Really? Last time I looked Troy and USA was still in Alabama.

Relax. He is just saying the dirty politics here is enough to make people want to run far away. He wasn't trying to slap Troy or USA.

The remaining players who stay at UAB are supposed to continue on scholarship as long as their grades are good enough. Will they continue for the duration to get the benefit of tutoring and other academic services as well?

I believe that was confirmed. Although, I'm not sure if it will be at the same capacity.

Staples to Louisville.

Yes & what "you don't know what you don't know" is that I'm an original USA football club member from the first iteration of club football in the mid 80's so I'm more than glad to see many Blazers down in my old stomping grounds on something I helped start that is bearing the fruits of those labors.

I anticipated that USA would experience significant growth, but I never expected it to be from so many UAB transfers. I hope they show up well now that they are in "LA". Please keep us informed of their playing time and team status as the spring practice rolls around. I would expect that the players from UAB will greatly simplify FBHC Jones' task as NSD comes on Feb. 4th.

Uniek Crumbley to Albany State.

Rolan Milligan Jr. to Toldeo.

I wonder if transferring players might be allowed to put a small Blazer head sticker on their helmets as teams often do when a player or someone close to their program dies. That would give game announcers something to talk about and thereby keep the topic before the public next season.

Parrish Huddleston to Tenn-Martin

I guess since it's a new term for colleges, we'll really start to see the exodus of players now

I figured this. McGee tried to get him to go with him to begin with.

Geeze. I'm beginning to think the only people consulted on the program being shut down were in Mobile. I'm joking but damn. The Jags have gotten a windfall outta this.

Jones...one of Bahrs boys

Greg Macklin and T.J. McCollum to WKU.

To Georgia State:
Safety Bobby Baker
Cornerback Demarco Davis
Offensive Lineman Kelepi Folau
Wide Receiver Nyiakki Height
Running Back Demarcus Kirk

We have turned USA into a contender for top 25 and a big bowl.
