    You never know with these things....UF could've scheduled the visit, asked for the player's transcripts and after admissions stopped laughing, quietly let him know that he wouldn't be a candidate for transfer and good luck in the future. We are all just speculating in most recruiting matters.

    According to the player, he wasn't being compensated for the agreement he made. I'm thinking this might be similar to the FSU basketball scenario and eventually wind up in court.

    Such a crappy way to run College Football. All the moronic people in charge that thought this would be the best way to run College Football should be tarred and feathered.

    I personally forgot James Houston the day he learned how to use other people's credit cards as a charter member of the Knucklehead Nine.

    He played against UF while he was at UT in 2020. IMO, he was the best of QB's that they rolled out that night, but that doesn't mean he was good. Of course that was his true Freshman season...apparently he got beat out by Hooker the following Fall.

    If needed, he could win the lesser games, but the big games were probably sunk anyway

    He is serviceable, decent game against Washington at Sun Bowl. Big kid, physically looks like Trask.

    Anyway, the game is available on YouTube.

    What transfer portal?

    The power 4 conference commissioners, et al., need to FIRE the NCAA, especially their feckless lazyazz president that needs to be the first one to go.

    Then why do you even need a transfer portal?

    That's what the NCAA is essentially saying. There is now NO need for the portal.

    Wild, Wild West. You know that there will be "institutions" that will take advantage of this.

    I agree. But, you never know what will happen when people get their chance, like Kyle.
