for a change. Could be for a variety of reasons - playing time, perceived not fitting in, etc. Who knows.
Yes I agree. But if they have to sit out they usually give it more time. The not sitting out is the big factor in why so many are transferring.
Yes next year. The last 6 or so have been 2022. The transfers are taking away from next year. That’s why some weren’t happy with an undersized LB from FCS with only 1 year left.
So many players transfer these days after each season. We typically recruit between 18-20 players in December these days. We get scholarships freed up in January to do second part of process which welcomes in transfers. Lastly it's hard to keep up with real numbers because players jump ship to other schools during the year after being committed to us for months. So what is the real scholarship count? I gave up asking this question about 2-3 years ago.
He will walk on chill out brah
Stop pretending that you know anything SHACKET and take your place in the backseat of the car.
Lol, ok big guy. You're right, panic about the backup longsnapper.
I'm wondering what you mean by back seat?
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t racist. I think he said he was black a while ago.
Kids ride in the back seat of the car. Alphas like me always drive the car.
Thank you. I dont know Shacket's race and his race doesn't matter to me.
I am half Asian and half Hispanic. Race has nothing to do with a sports discussion.
