Yeah, other than a huge ego, I don't get this one. But he did commit to them then decommit then re commit. As a freshman he played a lot but their top junior receiver returned and their other freshman seemed to be more clutch. So instead of returning for a sophmore year as their 3rd or 4th receiver and prove himself while still playing a lot, he goes elsewhere sits a year and then plays in a wide open offense no defense situation...with less press than MSU gets

That's the weird thing, go anywhere else in the Big12 and it's a wide open but K State is stuck in the 70's. Without looking, I'd guess they averaged 160 ypg in the air.

Looks like K.J. Carta-Samuels is not going to UCLA after all. The starting spot at CSU opened up a few weeks ago when likely starter Colin Hill tore his ACL again. CSU has a tough schedule with Arkansas at home and going on the road to play Florida and Boise. With their schedule, if he does well he might find himself in the draft. Probably making the right decision not going to UCLA.

Brandon Dawkins is headed to UCLA instead, former Arizona QB

Yup. In reading some of the UCLA boards about Carta-Samuels, they were pissed for about a minute until the rumor started circulating they were now probably going to get Brandon Dawkins.

Terrance Alexander, CB from Stanford is transferring to LSU as a grad transfer. He majored in Communications at Stanford, went to John Curtis, and misssed most of last season with an injury. Both of LSU's starting CBs - Donte Jackson and Kevin Tolliver - entered the draft.

To make room for Jay Hayes, Georgia has taken a scholarship for 2018 from one of their signees, Tramel Walthour, DT, who will be a grayshirt and get a scholarship in 2019.

https://www.dawgnation.com/football/recruiting/georgia-signee-will-take-a-gray-shirt-enroll-in-2019

The 2018 signee was rated as a 3-star prospect coming out of Liberty County High School in Hinesville, Ga., according to 247Sports. At 6-foot-4 and 277 pounds, the defensive tackle already possesses the size necessary to succeed in Kirby Smart’s 3-4 hybrid defense. The rest of 2018 could be an opportunity for Walthour to get even bigger and stronger, which will only help his case once he enrolls.

The move by the Bulldogs was needed after adding Notre Dame grad transfer Jay Hayes to the roster last week. That created an issue with Georgia’s scholarship numbers. In order to get under the 85-scholarship limit, Walthour was asked to take a grayshirt. His love for Georgia prevailed, and he accepted.

The day before Hayes announced his transfer, Georgia OL Pat Allen, announced his transfer. The day of Hayes' announcement, LB Jaleel Laguins, announced his transfer from Georgia.

Since he signed a LOI to attend Georgia, Walthour, should he not have accepted a grayshirt, wouldn't he have had to sit out a year due to NCAA rules to transfer to a D1 school? This was the case with Jamel Dean, who signed a LOI to attend Ohio State, and then was not cleared by Ohio State doctors. He was offered a medical scholarship, which he refused. He transferred to Auburn and had to sit out a year.

I honestly didn't know that you could still do this with 5th year transfers that had graduated.

I think it's total BS, but I'm pretty sure the student athlete has to prove the other school represents an opportunity their original school does not.

Student-athletes who have earned their bachelor’s degree may also participate in athletics as a graduate student at another Division I college provided they meet certain criteria (NCAA Bylaw 14.6.1) or obtain an NCAA waiver. This so-called “graduate transfer” rule was intended to assist academically high-achieving students in pursuing a degree of interest that may not be offered at their undergraduate college.
Prevalence of Graduate Transfer in Division I | NCAA.org - The Official Site of the NCAA

Not sure if it's the exact situation here, but I was always of the opinion that you should be totally free to go wherever you wanted if you already had the degree in hand.
