Thought with all the activity going on, we might want a separate thread for this. I'll try to keep track of the Outgoing and Incoming players on the first post.
Thank you kindly 2011 for doing this. Seems as though SIU is becoming a JUCO for some of these players. 2 years to improve, show off your skills, and look to move onto a bigger payday. So much for a college degree being the focus. Live for the moment.
Had an old friend that would say "don't let the door hit ya, where the good lord split ya!" and I could not agree more.
Strongly dislike this portal/NIL mule fodder. But, it is what it is. Embrace and replace.
GO DAWGS!!!
I would love to hear someone transferring say “I have no loyalty and do not care about my coaches and teammates, therefore I am entering the portal. Also, whoever I cheated on playing time or getting a scholarship, I don’t care about you either.”
I get tired of these guys with the thanking the coaches, the school, and their teammates for all that was done for them before they leave. Just go and be done with it.

Keontez Lewis is in the portal
Yeah our entire skill position group has basically transferred at this point.
that sucks - he and Middleton Ouchie!
Not all…#32
Vinson Davis hurts. Wondering why all the skill position players have decided to transfer? Coaching? Hmmmm
Hopefully he gets a better run in the big time than Hartup did. Can't really blame him if he gets a chance at Oklahoma.https://twitter.com/nolimitk3/status/1869522464541421662?s=46&t=7s0hTttieSER8wqRSA0LoA
We are officially a developmental league for FBS.
Hard to fault him…nice payday regardless of playing time. Something we just can’t offer. I expected him to leave…all the other WRs is a bit of a surprise. They aren’t getting big time offers yet, so I guess there is still time.
I think Middleton will get serious looks from FBS programs. He flashed some serious talent as a true freshman.Hard to fault him…nice payday regardless of playing time. Something we just can’t offer.

He might get some mid-tier FBS, but had he waited another year, I think he could have gotten some bigger offers IF he played like he did last year.
Wonder how Hill & Co. are doing in the transfer portal. They have to recruit a brand new group of WR’s and RB’s.
