The Unofficial Furman Football Page

Evan Jumper is in the portal according to his twitter

This is posted in the transfer thread, but if people would prefer to keep a thread specifically for Furman players that enter the portal that’s fine. Probably good to close this one or the Jace one so we can keep it all in one place.

Really hoping this stays a very small list though!

Furman Portal Entries:
Jace Wilson QB
Evan Jumper OL
Dominic Morris DB
Kendall Thomas RB

So if you choose the transfer portal and nothing works out, you can go back and play at your old team, correct?

That is up to the head coach. If you say you are leaving and the coach signs a replacement with the open scholarship -no return possible. Some coaches might say good luck but you can't come back even if we don't get a replacement. Other times it might be situational - star player might be allowed to return but a reserve could be denied.

Thanks FUwolfpacker ! ... I do appreciate the separate lists. Otherwise things get buried in a thread.

And I too hope this list stays very small

Dominic Morris has entered the portal

When I see or hear the words transfer portal the ending elevator sound opening to
murmuring crowd at the end of Welcome to the Machine comes to mind.

Welcome to the Machine.

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline
Filling in time
Provided with toys and scouting for boys
You brought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine

That kid has a lot of potential as a DB. Too bad. He will get offers

Just let the process play out. Blackshear entered the portal last season and returned, for instance.

When I hear about The Portal, I think about last year's Fansville commercial.

"Rico's time is NOW!" the Sophomore proclaims, as he is swept into the vortex.

He played well when he got his chance and will miss him.
But with the depth we have in the running backs room and a using a lot of one back sets, i am not surprised.
