Who had that on their bingo card?

[MarshallFan64]

This is actually very surprising

[mu1995]

This one does shock me, but kids want to play.  Would love to see Marshall keep him home.

[THECHAMPISHERE]

Wow. Does this move the needle slightly towards a dumpster fire in the athletic department and away from Huff being the bad guy?

Can we even field a team for the bowl game?

[HaveUherd]

Are we going to have a qb for the bowl game?

[MUfan08]

Would be something if he followed Huff haha

He probably doesn't want to be the sacrificial lamb in another bowl game where he gets put behind a patched line and gets hit on every play.

Oh well

[herdorbust2]

I heard there are tryouts Wednesday morning to field a team.

[gochneaur645]

Not surprising at all. I think we had seen enough to know he was never getting meaningful playing time here again.

[herdfan129]

I was actually looking forward to watching him in the bowl game and seeing if he could be the guy next year.

Oh well. No bad things to say about him. I wish him luck wherever he goes.

[bbcard1]

I think we are down to Parachek and Long.

[Scottyo614]

Let's go Long!

[BipolarFan]

I heard there are tryouts Wednesday morning to field a team.

The Replacements: College

[herdfan129]

Even better is this doesn?t count against Long?s eligibility. He will still be able to redshirt.

[muherd34]

This doesn?t surprise me one bit.  Thought he would transfer down asap.

[MUfan08]

The Replacements: College

Might need to see who all on here, HN and social media for Marshall have eligibility left haha

[CharlestonHerdGuy]

This doesn?t surprise me one bit.  Thought he would transfer down asap.

Same here. I wondered if he might not go somewhere else seeking PT.

[Johns1124]

This doesn?t surprise me one bit.  Thought he would transfer down asap.

Does not surprise me. It does he did it now. Might as well stuck around and see if he could play in the bowl.

Unless.... He already knows he wouldn't have.

It could be like that movie where Mark Wahlberg tries out for the Eagles.

[herdfan129]

Given the date of our bowl game, they almost have to declare before. The portal closes the same day we have our bowl game.

[Thundering In MD]

Hope he finds snaps.  Incredible kid.

I typically say "who?" when someone mentions Andy Taylor or someone else who leaves.  I won't say that about Cole.  Great kid.

[gochneaur645]

Nothing is certain yet, but there are now serious talks about whether or not we'll actually be playing the bowl game.

[herd1990]

No offense to Cole but if he was gonna be "the guy" we we were screwed any way.  I see him doing well at a Morehead or EKU.  Not at this level.

[Johns1124]

Does not surprise me. But where are you getting this info. They better decide soon to get a replacement.

Where did you hear that?  Wouldn't be surprised.....
