I never understand these decisions.. if you're good, you will get to an NFL camp with the opportunity to make a team. Transferring to another school does nothing for you especially if you have zero chance of getting drafted regardless if you went to App state and started every game??

As a senior, I'm sure Coach Richt still wanted him to be a team player show some leadership and help add competition and depth. Coach Richt has NFL ties if you were good enough an NFL team would've given you a look regardless if you got beat out by better players.

There are situations like this, where I don't think he was good enough to get exposure on Miami, so I don't think he'll do much in the NFL, and ones like Colbert, stuck in a bad situation with Texas, and Delaney.

Of course Linder has zero chance to ever make an NFL roster lol

I'm just trying to figure out how is getting more "exposure" going to change that? Let's say he goes to FAMU and looks like a FAMU college football level all American on the oline.... he's still going to be compared with players that are better than him when it comes to nfl consideration.

Id rather ride the bench at UM then get one year starting at a school that means nothing to me and adds no benefit to my goals.

He can probably get a free masters degree out of this decision. That's about $100k. That, plus his UM degree is all he is going to earn from football.

That all may sound good with respect to Richt's NFL contacts, but they wouldn't be good contacts long if he sent them players who couldn't perform. Linder may NEED the extra year; I think it's a good idea for him, because aside from practice, he wouldn't be contributing much.

Transferring, providing that program allows him to develop and build his confidence, gets him more reps and reps make you better. Sitting doesn't make you better. Being a practice dummy doesn't make you better. good luck to him.
