Baker Mayfield transferring from TTU?
- Thread starter UNIGuy4Cy
- Start date
We were interested but he told the staff he didn't want to leave the state of Texas so we didn't bother to offer him. He wanted to go to TCU but they didn't offer so he walked on at Tech.
We have 5 scholarship QB's with decent potential. Develop any one of them into a good player and problem solved.
Except that he only finished one season like that. If you are saying that danny mac was a poverty stricken version of the pirate, then you may be on to something

5/6 seasons we had at least 7 wins, one with 9 wins. I would take that in a heartbeat if offered now...
I think (hope) Rhoads will have a nice bounce back next season much like McCarney did from '03-'04.
When Jim Harbaugh or Saban takes over Texas the NCAA will allow him to transfer to Austin without penalty. In fact they may give him an extra year since he did not play every game.

Weird situation, really curious what the "miscommunication" was. How big of a Diva can a true freshmen walk-on be?

My bet is along the lines the others have said. Was told he could walk on with a chance at a scholarship, started half of the season, and is probably not getting a scholarship.
He probably thought that this warranted a scholarship and Kliff probably wasn't going to give him one. He has the talent to go to a big school and not have to pay for school to play ball. Don't blame him.

"Coach, the walk on QB who saved our bacon wants a scholly."
"Screw him, what's he gonna do - walk? Tell him we don't have one available."
"Uh, Coach, I'm right here. Walk is exactly what I am going to do. See ya!"

I would imagine he wants to be enrolled at a new school by the next semester, especially if on scholarship.
IDK, I think it would be a very odd decision by Kingsbury to deny him a scholarship. If this was basketball that would make sense to me but surely out of the 85(?) scholarships they could find one for the current starting QB, who at worst would be a seasoned capable back up next year.
