Or not.

That sucks.

Or not.

Interesting

 

[DuxburyO]

Welcome Cody. Now help us win.

Never mind Cody.

 

[bigmike]

Gonna be positive here and wildly speculate that residence on the 2 deep was not there for him.

Or not.

This gif has never felt more apt.

This isn't going the right way.

Twelve days after officially joining Syracuse football, redshirt junior offensive lineman Cody Shear has electively left the program, SU Athletics confirmed to 247Sports. Shear transferred in from Arizona State earlier this month after playing previously for Oregon. He did not immediately respond to a message inquiring about his decision.

Maybe our o-line is doing better than some people would like to think.

I need to invent an app that lets you get your time back for things like this.

It will have to involve a DeLorean, because why not do it style.

 

[orangencpolice]

I wonder where he will end up, if anywhere?

People complain when we don't pound the portal.

People complain when we pound the portal.

If we are going to pound something lets make a lasting impression...

Maybe the pounding was just too much?

It's like everything in life:
Some days you're the pounder.
Some days you're the portal.

I for one am going to remember that time in his Syracuse career when he

I'm thinking that's exactly the case

This is not unique. Here is an article about a UB Bulls transfer that lasted all of two days:

Transfer portal system provides college athletes with options but no guarantees

In its three years, the transfer portal has changed the dynamic of recruiting, a heavily regulated but loosely enforced practice that’s vital to the fabric of college sports.

The beckoning siren song of the transfer portal is too much for some mere mortals.

Bingo.

Easy come, easy go!

At this point, I’m waiting for Eric Dungey to retroactively enter the portal and wipe out 2018.

So half this thread is happy now?

I'm troubled by this. I don't get all the joking, all the dismissive attitude.

We have "not enough" line depth on either side of the ball. 3 guys, including the TE, have left in a week.

What the heck is going on here? How do you chase away players that quickly?

I am going to be mad as hell if we're 4 games into the season, and we don't have enough linemen, or enough of any position where so many people transferred away.
