It's a position or gap filler, great Post!!Yosef84 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2023 7:32 amGrad transfers can be a great quick fix but that's not how to build a program. By definition, you generally have a year of eligibility and you are replacing that position again. Grad transfers are a great way to buy time for a younger player to develop and plug holes, but not the ongoing solution. Just my opinion of course.
problem is you can't hold them super accountable like a underclassmen, they can get sideways on you and be a distraction if a underclassmen player beats them out, don't have to attend class either, etc.
Example: Chase Brice was a good pickup once Zac didn't want to come back.
But in a perfect recruiting world you don't want to play the Graduate Transfer gamble each spring recruiting, it's not what App State football was built on.
