Anyone know anything about a potential UT Transfer?

Post by glazeduck »

"@TonyDiFrancisco

Oregon could be getting a University of Texas transfer who was let go because of a DWI? Really? Didn't see this one coming."

Amidst all the twitterings regarding James and Masoli's court dates and Chip's presser Tony D, who usually has solid info, dropped this one in there. Seems strange to me that we'd suspend Alonso for a year for a DUI but take a UT transfer (who I suppose, playing devil's advocate, would have to sit out a year anyway...) who did the same thing...

Has anyone heard anything about this or even have an idea of who it might be? I've wondered for awhile now if the lack of continued recruiting news after signing day meant a transfer or two, since we still have slots open, but that's just speculation... Anyone? Anyone? Beuller?

This has to be the craziest offseason I have ever experienced in terms of my sports teams.

I think it might be a TE named Brandon Williams (?) but I'm not sure. I know they had someone transfer to Arizona after DUI so it could either be the same person or a different person entirely.

We could have 2 TEs named Brandon Williams? That'd be interesting...

It would be easier for announcers.

I remember they had a super talented freshman WR named D.J. Monroe who I believe was cited for something. I know they had another WR named Dan Buckner who was cited for DWI but if I'm not mistaken he already transferred to Arizona.

Monroe is the only one I can find that fits this bill.

On Ted Miller's blog, he posted that Arizona got Dan Buckner back in January and is allowed to participate in spring drills. Whether he followed through on that has not been reported. He may have backed out and is considering others or this UT transfer is someone else.

With all the turmoil surrounding the Duck's football team this winter does anyone seriously think they would accept a transfer that had recently been arrested? It would be a public relations disaster.
