As of Jan. 5, 2020, who is looking like a portal jumper before Spring ball?

[Brandinho]

Why does pope name keep popping up?

A bunch of people have said he was really close to transferring last year before Diaz took over

yeah last year. This a whole new year and he’s been working with his head down.

BC Williams is a cry baby front-runner. I was on the Williams train this off season bc kid has tools, but I never expected the level of immaturity that he has displayed this season...he can kick rocks and join Kentucky if he so desires

Agreed. But he has never mentioned the possibility of transferring to my knowledge. I think this is more of fans wanting him gone then the player wanting to leave. As soon as he loses the starting spot he is probably gone though.

 

[CanesFanNC]

Williams was leaving last year and was talking into staying.

Qbs do that if they aren’t playing, nature of that position

 

[brock]

Why y’all keep listing pope? He ain’t leaving, leave that man alone ****...

 

[orange&green84]

Think everyone on that list except for Pope is gone.

Baxa is a good young man, nut might be much better off at a lower profile college in his home state of Texas...TCU, TTech, SMU...he's done at Miami as our PK...also, don't think we want to waste a scholarship on a Kick off only Kicker.

 

[Canestomp]

Baxa is at the top of my list. I have a pet peeve with incompetence and in the land of incompetence Bubba is king.

I recall that the media had reported that he was contemplating the transfer portal in the middle of the season when Kosi was getting the start and he was healthy enough to play. It was the same week that he missed a day of practice bc he was pouting

 

[Silver King]

There's an old commercial fishing term: "Let 'em go Pompano"

 

[Home Slice]

Blake James need to be on that list

 

[Clwtrdan]

Baxa will stay and compete for the job. He's no quitter. He missed points that would have won us some games and he knows that better than anyone. He'll double down during the offseason and win back his job recruit or no recruit..

 

[duke4heisman]

I know I'll be in the minority, but I hope everyone other than Baxa stays from that list. I'd rather see them coached better and playing more inspired here than elsewhere.

Especially when we're already in the 70s on scholarship players. LOL let's just hope another handful of bodies leave.

Exactly.

Manny! Please God, let it be Manny.

Which Canes are looking to Portal jump between now and the first whistle of Spring Ball?

My quick guesses:
Pope
Polendy
J-Will
Tate
Baxa

EDIT: For the record, I'm not hoping any of them leave with the possible exception of the 2 QB's, but if they are pro team, then they can stay too.

Why would j will leave he the starting QB and kosi and Tate making it easy for him to stay the starter sadly

 

[BJ305]

I want pope to stay. Bubba is needed for kickoff.

Bubba can kick rocks the walk on kicker better then him

 

[BJ305]

Where is Baxa going?

Division 3

 

[A1cane]

I got 1 of the 3 main QBs leaving imo probably William's. Then I got steed and wilder retiring. Hilirey transfers. Baxa also. That's about it off the top of my head
