What are ND sites saying? It seems like FSU is the only real player here, which makes me suspicious. Not that Golson is damaged goods or anything, but that he's been talking discretely with some other school behind the scenes. Most FSU fans want him and think he would make us better.

The only reason I want Golson is so I can keep wearing my #5 fanboy jersey.

Nothing different. FSU is the likely destination.

BREAKING Ex #NotreDame QB Everett Golson tells @FoxSports he will transfer to #FSU. Story coming soon.
10:03 AM - 19 May 2015

Not a big surprise there.

Little bit of a surprise. Him delaying his announcement yesterday had me thinking about that "behind the scenes" comment I made.

Na ESPN just had the wrong info. Warchant said he would announce Tuesday for fsu

I meant the reports yesterday stating he still wanted to take more visits.

Right. Was ESPN and fox getting it wrong once again.

Quote:Another option Golson had considered, Texas, also was out of the picture. The Longhorns, who have had QB issues for a couple of seasons now, actually open the 2015 season against ND in South Bend. According to Golson, ND wasn't going to release him to Texas. Sources told FOX Sports UT had interest in Golson, and he was intrigued by the Horns, especially since Charlie Strong's coaching staff had developed Teddy Bridgewater into a first-round draft pick.

"I would've definitely entertained it, but just knowing that I couldn't, it kinda limited me," Golson said. "It was pretty awkward, but it was kind of expected. It would've been interesting to see Texas. They (Notre Dame) basically limited me to the schools that we wouldn't play. I wasn't really surprised by it."

Asked about his reaction when he heard Notre Dame AD Jack Swarbrick denied talk that the school blocked any of Golson's transfer options, the 22-year-old said: "I just kinda left it alone. The biggest thing for me was I wanted to be somewhere down south, too. They didn't necessarily block me from something I was strongly considering except maybe Texas."
