Spring Transfer Portal

Agree, this would put us in a horrible spot but I'll refrain from disrespecting TVD unless it becomes official. Until then these are just rumors and TVD is still QB1.

You know Bama better than anyone on here, as you are their number 1 fan. What is the inside scoop?

There are about 50-100 kids out there that just lost a QB competition.

That's true. To be fair, most of them are Jarren Williams types at best, or the Peyton Matocha permanent backup types. I'd be surprised if 5 guys we'd want as our starters enter the portal. Got to back channel this stuff ahead of time, and I highly doubt the staff expected TVD to be antsy and were putting in the work needed to have confidence they could get someone who is plug and play.

Disagree. Plenty of good QB's out there who just lost a QB race. Look at Texas, UCLA and UGA as examples. Plus we've seen guys with a lot of starting experience bolt for $ or a better situation too along the way. Hartman, Armstrong, Newman, DJ Ugawhateverthe****, the BC kid who went to PITT, etc. And on and on.

I would laugh my a$$ off. Please be true…FSU collapse + he’s not the answer for Ohio St. Win win.
It's on twitter. Has to be true. /s

Definitely made that one up - Travis's only chance to succeed is continuity with Norvell and that system. All the more reason I'm shocked about TVD - why would you entertain transferring 4 months before kick-off in your money year in a system that fits you and personnel that you're familiar with? 4 months isn't enough time to get comfortable.

Had this happened in December/January - I'd totally buy it.

Normally I’d agree with you. Sounds fishy…but from the Ohio St side of things, I do know they’re not happy with the QB room. That was from both a player and someone higher up. Spring game wasn’t good and they were looking to add someone. I just didn’t expect his name to be thrown out considering FSU will be a top 10 team preseason, so maybe it’s bs.

Had to delete my previous post but I’m waiting on more concrete info than just Twitter. I don’t know if they’d be willing to pony up a ton of cash for him as a rental of sorts.
