Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)



Ex-Maryland QB Taulia Tagovailoa in portal, seeks 6th year​

Former Maryland quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa has entered the NCAA transfer portal, and he told ESPN in a phone interview on Friday that he filed for a reinstatement waiver with the NCAA on Thursday for a sixth year of eligibility.

Tagovailoa played five seasons, including his freshman year at Alabama in 2019. He went on to become the Big Ten's all-time passing leader in his subsequent four seasons at Maryland, throwing for 11,256 yards. The 2020 season doesn't count toward eligibility because of rules that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, which would have left Tagovailoa another year if he'd redshirted in 2019.

The waiver request is centered on Tagovailoa playing in five games as the third-string quarterback at Alabama in 2019, playing just two snaps against Duke and another two at Mississippi State. He played 22 snaps the final week at Western Carolina. The maximum threshold for redshirting is playing in four games.

He said he's exploring returning to college to also help better his draft stock. He's projected as a Day 3 pick, and hopes another year could help him.

When asked what he'd say to the NCAA, Tagovailoa responded that he wouldn't want four snaps -- two at the end of two different blowouts -- to "prevent me from playing another year of college football while beginning coursework for my master's degree."....:lol:

Just sayin': He needs NCAA approval for the 6th year. also, I'm guessing that he is looking for a 7 figure NIL deal too.

Yeah little Tua needs to find a job.

NCAA might fold cause the family has a enough money to take them to court and the courts love the NCAA of late. All hell breaks lose if suddenly there is no forced end of eligibility.
