Portal closes 1 week from tomorrow. Has anyone seen anything definitive on OL additions? I saw at least one that we seemed to be following that committed elsewhere.

Players can still transfer pretty much indefinitely after portal opens and closes. I imagine they'll want to be at a new school prior to spring practice, though.

Looks like Hinton picked up an offer from Eastern Michigan. Twitter says he officially visited WMU this week and Coastal today.

It's 19 degrees tomorrow in Michigan, so maybe that works in Furman's favor.

I had neglected to notice, but some of what feels like a more public involvement in the transfer portal comes with changes starting this year.

- the NLI window for high school players is earlier. That should create pressure for the high school kids to go ahead and sign, knowing the transfer portal window opens immediately after.

-
The NLI (national letter of intent)is no longer valid. It was elminated by the NCAA in the fall of this year.

For those interested...

Best I can tell based on twitter/x snooping, Furman has 23 offers out currently. Certainly some of these have come because we're probably out of it with a few of the earlier offers, but just posting the numbers so everyone can see where we are.

6 RB
3 OL
1 TE
13 DBs

Tyriq Poindexter – OL VMI
Jordan Washington – DB Dartmouth
Shamar Baker – DB Johnson C Smith
Jalen Newman – DB Princeton
Gavin Shipman – DB Harvard
Donte Harrison – DB Shepard
Q Jones – RB Dartmouth
Dallas Shirley – OL Newberry
Marvae Myers – DB MTSU
Joseph Reddish – DB Wingate
Kolubah Pewee – DB Georgetown
CJ Stokes – RB Charlotte
Taylen Blaylock – DB Lindenwood
Branson Adams – RB WCU
Rashan Murray – DB
Damon Bankson – DB Weber St
Roman Pearson – DB Bucknell
Luke Clyburn – TE Newberry
Zach Palmer-Smith – RB Richmond
Javious Bond – RB ECU
Darren Burton II – DB Hampton
Jaydon Collins – OL WF
Tavierre Dunlap – RB Michigan
I guess we’re headed into a big decision week. Any inside track on the 3 OL offers? Do we have any other OL offers out there still pending a decision? My feeling is that they have either, education aside, comparable or better offers.

Most likely it works in Coastal's favor.

Abraham is already on the roster as a grad student and listed at CB.
Am he change his 1st name to “Furm?”

Not necessarily. I don’t think any of these guys have to decide until fall semester enrollment technically. Once in the portal, they can decide whenever they want (as long as they are in good academic standing and enrolled before the fall semester). At least that’s my understanding.

Now we all hope some of these guys will decide in time to be here for spring semester/practice, but I don’t think they have to technically. I could be wrong though.

No inside info on any OL so far. Portal visits/decisions are usually not as publicized on social media because the schedules are kind of hectic for a lot of these guys.

Ingram from WC to EKU? Why?
Did you think this was the guy from Wofford? This is a CB from Furman. EKU was the only offer he reported.

Good luck to him. Hopefully he finds what he’s looking for at EKU

Ha! So true. Seemed like there were a couple of his teammates that were also of interest by the Furman staff.
