Fully expected this for several weeks now.

New scenery will be good for Jake. He's a really good kid.

Unfortunately some of our fans were not as classy with him as he is being with them and that's unfortunate.

Social media has become the bane of our existence.

Any news on rumored transfer destinations?

I think he would excel at a school like Wisconsin, for example - strong defense and running game, tall WRs that catch 50/50 balls.

If I'm Mark Dantonio at Sparty, I make a big push for him. They run a pro-style offense and he likely on has 1 more year anyway. I think Jake would do better against B10 defenses.

Shouldn’t he have run out of eligibility like a decade ago?

UofSC fans we're talking about?

Yep, that make sense. Y'all should be ashamed for treating him like that; he should still be in high school.

We need grief counselors provided on the University's dime for frick's sake. Everything going down at the same time and Dakereon should be announcing his transfer any day now as well.

But he will be better at a school like Florida! Am I right?

I didn't realize he didn't want to play football anymore. He has the same chance at Bama as Humble Llama does in the nfl and Mac Jones sucks arse.

I really hope those rumors turn out to be untrue but who knows at this point.

With Doty still planning to sign in a few days perhaps Joyner sees the writing on the wall. He should stay though, although I keep hearing that Werner and he were very very close so maybe he's waiting to see where Werner lands?

They are telling him playing time along with UGA. He told Muschmap he will not go to UGA out of respect to WM. However Utah is calling him a lot, more so than any other program. He does have coaching as a fall back though, hence the bama consideration as well

He definitely needed to go get coaching somewhere else if he wants any shot at the nfl

If he does to Utah, I'll go see him play for the Utes.

Poor kid.
I'm pretty sure he's talking about you and the rest of your classy cronies when he mentions "all the noise and the people who try to bring you down."
I bet he can't get out of Columbia fast enough. I hope Hilinski is watching how you treated him. He's next on the fans' hit-list.

Didn't one of our RBs transfer to Utah last season? He was having a pretty good year too last I remember. Or was that BYU?

Wish him nothing but the best, but I’m fine with who we have. I had zero faith that he could win ball games
