From ESPN+. Pretty decent- high praise for the Sun Belt East; best division in G5. The writer has App projected to win the division followed by Marshall, CCU, Ga State, JMU, ODU, and GSU. He refers to Kaedin Robinson as the "North Carolina transfer" (UCF) and does not mention the RB transfer, Marshall from Wake Forest.

Makes sense. Robinson is likely a starter. Marshall is likely RB4 to start.

The point about Robinson is the author had the school wrong. He transferred from UCF- not UNC.

Got it. You’re correct. My apologies.

Is Harrington back for another year in the backfield?

He is from the state of NC. Maybe that's what was meant, just poorly worded

I know it’s the nature of the beast now but I get tired of players being mentioned as the “______ transfer”. If a guy played at Western and transferred to App he either upgraded and starts/plays significantly or rides the pine. Who cares where he came from once he is here and is playing? Seems like during basketball games it was non-stop with those references.
