Transfer Portal Comings and Goings

[AUTiger1]

Pat Boone is too old to be coaching football.  Besides, he has no ties to Troy.

Wrong Pat!  It's this one!

[Buzz Killington]

I thought Pat Sumerall was dead?

If he’s not dead, someone sure played a dirty joke on him.

Pat has a date tonight with Terry

On Thursday mornings during foosballz season, our local sports talk show has Bryan Matthews from Rivals, on to talk Auburn pigskin and other goings ons.  So, the host asks him about the portal and specifically, the rumors about Bo possibly leaving.  Matthews didn't have any inside 411, but I was stunned to hear him say in a very matter of fact way, "Yeah, it would be best if Bo just went ahead and transferred out to a smaller school.  He's had 3 years at Auburn and he needs to finish up somewhere else."

Then, the host asked him if he thought that would automatically make Finley the #1 guy at QB. "No, they would definitely look at the portal for a starting quarterback."

Probably just one man's opinion, because I'm a firm believer that the majority of these reporters, journalists, bloggers etc. don't know jack shit. But what if he does?

This seems to be the prevailing thought amongst the "insiders" and beat guys. That if Bo is gonna waffle like this, just go ahead and go, and that Auburn is prepared for it if he does.

What has Bo said?  I haven't seen anything because I don't twatters.  Apparently, he's said something.

He has said he won't be paying any child support and that Harbinger is a punk bitch.  Otherwise, I have no idea why peoples think he may transfer.

See, I think people are reading way too much into innocent statements like those.

He said he wants to get his ankle healed up and then discuss it.
So he just trolled all of the hacks.

I agree with you but at the same time he could have laid the rumors to rest if he’s being serious.

He’s either being serious about not knowing what he wants next year or he is indeed trolling these press guys getting them in a tizzy.

I'd lean more towards him being honest about not knowing what he's going to do.  If the guy will call Bama out in the press for getting all the calls, he probably doesn't mince words.

[CCTAU]

He is (ironically) the only back on the roster that had the top end speed to turn that edge consistently against Bama and was used NONE in that regard.

I’m not sure who you were watching, but he struggled to “turn that edge”. He was however fast if he was already moving in they direction/

Shivers has track speed. A round track. With turns. Including the “edge”.

Name one time other than the iron bowl. And he almost slipped down on that run. Kid has no cut upfield.
