This reminds me how much I was looking forward to seeing Marqui Hawkins play next year. He looked really good in practice this year while sitting out as a transfer. I know Coach Clark was very excited about getting him on the field. Damn this sucks.

Hence they need good players.

#UAB RB @JHoward_7 says has landed offers from #Badgers, #Vandy, #Louisville, #Hoosiers, #Marshall, #MSTU, #SouthernMiss & #WKU. More on way

Wisconsin would set him up for the pros.

That has to be a dream offer for most RBs.

Yeah, I'd be shocked if he didn't jump all over that.

Running behind a line like that, he'd have a good chance at landing a first round draft pick one day.

Negative. But he could get in the top 3 rounds, which would be tremendous.

All Wisconsin does is run the ball. He should go there.

He deserves it. I wish him the best.

Oh god, Jordan, not Indiana.

@AndrewJBone
Former #UAB OL Lee Dufour has scheduled visits with #USM and #USF. He will enroll at one of the two in Jan.

Coleman was the 2nd highest rusher in the country this year. They don't win but they run the ball.

So if a bunch of our guys wind up at southern miss do we wind up having to root for them?

Vandy would be nice if he wanted to stay close to home, get a great education, and have a chance to play in a highly visible conference.

I know how hard it is to bear, but all of the players and coaches are trying to figure out where they will be next season. Every one of them has my thanks for what they gave to UAB, my apologies for what happened to their lives as a result, and my best wishes in their future careers.

We love you guys, every last one of you.

I'll pull for whatever teams they go to as long as the guys are treated well. Even if they go to (gulp) Arkansas.

This is, of course, with the assumption that not a one of them would even consider going to Tuscaloosa unless it's to drop a Watts on that statue of Bear.

Do what you have to do, gentlemen.

My advice to you is to get as far from the state of Alabama as you can.

But know this: You will always be Blazers to me.

Amen and Amen!

I wish they would wait about committing until the see where Coach Clark lands. If I were a second tier ACC school or in the AAC I'c be beating down his door and hoping he could bring some players/depth with him
