Keion Battle in the Portal - BDB5yp - 04-19-2021 03:46 PM
Sounds like a bad idea. Patience is a lost art for some of these players.... Drop down a level to FCS and ride the bench there? With all the injuries that happen in football. If you’re good and you hang in there as a young player you will get your shot.

I agree but it must be far away from playing if you have 9 other talented WRs ahead of you. Waiting a year must seem like forever in their minds.
Other freshman were getting more reps like Messiah Travis (#11), Trayvon Rudolph and RS F McCray.
Maybe he needs a team with an easier path to playing time.

And it looks like 5 more WRs from 2021 are coming this summer.

He had no chance out there...the WR room is too deep. Guys who are marginal talents are getting squeezed out. Hope he finds somewhere with a softer room, because that is not what we have here.

He doesn't want to sit on bench his whole career. Good luck. Hope he suceeds

Yeah this is probably the best move for Keion. He is likely near the bottom of the depth chart here, not because he doesn't have talent but rather that it's a talented room right now. And there are something like eight more wideouts who are allegedly joining the team in June.
