Maurice Smith Alabama DB transfer

Maurice Smith's mom says Nick Saban blocking transfer to Georgia

Mother of Maurice Smith says Nick Saban blocking son's transfer from Alabama Crimson Tide to Georgia Bulldogs

"We have told him, 'Because we support the SEC rule, it would not be in your best interest to have to sit out. If you want to go some place else [outside the SEC], we'd be glad to help you do that,'" Saban said.

You need to get a grad-transfer approved too? I thought once you had that bachelor's you can go where you want as long as you enroll in a graduate course your original school doesn't offer.

The benefit for a grad transfer is that he can play immediately after he gets approval from his school to transfer. Whereas, a non-grad transfer always has to sit out a year unless he transfers down to FCS.

Alabama's graduation ceremony is held on the 6th. Probably should get an answer relatively soon. Once Smith graduates, ol' Nicky doesn't have much of a say on where this kid goes. You'd think other players would see this situation and think twice about going there.

Graduation ceremony doesn't mean actual graduation. Depending on school, grades may not be entered by then. Knowing how rabid Alabama fans are, it wouldn't be beneath them for an instructor to hold him back.

Yeah...it really depends on the institution. I went to UCF and my grades were in right around the time I graduated. Wouldn't surprise me if his are done a week later.

yeah the logic of "if he doesn't want to be here f him" is a little much....technically, artie burns saiid LSU was his dream school and wanted to go there but picked UM for various reasons instead....get elite talent on campus however we can

Yeah and it's been AWHILE since they put out a 1st round DB. It would've been Honey Badger if he wasn't a complete a$sclown

I figured the word AWHILE in CAPS would've put things in perspective for you. Pat Pete been in the league for 5 years.

Guess your definition of "a while" differs from mine.

2015 top 10 WR in his class Daylon Charlot announced his transfer from Alabama. Brad Kaaya wished him luck. Then wrote there have been some ups and downs but coming to Miami was the best decision I've made.

I don't want the kid at Miami. I hope he is allowed to go to Georgia.

I don't want you on this forum

I don't want the kid at Miami.

I wouldn't expect a fan of another program to want UM to upgrade our roster.

Porter said Miami expects Smith if appeal fails

Thanks. We will have a good read on our team in a couple of weeks. We could have Wright, Mullins and Smith in the fold.

 

[pumbaa]

Wonder if Smith would ball our just to prove he is a beast or if he would be ****y he couldnt get into GA?

 

[davidb1]

We need this kid on the starting unit

Maurice Smith is a Quitter. We don't need Quitters. We are trying to rid our program of Golden's Gems.

Plus, you clowns are only clamoring for this guy because he played at Bama. So what. Bama's Secondary players are suspect. I like what we have. Let's coach them up and get them experienced and not waste time with this overrated quitter.

I don't like what we have at CB now. That depth chart as it currently stands will cost us a game or two this season.
