Wow. That is an amazingly high chance of losing your spot.
I wonder how many of those equate to lost scholarships vs. walk on players looking for a new home and a ride.
Bottom line. That looks real risky.
First thing I thought about was lost scholarships. Throwing away free money is not smart. I really wish some of these players had better advisors.
Everyone thinks their just one good opportunity away from playing in the NFL. I myself am still waiting on NASA to get back to me about being an astronaut on the next shuttle mission.
Part of the issue is they get bad advice from family, friends etc. about what they “should” get in regards to exposure, playing time etc.

I don’t have “dad” eyes. I recognized my kids talent, or lack thereof in some cases, but I know a shit ton of people who think their kids are the best players on the planet. Hell I actually have had a few turn on me when they asked me what I though about their kids abilities, future, etc and I answered honestly. And I was actually nice about it, but it didn’t matter.
One guy asked me if I thought his son could play SS in college. I told him I thought he could play OF or perhaps 2B but not SS and you woulda thought I hit him with a brick. Guess what, the kid played 2B at UNCA.
People are crazy sometimes and blow smoke up kids asses and give them false expectations, it’s unreal

If this is really the case I hope we get multiple FBS transfer QB’s on the team for next year, seems like a supply and demand issue.

So where did the 41% come from?
Just guessing, but I know that 41% number includes walk-ons too, which makes sense. I don’t know how they classify grad transfers, but that could lower the percentage as well
Maybe they meant fbs to fbs transfers. And of course grad transfers and guys who went pro are most likely counted in where they didn’t have a home
