Someone was going to leave; it was inevitable. He was almost certainly behind at least four guys - Scarbrough, D Harris, Jacobs, and N Harris. Possibly even Robinson. At least three of those guys are going to be here for a while. I hate it didn't work out, but I don't think it's too impactful.

Aaron Robinson transferring does concern me, though, just from a standpoint of how we've recruited cornerbacks the last few years. We need some of these guys to stick and to work out.

I hate to lose him and Robinson. I really thought Robinson would play this year

This writing was on the wall as soon as Najee showed up this spring. He will make a good one for some team without a backfield full of 5 stars.

I thought Emmons had really shown some dynamic potential. Someone is going to get a damn good RB. Any word on where they are headed? And this was necessary to get under the 85 wasn't it? If not, the kicker Bulovas just picked up a scholarship

We should be at 84 now. Hopefully Parks gets the spot

He can't. He's a casualty of the 25 rule, not the 85 rule.

It's stupid.

We have less than 85 scholarship players and have a kid who has to wait until January to enroll.

fricking dumb.

BJ makes sense and I expected it at some point. Robinson makes no sense at all. What's up with our DBs transferring when they are in line for playing time? Mo Smith, Sheffield, Robinson...starting to wonder about our new DB coach a little. Gotta keep and develop guys.

Glad Aaron Robinson is gone. We don't need guys like him. Check out this pic he posted then deleted. LINK

Thought Emmons was really a great player, but it won't harm them too much considering how deep they are at that position. And I agree with the guy above - if Robinson feels that way about the program, he could only be a negative force in the locker room.

I wish him the best! Kind of hard to blame him in a lot of ways with all the talent at RB.

Basically, he said he wanted to head back to South Florida and Frick the University of Alabama.

We've done okay there. Shy Carter, Jared Mayden, Nigel Knott, Trevon Diggs are all young and McDonald comes in this year

BJ Emmons was my favorite runner. He ran with a violent attitude. Some team just lucked out
