Kaleb Dawson
Kaleb Dawson posted on his instagram tonight that he’s entering the portal. Any idea what’s up? We certainly can’t afford to lose any DBs at the moment

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
Wonder if this is all his idea or coaches have told him he won’t make the two-deep, or something else?

Good luck to the young man. Wonder if he plans to get on the bus leaving with Robert Morris?

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
It's gotta be a tough situation for any athlete to transfer over mid way through a season. Why not stick it out?

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
Not really sure of the advantage of announcing that now. The portal isn't open until December. Regardless, best of luck wherever he lands.

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
Hate to see anyone leaving mid season but apparently he didn't want to be here. Maybe one of those conversations that happened over the past couple of weeks. I wouldn't know, but if he wants to be elsewhere, I wish him the best!

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
I've wondered that if you surveyed every player who hits the portal and asked them why they made the decision how many would say that they liked their school, team, coaches and teammates but just wanted to leave. I'm sure 0% would say they were happy with all 4. Obviously any competitor wants to play and if a guy finds that he simply isn't gonna get on the field he should make his decision and be happy but some of this stuff gets out of hand. I really hate watching a game and the announcers constantly refer to a guy as "the X team transfer " or the former "X team running back". I know it's an aspect of the times but once a player is on a new team who cares where they came from?

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
Has he played in the 4-game threshold?

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
if he can't crack into being happy with playing time in our current group, that says something.

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
I enjoyed listening to Thomas Hennigan on the BGP episode the other week. He spoke about how Covid made it difficult to weed out a lot of guys who weren't a great fit. Some of the guys who aren't 'App fits' may be contributing to the difficulties this season. Not sure if this is an example or not, but seems like something to keep our eyes out for the rest of the year.
I do wish him the best in his future endeavors.

Re: Kaleb Dawson Transfers
After this departure that leaves 11 guys from Satt's final recruiting class:
Henry Pearson
Anderson Hardy
Trey Cobb
Nick Hampton
Chris Washington
Logan Doublin
Tyler Bird
Hansky Paillant
Jordon Earle
Cooper Hodges
Camerun Peoples
Losing Drinkwitz after 1 year was difficult, but honestly imagine where we would be if we had 2+ recruiting classes under Drink. Satts last class has NUMEROUS guys that bleed black and gold and are textbook Mountaineers
