There were plenty of rumors BEFORE the Rodriguez hire that he was considering transferring.
This article only makes the likelihood of Mallet transferring even greater.
Rivals.com Football Recruiting - Pryor: Add Michigan to my list "[Rodriguez apparently informed Pryor before alerting most others, gauging the QBs interest in joining him at his new school.
"He called me this morning and told me before he announced to anyone," said Pryor. "He said he's keeping the same offense that he had at West Virginia because it's all he knows. I love that offense. I told him I was very interested."]"
This shows you the level of interest RR has in Pryor, and perhaps the level of disinterest he has in Mallet.
I don't think we can land Pryor unless Mallet transfers. Otherwise, Pryor waits three years. I think RR desperately wants to land Pryor, especially since the other school he's expressing strong interest in is OSU. RR needs a QB who fits his system.
I guess this is sort of unfair to Mallet. But there have been rumors about his homesickness and arrogance. Arkansas is a nice fit for him. He's like Brohm and he gets to go back home. So everyone wins here.
