I remember a family member of his coming to his defense a number of times on here, saying how much his bought in the the culture and that he’ll be loyal to the cats. I seriously think that portal hoping is an addiction, play for a team and get their fix somewhere the next year.

Tracey Ford is going to be a bugger to recruit against.

Guys, Lonyatta finally found a home in Moscow. He means it. This is it. He’s been through so much.

I don't think we play Idaho next year. Regardless he wants to go to a throwing offense. Alexander is a great run blocker but I think he wants the rock more. My take? He's a great run blocker...
Yeah, I figured that’s why he went in the portal in the first place. Going to a rival school and competing for a title against your former team, well, whatever.
Am I a bad fan if I don't wish him good luck?

According to some on here- yes, absolutely!

Always a Cat!!! Don’t you know this?
If you go FBS Power 4, I have no problem with it. If you go G5 or FCS because you feel you didn't get the right amount of playing time or balls thrown your way? Sounds to me like you're going to have employment problems later in life!

Yeah it's gonna get interesting. His brother has sent a lot of talent our way for the past decade from the PNW.

It's a bad look, period. And to think of the time and effort given him to get him eligible to play. What a waste! And I agree 100%, team hopping is no different than job hopping. You're unreliable and not worth the risk.

We’ll still get ours, but I was hoping for a bit of a relieve after Eck. Certainly doesn’t look like we’re going to get that.

Well honestly not surprised. Sanstead has the job, deserves the job. and they brought in a high school kicker too for backup.

I've been saying this for a while: For the vast majority of players, transferring has little or nothing to do with NIL or NFL prospects.

Gotta admit, I'm flummoxed by this one though: Academics? How much nicer it is to live is Moscow than Bozeman? Prettier girls? Closer to home?

Hard to think that theres anything here other than the chance to be the #1 receiver on a team that has an outside shot at making the playoffs instead of a rotational piece for a national title contender.

Two high school kickers incoming and I don’t think anyone should be surprised Casey moved on to another school.

Oh there's 2, only remembered one. Yes totally not surprised with this.

I thought we were done after yesterday though. Frustrating to see more transfers today.

Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

Well on the flip side. At least we know what they got and they definitely did not replace the WR’s they lost.

I'm generally pretty understanding about transfers but Lonyatta's and Johnson's are just a mistake

Oh well. We move on and hopefully land a few guys who can improve the roster.

I know building depth and developing talent is awesome, however, I do think some good news of some in coming transfers would lighten the mood. It’s bizarre to me that we don’t have one incoming announcement

All I'll say is this young man left for reasons outside of football... cut him a little slack. I will not divulge his personal business but him leaving has nothing to do with msu or football.

I think it seems pretty obvious he wants to be in an offense that passes more and he’s more of a focal point…what’s confusing is why he came here in the first place. I don’t think it’s a huge loss, but it’s definitely frustrating.
