If the kid has graduated, he deserves to go wherever he wants. If he isn't allowed to, that's seriously messed up.

Right?  I guess what happened is they released him to go play at UTEP and then when he changed his mind so did they.  I didn't realize players still had to get a release from their former team.  That's messed up man.

Similar to the OU QB wanting to transfer to WVU, same conference. Delton could have had this idea all along knowing KSU would block his request to go to a conference mate. So, Delton announced UTEP, let's the dust settle and then tries to move to TCU. I can see KSU's issue, but I have never liked that schools were allowed to do this.

I don’t understand the desire to transfer in conference. Before Baker Mayfield, it was standard operating procedure to block a kid from transferring to any school on your schedule over the rest of their playing career. KSU plays TCU every year. WVU plays OU every year. I don’t understand how this is a foreign concept all of a sudden.

I’m more interested in the next P5 D Tackle or D End grad transferring to North Texas.  Could care less for all other transfers to other schools.

The only reason I'm tracking it is because he could potentially end up at UTEP still, which would be a huge addition for them. And one thing I've noticed over the past couple of years is that QB scrambles have hurt a lot against our defense.  As close as the UTEP game was last year, it could get even closer if Delton ends up there next year.

This got me thinking, why don't we hear about linemen being graduate transfers? My memory could have failed, but I don't remember ever hearing about one.

Riley Mayfield, our starting RT for the past 2 years was a graduate transfer.

I hope he enjoys the Stockyards as much as he might have enjoyed Franklin Mountains.  Like Kansas' rural area that feeds Kansas State, Fort Worth is a place where he is sure to find many foods made of delicious beef.  If he's not muslim, he can also enjoy the many pork-themed bar-b-q joints in the greater Fort Worth-Weatherford-Benbrook Metro area.

This is some next level performance art, right?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
