Cormani McClain Transfer Getting MESSY! | Colorado Adds Trench Talent, More Coming | Expert Intel

the transfer portal is absolutely on fire we're seeing more names enter we're seeing visits being taken and we are seeing guys starting to commit in Colorado they're one of the teams that's starting to add some talent I told you guys Colorado is going to binge and Purge last week was the binge guys leaving the program now we're starting to see The Purge guys starting to jump on board we're going to find out what Colorado has cooking in this video I got portal expert Pete nakos on with us and we're going to get into it all but first this message over the weekend from Corman mlan first question what are some things you're looking forward to at your next place what are some things you're looking forward to at your next place I'm just ready to bring the old version of me out and change The Narrative of everyone thinking on my name be a part of a real and a great program that's going to impact me at my best ability and yeah ready to get to a new place and get to work some people just got to take a step step back from things sometimes certain people you know yeah I feel like I just don't want to play for CIT I actually want to be involved with the great leading program that's going to develop players this is the video that he posted over the weekend Corman McLean says he wants to play for quote a real and great program and I don't want to play for clicks okay but that's a big shift in energy from his recruitment one of the top DBS in America had everybody talking little here's a little refresher on some of the the highlights of his recruitment he committed a Miami in December he was late to his own commitment in that December window he announced to Miami that day shocking everybody because they thought it was going to be the fora Gators then about a week or two later he goes to the under arour game and he was re in Miami the team that he was committed to but rumors were already swirling that something was up then Miami was supposed to sign him in that February national Signing Day window on that day his mom tweets out the morning false alarm there'd be no signing so remember this wasn't about the clicks because he he was going to have a little signing at his school commit or sign with Miami and then go and roll but instead he goes to million dollars worth of game podcast and commits to Colorado flips his commitment with Gilli and wallow standing there Gilly gets down on one knee and a year later he's gone Gilly didn't do this for Corman mlan to transfer after one year but that's what happens and then this weekend I felt like it got a little messy reports go out that Corman is heading to the portal he confirms that with a thank you note but in his note he never thanks coach Prime he thanks a couple people he thanks his defensive coordinator but he doesn't thank coach Prime then the video we just watched came out and this came out over the weekend and the video itself is Corman in his own words take him at his words or not but after the video is posted he sends a more definitive message about what's happening he pins a post from a commenter and here's the post and I don't really like this if this is how you feel then just say it instead he takes the word of a YouTube commenter and pins it the real message here by pinning that he's basically saying that coach Prime played favorites and he wasn't one of them and I think if you're going to make a video with an explanation of why you left and you're going to at least say what you want to say don't use don't use the comment section to do your dirty work I kind of felt like that was happening with Corman m here you guys let me know comments section below how do you guys feel about Corman McLean's thank you letter how do you guys feel about the video I'll link the video in the description below as well all right let's bring on on threes Pete naos and Pete uh where should we let's start with Corman mlan he says he doesn't want to play for clicks so I would think that USC being in Hollywood and California might be a place where there's some clicks now USF respectfully doesn't get as many clicks and we in the beginning when he first hit the portal we thought the USF Bulls were in good shape to get him what are you hearing now as the weekend is coming to an end you know corm mlan didn't go on any visits this weekend and for me that kind of surprises me right he announced early this past week that hay fa on three that he's going to hit the portal um he obviously put this video out this weekend which really makes clear where he wants to go to school um so for having some conversations every with some sources today he hasn't made any plans for any visit this is going to be a slower process than personally I anticipated um UCF and USF keep coming up in conversations by no means those are those locks um you know I've heard Memphis would really love to to to make a an offer to Corman McLean and I think there's some other uh High major group of five schools that would really like to get in that mix too in terms of power five or or power for as we should say now joshh I haven't heard of many schools I think a lot of schools um have been turned off by kind of how everything ended at Colorado and maybe some of Dion Sanders comments I think that this is going to take some time um I think Corman mle has a lot of upside and and he probably just needs to find the school to really show it all right we'll see what happens there with the former five star DB now in the portal uh another top recruit in the portal Jaden rashada he had a lot of ups and downs in his recruitment as well I don't think I'm going to break that one down in this video but jadden rashada Arizona State quarterback he's in portal what are we hearing about Jaden rashada so you know broke the news on um Thursday night it was that he was going to hit the portal and then he officially hits Friday and I'm told by multiple sources uh close to his camp and at at Georgia that he was planning to take a visit Monday or Tuesday next week so put that out there um but the timeline's going to push back as Hees f it reported later on uh it was Saturday excuse me my timeline's a little messed up Hees put out there that uh Jaden's gon to push back that visit another week and he's not going to be there until late April um talked to some other people and and I think 20 schools have reached out in total I've heard a lot about North Carolina on my end and and LSU uh he's already brought up aubert and Mississippi State too so won't be surprised if Jaden Rashad takes a few visits I think he really had to rush that Arizona State decision with the way things happen at Florida so not gonna Rush this one but I still really like where Georgia sits all right well keep an eye on that one Colorado starting to add some pieces I saw pton Kirkland just jumped on board literally as we're taping this Colorado's racking up commitments they've got three already now they had six transfers on campus they've already landed three how do you feel about colado Hall and is there more to come you know what I really liked is I thought the six guys they brought in this weekend are all really talented and it seemed like at times last spring Josh you and I talked about this maybe the the the guys they weren't bringing in maybe I don't know if they were going to help Colorado out immediately but it seems like this spring they've really got some guys who can be contributors you bring in the Texas trans for pton Kirkland right offensive tackle who's who's a big help and then um earlier today they they landed Deon Hill the top available Edge rusher in the portal and then you top that off by uh the Ohio defensive tackle rayan bule who's kind of underrated but had a really productive season for the Bobcats those are three guys who can be instant impact players and and uh pton kland also has a little ways to go probably compared to the other two but um a a big guy who can really help out the line this year and was really become a revamped offensive line this offseason for the Buffs all right now I wanted to talk about Alabama it looks like kayin deor is getting active in the portal right now they're about to land a kicker tell us about Graham Nicholson Graham Nicholson Miami Ohio the reigning luk Roso award uh winner which goes to the top Place kicker college football um you know Alabama has had really good kicking success re recently with Will rard um and obviously he's off to the draft and will probably be one of the the top names called at the kicking position uh this week in the draft so big big spot actually on the roster for kayin deor to fill maybe not like the the the one all Alabama fans were thinking about going into the portal but would be a really nice pickup have heard of visit is in the works but have not yet to hammer an official date yet for that visit all right last week on Thursday we talked about Penny Boon uh he was from Toledo transferred to Louisville but was putting his name back in the portal did Penny Boone officially hit the portal and what's going on with his recruitment yeah you know some interesting developments so he actually did go officially in the portal as I initially reported he was going to but um was also told by sources in his camp that he was going to visit Washington and Old Miss um over these like next five days he was supposed to be at Washington starting Friday he never made it to Seattle uh the Miss visit kind of seems to be on ice for the moment we'll see how that one plays out but then talk to someone Saturday night uh really close to uh Penny again and um going back to Louisville is actually very much on the table was told like upwards of 30% there's a chance he does that um other schools who've been in the mix are Colorado Georgia and a few others um Colorado obviously had D Hayden on campus this past weekend so we'll see that one plays out but if the Buffs need a running back I think Penny Boon uh would definitely be in the cards all right Louisville fighting back a little bit here in the transfer portal now the last name we got to hit on is Houston wide receiver Sam Brown he entered the portal this weekend and it seems like there's a lot of demand Who's involved with Sam Brown early on yeah uh talking to some sources I really like LSU Texas A&M and Miami um right Miami has a lot to offer all of a sudden sort of right with the cam Ward pickup this offseason a really good quarterback LSU was maybe the winner of the winter transfer portal in terms of getting wide receivers um but I think Sam Brown just offer so much in stretching the field um that I think that LSC wants to see if if Sam's interested and from what I've been told there is some interest and then Texas A&M uh right staying inside uh Texas is attractive to Sam and uh he's expected to make a visit to to College Station at some point this week um so he is the number two available wide receiver in the portal right now Beyond Keandre Lambert Smith and uh for for some schools who might miss out on keandra he he presents a really attractive uh white out all right a lot going on in the portal Pete n Von three you guys do an incredible job of reporting on it all thanks for taking a little bit of time on this Sunday to drop by the inside scoop much appreciated Josh
