***CFB Transfer Portal 2022-23 thread***

OK, but even with McNamara coming in, if I'm a transfer receive I'm probably taking a good hard look at why every WR worth a damn over the last 2 years has transferred out. I'd have to imagine Johnson and Bruce knew that McNamara was likely coming and still wanted out. It's scheme and it's Brian. McNamara doesn't fix that.
 
It appears that Iowa isn't ******* around when it comes to NIL and the portal. Really hoping the Arlen Harris transfer doesn't come down to NIL because I have a hard time seeing us being able to out spend Iowa.

I'm guessing most of their NIL $ went to Proctor and McNamara. They have good rbs already and will probably need the rest getting actual wrs to come

Bruce burn his bridge with ISU already? Spot is now open as he was trying to get on at ISU but we were full last year before he signed with Iowa. I know there were a few pages on CF about him wanting in at ISU.

Arland Bruce could be a heck of a player, i think it's too early to grade him given where he played.

I'm not going to judge a WR on poor production in that offense. That was more on Spencer Petras and Brian Ferentz - the worst QB/OC duo in Division I football.
I’m not basing my opinion on him on production. When I have watched him he doesn’t run great routes. Doesn’t have great speed and doesn’t make people miss when given the opportunity.
He can get better at route running but he isn’t dynamic. Ceiling is really just a possession receiver in the slot.

The reality is, he was a high school RB who seems to have struggled a bit transitioning to WR. I'd like him in the old days, if he had to sit out but he doesn't seem to fit our needs for next season.

Well, we know he can't catch a ball thrown five feet over his head.
