James Blackman (FSU) in Transfer Portal again

This kid really impressed me filling in as a freshman..

 

[CuseLegacy]

He is in the portal with fellow team mates Naesir Upshur and George Campbell. FSU may need a bigger portal.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

He must really mean it this time...

I wouldnt mind him. I think he could be productive in our offense and he's has a lot of ACC experience.

 

[PatMark]

This sounds like Norvell knows he's not good enough to play at FSU and told him it's time to move on.
No thank you.

 

[PhatOrange]

I would 100% give him a call. I think he’d be good in this offense.

Yeah, we’re not in position to turn down talent ... and he was good enough to start a bunch of games there

I doubt we reach out, but we need to be a bit more flexible with the position

Definitely should be some better transfer options out there but if we miss out on other guys I wouldnt totally be upset having Blackman. He wasnt great but I saw enough raw talent to know he could be better once he leaves a bad culture. FSU is a mess right now.

This is meaningless at this point, but looked up his recruiting profile anyway. Didn't realize he and Hockman from NC State committed to FSU in the same year.

But he was a 3 star, in the top 400, 16th best pro QB. Didn't seem to have the offer sheet that you'd think that would go along with that. Miami was in there, as was Louisville and WVU. But that was it from P5. Then a handful of G5s. Including all the Florida schools (Atlantic, International, etc.). I'd imagine he ends up at one of them.

4 star on rivals not that it matter now. There was some hype of him playing as a true freshman. Showed some early flash but that might have been a indication of how bad the QB room was at FSU lol

 

[Trueblue25]

He looked good being forced into play as a freshman and undoubtedly struggled during FSU’s coaching transitions.

if grades are in order I’d be happy if the staff reached out.

 

[Ringostar57]

Has game experience behind one of the worst offensive lines in FSU history.

 

[Cusedad2X]

Has game experience behind one of the worst offensive lines in FSU history.

Then, he'd probably do well here...lol

 

[OmahaCuse]

He is not what we need or want. FSU is worse than us maybe and he is a big part of the problem. Not accurate and prone to turnovers

Ouch, seems like a guy that should be moved to tight end

No thank you.

Because he’s not good enough for FSU he couldn’t possibly bring value to our team? News flash, we ain’t FSU.

Unfortunately no room there since this board has moved half the roster to TE or LB.

FSU would scull drag us around the stadium parking lot. We are by far the worst team in the ACC and it’s not close.

 

[orangepassion]

Would prefer a dual-threat guy like Schrader or Maybin, but wouldn't rule anyone out

 

[Eric15]

Blackman is definitely talented, but I don't know how he's able to absorb hits at this level with such a thin body.

Not close? Do you know how bad they are? Their offense is better but their defense is worse than ours

Well, with the proper dedication to strength and conditioning...

 

[gmoney44]

maybe I’m biased and just so frustrated with how inept we are once again as a team but I think FSU would mop the flor with us. What do you think the spread would be at the Dome like we should have had them this year?
