also @Coach Robby says we're getting an OL transfer from Louisville. Luke Burgess anyone? 

This makes sense. I was thinking the same thing. Noticed he put himself in the portal.

4 years of eligibility, too, with a chance to play a fair amount of snaps this season.

I thought Anthony Jones was soft

Guess we will find out for sure at MSU

I am with you on Jones, he didn't do much for me. 

Candidly, I assumed he would take a step-down and go MWC to build up his value.

I was a big fan of his coming out of New Pal - I wouldn't turn down the commit.

Unrelated, but I  am seeing Holloman is now in the poooorrtal.  Leaves CCC with 78 scholarships for next year and nine former scholarship players in the portal.

Trent Howland to Oklahoma St.

****. I was worried about that since his brother left. Can't say I understand that one.

This feels very much like the Blidi transfer - pain

Broc Lowry is following Walt Bell to WMU.

With Kobee Minor entering today that leaves 8 former scholarship Hoosiers in the portal (Holloman, Boehler, Miller, Jeffries, Larkins, Casey, Minor, and Minor) with 8 scholarships remaining open for the Fall.

Was Minor tipped off about a possible transfer coming in?

DT from JMU 

I saw he was the 11th player to come to us from JMU. Hope it pays off well for us.

The Hoosier Huddle podcast had the terrific Matt Weaver from peegs.com (247) on to discuss recruiting:

...definitely hate seeing players transferring out, especially one who hasn't even played in an official game yet.

IMO, I imagine these players aren't foreseeing the playing time or positions they are hoping for. Quite possibly, some of them may not like Coach Cignetti's approach, coaching philosophy or style. Who knows...?

I will say, it definitely means something when you have double digit transfers from JMU come to IU. They definitely didn't come to IU because it's IU Football.

I don’t remember if this came up around here, surely it did, but is there a story behind Cig bringing a million JMU kids into the program but not McCloud? Were there eligibility concerns?

I think eligibility was the issue. I could be wrong though.

If I had to guess, the JMU cluster has something to prove. We'll see how that transfers to Big Ten football, but personally, I'm extremely comfortable who's running IUFB.

There were heavy rumors that McCloud was going to go play Canadian football, I thought.
