RS Freshman Jerekius Davis NOT leaving the program

[CajunEXPRESS]

Can't wait to see the spin on this one.

The spin, kids are transfering at ever increasing numbers all across the college landscape. It's not a UL, or Marlin problem.

I don't agree, but that'll be the spin.

This is just my opinion, but it's common sense: I'm a 19 year old with 4 years of eligibility. I just watched a team go .500 with an NBA player and most of its returning roster from the previous season. I just saw a popular player get run off (Hedge), a local player choose to leave (allegedly), and now an entire city is going to be relying on me to be the next big thing?

I think I'll take my talents to Southern Miss, who is on the come.

There was relative stability between that offseason and this one. What exactly are you referring to?

Our recruiting class retention rate is horrible. There is an alarming trend that seems to have taken place now for some years where, for whatever reason(s), we cannot retain our recruits and have lost a significant amount of the kids that did commit to which they never produced or contributed to the program at all.

Get ready to love on Marlin next year, maybe more... In their infinite wisdumb, Farmer gave him that big extension...with Tjoes approval!!!

Well that sure was a bad decision to redshirt this kid.

Never redshirt your best recruit.

There were over 700 transfers last year. And about 100 mid-season transfers. Not sure of that as a percentage and where we fall into that as a program or where Marlin is in that. Just looked it up because one one hand, it seems like we have had a lot but then it might just be perception.
And havent we had kids transfer IN?

The grass is ALWAYS greener on the other side of the fence.

Because there is usually more fertilizer over there.

Because there is usually more fertilizer over there.

Or a septic tank.
