    From what I can gather, Cade wanted to keep it as quiet as possible and uga and kirby wasn't having it. Just seems petty.

    Sounds like he enrolled and forced Georgia to put him in the portal

    Which, whether intentional or not, is a hilarious "[uck fay] You" to Kirby

    This could also be it, but I'd rather think that he went all next level "[uck fay] yourself"

    It means VQ moderators are barely literate.

    The player has to enter him/herself into the portal. The school/coach cannot put a player into the transfer portal. I believe the only way he can transfer is to enter the portal.

    He may have wanted to keep it low key and UGA wasnt having that, but the only way to transfer is through the portal.

    Lost 5* / #1 RB in class from Texas, after signing him on ESD.

    A loss is a loss.

    Wait, has Cade already enrolled at Tennessee?

    Exactly. He did want to already be enrolled when the news hit, though. It would have been damn near impossible to make it work out that way

    You've got people claiming Kirby is a petty jackass to transfers and Pruitt writes handwritten letters to the ncaa as to why Tennessee guys should be eligible at their new schools

    I decided to go back to their vaunted #1 2018 class and see how many of those players are gone, in portal or haven't done much at all. Used 247 composite rankings, high 4* is 96+, mid 4* is 93-96.9, low 4* is 90-92.9)

    Justin Fields 5* QB - transferred to OSU
    Zamir White 5* RB - 3rd in depth chart, will likely have starting role with Swift/Herrian gone
    Jamaree Salyer 5* OG - backup, didn't start any games but played in 14
    Tyson Campbell 5* CB - got injured, only racked up 15 tackles in soph year
    Adam Anderson 5* LB - 3rd in depth chart, 6 tackles this year
    Cade Mays 5* OT - transferred to V,B
    Brenton Cox 5* DE - transferred to Florida

    Quay Walker high 4* LB - depth fodder, 23 tackles this year
    James Cook high 4* RB - depth fodder, will share carries with White
    Luke Ford high 4* TE - transferred to Illinois
    Trey Hill mid 4* OL - STARTING C all 2019, only returning starter on OL
    Otis Reese mid 4* LB - depth fodder, in portal
    Channing Tindall mid 4* LB - depth fodder, 9 tackles this year
    Kearis Jackson mid 4* WR - Redshirted, 73 total yards receiving this year
    Azeez Ojulari mid 4* DE - STARTING DE, 28 tackles and 5.5 sacks
    Tommy Bush low 4* WR - Redshirted, 1 total yards receiving this year
    Divaad Wilson low 4* CB - depth fodder, 14 tackles this year
    Warren Ericson low 4* OL - played in 6 games

    So there you have it. #1 class in the land, lost 5 high ranked recruits to transfer and only have 2 bona fide starters returning for what should be the core of their upperclassman campaign.

    Of all the transfers, losing Fields hurts the worst because going into 2020, UGA has at QB:

    * barely-4* QB D'Wan Mathis that might not even be cleared to ever play again due to a brain cyst
    * JUCO 3*
    * low-4* true Freshman
    * bunch of walk-ons

    NOTE: Reese, LB in portal, was recruited heavy by Pruitt/Ansley when they were at Bama in that 2018 class.

    Would be interesting if UGA lost 3/5 transfers in the best class in school history to division rivals.

    Stuff like this makes me root even harder for Pruitt. He genuinely seems to care for these guys, and that might be the HS coach coming out in him.
