not if you earned an undergraduate degree at the program you are transferring from, or transfer to an FCS school, like in the case of Zerrick Cooper.

I don't pull for UNCheat unless they are playing the coots (meaning I hope they win the first game).

He has to sit out this year. I think this is the 3rd highly ranked DB to transfer to the tarholes this year. I hope he gets beat in every game that he plays in because I hate the holes.

Luckily for us with our depth we will still be fine in the secondary even with that loss. Im guessing it was PT related? No telling with the tarholes.. free basketball tickets thrown in?

I believe he saw the new recruits and knew he wouldn’t start. Boone is very special, lock down CB.
He may have had an injury and wanted to workout a year the try to start for unc.
He definitely had contact w/unc but I believe Dabo knew well before this.
The bright side we have another scholarship for a player like Joe Ngata’s brothet or another TE, LB or DE.

Unc sites say our coaches spent the whole week trying to talk him out of it, who knows we will be fine this year and in the future. I am more concerned about our safety play than corners for this year.

Yep. Tarholes are trash!!!!!
I’m pawsitive Dabo and staff had the best advice he could get from anyone and then wished the young man well.
Personally, I think he’s crazy for transferring. Why would you Not want to learn from the best? That’s what puzzles me...

The thing that baffles me is the McMichael was so highly thought of as a player. He was supposed to be a star in waiting. If he was right behind AJ, that is no shame. Maybe McMichael IS very good, which frustrates me that this has happened.
Contact between a player and another school/their staff...even an intermediary...should NEVER be allowed. The ONLY type of communication should be via some sort of NCAA-established communication council that operates within strict rules (e.g., coaching staffs could provide general information regarding possible openings to transfers, which players could search for info).
Having said all of that, if a player does not ultimately want to be a Tiger, it is best that he leave. It isn't good for the locker room/morale. What I mean by "ultimately" is after there has been a legitimate chance with the staff and all, as some players get homesick or upset at any disappointment, yet, after some counsel and maturity, they very much change their minds and become Tigers for life.

He really didn't play a whole lot last year
Jul 20, 2019, 2:57 PM

and he didn't look good in the spring game. Goodrich got more playing time. Jones is the real deal for sure, and everyone seems to think that Booth will be too.

Agree, Sheridan Jones us the best DB i have seen in a spring game since Christian Wilkins the year before! But seriously... That dude looks like a future star.

prior to yesterday.
I think we need to hit the portal for a couple of thin positions.

We aren't thin anywhere but maybe TE
Jul 20, 2019, 7:27 PM

and we've got a lot of WR to catch the ball instead of TEs

This happened after the summer position roster ..
Jul 20, 2019, 8:59 PM
|

was released. I am sure he saw Derion as a starter after he didn't even play that position last year. Then add in the skills Sheridon showed in the Spring game. Pretty sure he saw the writing on the wall. Then we brought in like 6 DBs. May have been his best move? Hate seeing guys leave the team though!

My guess is watching Booth in summer workouts was the final straw. Kyler knew he didn't measure up to the other CBs. He wants to be on the field.
I have no problem with his decision because it doesn't hurt the team in any way. Won't miss him at all.
Wish him well.

Probably has very good straight-line speed, but has the build of RB. The majority of his position group(-LeWill):have the prototype build of a lock down NFL CB(or close to it), can probably best his straight line speed, have better hip flexibility, lateral quickness, and agility. Good problem to have for us, maybe he possesses the rare self-awareness to see the reality of his situation, due to predominantly unforeseen circumstances. Can't subscribe to the "GD quitter should have sucked it up & resigned himself to coming off the bench, for the remainder of his eligibility, and liked it" viewpoint. I do wish he would have made this decision a couple of months earlier.

What does a few months earlier do? Our 2019 class was not looking to fill up late. Seems like we already kept 1 scholarship in out pocket.
I agree with everything else and I also bet the Tarholes talk their "victory" up. I am sure Kyler was asked to stay but not at the level they are said to making it out to be.
