Just committed on twitter. I am on a court call so can't forward now.

Huge. 5-star!!! Heard he was the top recruit at his position in the country.

Obviously, things didn't work out at Penn State for whatever reason. Huge get and has the potential to be a program changer.

Quote:"It’s apparent Slade is the favorite to start, presumably alongside quarterback Hayden Wolff, when the Monarchs open their season on Sept. 4 against Wake Forest."

So, he must have gotten his waiver??? Nice.

Incredible pickup. Serious injection of talent, great job Ricky!

Va Pilot reports "Slade, is likely to sit out a season under NCAA transfer guidelines."

He was the #1 APB coming out of high school.

He will be a big weapon. Get him the ball in space and he can make things happen. He needs to drop 10 lbs, IMO. Get some of that explosiveness back.

#2 RB Transfer Recruit this year:

https://floridastate.rivals.com/news/tra...2020-cycle

As a recruit: Slade, one of the top-ranked running backs in the 2018 class, committed to Penn State a year before signing with the Nittany Lions, choosing them over USC, Virginia Tech and others.

At Penn State: Slade worked his way into the rotation among a stable of elite running backs, rushing for 471 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground while also catching 13 passes for 117 yards over his first two seasons in Happy Valley. With Noah Cain and Journey Brown ahead of him on the depth chart, Slade entered the portal earlier this. year in hopes of finding a No. 1 spot.

Farrell's Take: Slade was a slasher out of high school who was also a dangerous pass catcher and it’s surprising to see him passed on the Penn State depth chart so quickly. He brings a lot of speed and elusiveness to the table and he’s a surefire Power Five impact guy, especially for a team that plays a spread.

Impact Rating: 8.5 out of 10

Too short.

Crap, wrong thread again.

This is obviously good news. Here's hoping he practices social distancing from opposing defenses often this season.

Waiver is in progress.

Well, they must not have talked to him.

Trust the person that's been on this story and on this beat

Some freshman highlights. You can see his jump cut ability. Trying to find soph highlights now.
