Poll: Notre Dame Safety Garron Bible to JMU or UD?

[boozeANDammo]

Just having a little fun with this Notre Dame transfer... when Mr. Bible decides to offically transfer, will it be to the 2003 National Champion Fighting Blue Hens of Delaware or to the 2004 A-10 Champion Dukes of James Madison?! :twisted: :wink:

I think we get him. Bible's from Te'has and we'll see Mickey and the Texas connections pay dividends!

[AbsolutBlueHen]

I might be wrong here but I think every I-A that's come to Delaware has been hooked. Of course in the case of Keith Burnell, he should have join to JMU.

[dukaholic]

The only way Burnell woulda been able to use his 4.2 speed that year woulda been for him to run backwards - lord knows our line wasn't helping anybody!

[Tribe 64]

I guess a new dorm will be built in the Gander Hill vicinity.

I just do not think that Delaware is really interested in Garron. I might be wrong but there isn't much excitement here surrounding him. A one year player with two bad shoulders makes me wonder if Delaware will offer him a scholarship. I am not so sure that he would start at Delaware. Do you give a scholarship to a one year player to be a backup?

Is it better to have 3rd stringers playing when/if someone goes down with an injury? That was a glaring difference last year, for Delaware, for the most part, there was quality depth.

[72 Hen]

I guess what I'm wondering is just how many scholarships do we have left and do you want to offer one to a saftey even if he played at Notre Dame. We have Camburn, Campbell, Chavis, Russ and Robinson at the saftey spot. If we are going to give a scholarship to a DB I would rather that he be a shut down corner. If Garron Bible is a shut down CB we should try to get him. If he is a saftey with medical questions we should hold onto the scholarship and use it if a gamebreaking type player becomes available.

[MassMan]

From what im told... He picked UD over JMU!

[AbsolutBlueHen]

And since you have rarely been right about things, Bible is going to JMU until I find some real confirmation.

[BigBlue Rooster]

Massman is right on this one. We got him. I still don't know that we needed him. We have more depth in the secondary now than I can remember ever having at UD. He is a very good pickup for us and is a good football player. My projected starting secondary right now would be Roger and Sid at the corners and Kyle and Bible at the safety positions. Canburn, Robinson, Russ, Chavis, Woodard, Steimetz will all be getting significant PT as well.

While we are sleeping, or reading the paper, or lounging at the beach, K.C. and staff are thinking and planning how they can improve the team. Anyone here think that I'm exagerating?

[AbsolutBlueHen]

At the I-AA level you can't have too much talent, as has been said before. Look at last year when we had the guys hurt. If our 3rd team guys can hang with I-AA starters, maybe that proves the point as to just how good UD is these days. And Steinmetz hasn't sniffed the field in what now, 3 years?

[Ballbuster]

Massman is right on this one. We got him.


is that a rumor or a fact???

Fact

[AbsolutBlueHen]

What is your source?

[MassMan]

What is your source?

A Delaware player how has talked personally with the ND transfer.

[Mottman]

Is that the same Delaware player who was without a doubt transferring to UMass after winning the NC?

He changed his mind when he got switched to RB therefore giving him motive to stay. Havent you ever heard of a player changing their mind?

[Mottman]

Is that kinda like your new coach changing his mind in the middle of a contract about what school he was loyal to?

He knew the whole time that he would rather be at UMass then Northeastern. A couple years ago when UMass was looking for a new D Coord he was even thinking of coming back then to take the job because he hated it at Northeastern. When will everyone get over this. Have you ever left a job because you werent happy? He left Northeastern because he wasnt happy there. End of story.

[AbsolutBlueHen]

1) Kind of like you not getting over Colgate beating UMass in the snow?

2) Most people act professionally.

3) Did he ever publically say these claims you make?

4) Most times people "in jobs" fulfill contractual obligations, before leaving for something, in your opinion, better.

[Big Green]

Most players who transfer at this late date, long after the college year has ended, are those who have found out they flunked out of their original school or are on the brink of flunking out. I wouldn't be overly thrilled with this of transfer.

Sorry, but your dead wrong on that one, Bible graduated from Notre Dame in May, but still has a year eligibility left.

[Observer]

Listen, if I were Big Green, I wouldn't be thrilled by this transfer either. Ha!

1) I am over the Colgate game, but UDumb fans think when they are in an arguement with a UMass fan that its easy to bring the snow up and the loss up.

2) He might not have been 100% professional by not telling his players he was interested in the job or what not but he is still a stand up good guy.

3) It was 3 years ago and I dont know exactly when it was so finding proof for you would be hell. So id rather not do it.

4) People "in jobs" break contracts all the time. Ill use Bob Knight again as an example. He was going to leave TT to go to Ohio St if they offered him the job. Therefore Bob woulda broke his contract. Look at the NBA. Teams fire their coaches every week. That is also breaking the contract. If its ok for a team to fire their coach then why isnt it ok for a coach to quit his contract?

I guess had had better ask your Chancellor, since he felt it was necessary to apologize to N'eastern for UMass' unprofessional behavior.

[AbsolutBlueHen]

Luckily, as I "know" people that have gone to UMass, MassMan isn't a reflection on the education of said college. Do you still not understand what breaching a contract means? The way Brown did? And, as for UD fans arguing against UMass fans, 22-4.

Maybe you should consider taking some transfers, then you'd win some more games.

ABH and MassMan,

Must you hijack every thread and turn it into your personal pissing match. How bout you guys trying IMing each other and spare the rest of us your sensless squabbling.

[AbsolutBlueHen]

What's much better is when people will complain in a thread, of others "hijacking it", yet all they're doing is the same thing. Don't read it, we're on-topic with our discussion.
