[TheRichtShow]

Per Ryan Easterling, who writes for Illinois's 247 site, DL Tito Odenigbo is grad transferring here. Last year had 29 tackles, 4.5 TFL, and 1 sack. Anyone heard about this?

Judge for yourself, but dude seems like a head-case to me.... In my experience, coaching these type of guys they'll only play at their best level when you **** them off.

Otherwise, he'll be a dud because of focus issues. Dude will probably get distracted by a dragonfly flying over the field:

Savage move on Richt's part to flex on these officials. Dude ain't playing.

Bowl game was the warning. This is the punishment.

Not necessarily true. If he can come in for spring its a no brainer from a numbers standpoint.

Silly question...are grad transfers on scholarship? Seems like a pretty sweet deal getting a graduate scholarship from the U.

Even if we hit on our DL targets, a grad transfer is still a need. Guys like Briggs and Chatman aren't going to be able to play inside as freshmen. and Martin looks like a bust.

A grad transfer 3 tech, which this Tito kid is, seems like a fit. And this is probably as good as the market is at that position. Good DTs without issues aren't looking to find a new school for their 5th year.

Did not expect him to sound like that

I don't get why, if you're a ref, you're throwing a flag up in the middle of a crowd of people. It hit him and he threw it back to the ref. Albeit with a little spice, but still

We simply need the bodies. A one year rental, he will probably be our 4th guy at best. I’m fine with this but no I don’t expect him to actually light it up for us or anything but we need depth for spring and fall practices. Simple as that.

lol between that and the silly *** wave at the very beginning, I'm over here like wtf man hahaha.

Probably trying to keep it low key until after signing day so it doesn’t give any recruits a reason to look elsewhere

Did you ever listen to Walter Payton talk?

Has nothing to do with our recruiting this year. Only a moron would think it’s a sign of how recruiting is going.

Good pickup even if he plays a rotational roll. We get a solid guy who’ll allow to RS one of the DT’s.
