2023-2024 Portal Thread

I was really surprised when Howard announced he was transferring out of K-State because he always seemed like a Wildcat through and through. I just assumed he was looking for a big NIL payday.

I don't know that our NIL pocketbooks are any deeper here than they are in Manhattan. I would expect him to land at a bigger school. I would take him if he wanted to come though. We obviously have a spot to fill after Gunnar's departure.
Who does K-State lose? Maybe he wouldn’t have the surrounding pieces returning to protect him.
 
We should be jumping on every good portal QB available. We can't worry about Bowman's waiver decision. Most likely, he won't be granted an extra year, but even if he is, we need someone better if we can get 'em.
Depends on if Flores really is as good as some are saying. I have no idea but I'm sure we are evaluating who we actually have a shot at and if they are truly an upgrade.

If we can't find (or afford) someone that's definitely better, I'd take Bowman back in a heartbeat. Great leader who took us to the championship game without 4 of his top 6 receivers for most of the year. And if Flores is good enough to beat him out then that's even better.

I know they're going to lose their stud offensive lineman Cooper Beebe to the NFL, but I'm not sure how much they lose beyond that. A lot of K-State fans think Avery Johnson was going to pass him on the depth chart if he stayed. Maybe that played a part in his decision.

Agreed! I would love the possibility of defenses having to scheme against the RPO with OGII and Will Howard running or throwing. I also like how he extends the play when there is pressure in the pocket instead of throwing it away immediately. I also like his TD/INT ratio.

How well do you really know Gundy

Did you not get enough of RPO with Spencer Sanders?

I turned on the sports blitz (I know) and Dean said (I know.. I know) he had a source saying we’re going to the portal for QB. What’s the word around Stillwater? Anything from RA (*sigh* I knooow.. I’m desperate for something)
