Tate Martell is unlikely to get a waiver. One of those 3 (Jarren/N'Kosi/Weldon) will start this season. So there's a chance that 2 transfers but not all 3.

Since the transfer rules were modified last year, 50 out of 63 (79%) applicants got a waiver. Couple that with the toxic environment at OSU, and I think Martell is very likely to get the waiver.
 
If it’s the qb, good luck to him . I can’t see him playing until 4 maybe 5 years down the road. That’s not because of his talent but I think Jarren/martell will have the reins for the next 2-3 years

Could absolutely be true. But it's also true that Jarren considered leaving a few times already (even if completely justified), so there's a flight risk. There's a boot risk with Weldon and Kosi. That leaves 1 in Martell, who may/may not be eligible and when he is, only has 2 years left. You need depth for competition. You need depth for scout team. You need depth for injuries. I'm ok with too much QB depth each and every year.

And we can talk 2020 QBs but we have gotten burned soooo many times by that logic. If he isn't a late bloomer who can realistically earn snaps at UM, at least he can learn and practice with some big league talent before see what other options are out there. If he develops and can play.....good for us.

Really hope you are right - worried his quote about wanting to compete with Field isnt held over his head
- that and his attorney saying, "we are going throw everything at the wall" reeks of desperation as opposed to a concrete argument

His attorney’s public comments were beyond dumb. Let’s hope he wisens up.
 
That's perfect. As long as we're never in a position where a guy like Malik Rosier "gives us the best chance to win".

Malik is forever Cane family since he is or will be a graduate. Plus he was big part of most exciting season we have had since Berlin. I would love always have a guy on the team who could win close games and win 10 games when he has a good defense. It is coach's job to make sure there are others who can keep him on the bench.

People on here consistently underrate the importance of the impact lack of depth has on practice, competition, etc.

This.

Not one QB on our roster is reliable for 2019 so we better cover our asses

I laughed at “flight risk”
