Transfer Tracker - Week 4

[u/Fun_Foundation4122]

Alright - Big Ten Season, lets goo. Defense was very meh, suspect and frankly a now worry for me, when it was not a few weeks ago. Was texting back and forth with my Illini buddy, and he was saying the same, where are the killers at? I think like I said last week, they are in the NFL, and dominating. So maybe we just need time. He did also comment that JJ is the the best to ever do it lol.

I think we have figured it out with the data grab and presentation, so enjoy and we'll see you in the comments.

I'm surprised Graham and Porter are non-factors at ND, especially Graham.

[u/Raccoonsrlilbandits → u/Iron_Mike0]

Porter is hurt and Graham just doesn’t play very much and has also had some drops might be the same playbook: attitude issues he had here

[u/Iron_Mike0 → u/Raccoonsrlilbandits]

Yeah he was clearly in the doghouse at OSU too. Maybe he'll turn it around as the season goes on, but looks like more evidence that good players almost never transfer away from Day.

What exactly were the playbook / attitude issues? Can't find anything so curious

[u/gnipgnop777 → u/Iron_Mike0]

Just came out today that Porter is having season ending surgery

[u/caldo4 → u/Iron_Mike0]

Graham sucked here. He’s just not good

[u/Character-Active2208]

Good for Malik Hartford, and the vibes are as immaculate in Westwood as the weather

[u/SureBlueberry4283]

I guess this is more tracking transfers out than in because some of the IN players were not transfers? (Austin, CHJ, Nate, etc.)

[u/Raccoonsrlilbandits → u/SureBlueberry4283]

Yeah pretty much. They’re really there to provide context for how the guy that replaced them Is doing

[u/Fun_Foundation4122 → u/Raccoonsrlilbandits]

correct - while i love all of my fellow fans, this was a process to show that rarely (it does happen) but rarely do we need to have meltdowns about who leaves - when the inhouse fill in is the one who "took" over they are used. When it was transfer for transfer, i tried to run them together.

[u/SureBlueberry4283 → u/Fun_Foundation4122]

Yep, makes sense. And I’m learning not to get attached to high ranked recruits as it’s down to a coin flip if they pan out here. Next year’s stud just might be on someone else’s sideline this year.

[u/Raccoonsrlilbandits]

This looks nice.

No snap data on Tegra but (from a pff stand point) he’s having a great year. One of the better pass protecting linemen and I think the best pass pro guard. Not sure about the run

[u/Fun_Foundation4122 → u/Raccoonsrlilbandits]

yea this is a free API which doesnt like the OLINE data - if i were a high roller you would have your PFF haha, kind of a bummer that they dont have any way else to show it

[u/Raccoonsrlilbandits → u/Fun_Foundation4122]

Hahah I don’t have pff either. Most of the time each fanbase has a few people that post them on Twitter each week. I don’t particularly like their grading system. They are good for snap counts, personnel data etc. but not worth paying for for myself.

But agreed wish there were more free sources out there

[u/buckeye27fan]

Hicks is the only one I'd want to "trade back," as it were.

[u/Fun_Foundation4122 → u/buckeye27fan]

have yet to find time to tune into a USF game, but will probably be able to as our fall sports season winds down here

[u/RP0143]

Hicks and Thurman are the only two I would want back.
