Getting to play P5 football, but never approached the success he had in Athens. Could have had a few more years catching balls from Rourke. Not all transfers are well advised.
9 catches, 2 TD’s this year so far-14.8 YPC
2019 with Ohio: 26 catches, 515 yds, 5 TDs, 19.8 YPC as a redshirt freshman. Odds are, numbers would have gone up (not counting the COVID season). Different level of competition of course.

Happy for him to get to play at Auburn of course, but transferring twice, he likely missed out on some huge numbers in Athens.
He’s probably getting much more NIL money there which may be what’s important to him right now as well as playing at a top level
I would think that we should know this, since he goes to a state institution, it should be our right to know!

This is a thorny issue that will probably ultimately be determined by SCOTUS. Here’s what’s happening in Utah:

That was pure sarcasm on my end. These deals are outside of education, and clearly would not fall under FERPA protection.
