Hmmm, we had a former stinker on our team last year. Hate to see him go.
Thanks for your time.
It is what it is in CFB these days.
Be interesting how the crowd reacts to the player individually during game this coming year.
Hope we beat the hell out of his new team during last game of regular season in 2025.

I hope we beat the crap out of them to keep them out of something important!

And that has nothing to do with BH -- I just want payback for 2 of the last 3 years! And 2019!

Throw a stone if you've ever turned down a job offer paying 25% more.

Still don’t understand how he got a 7th year after playing 4 and redshirting 2. Didn’t play JUCO, so can’t get eligibility off that ruling.

Every football player from the 2020 season got an extra year

I’m going to be that guy.

I don’t wish him well.

I left a job and took a 25% pay cut because it was a cooler job. Equal stone to turning down a job offer of 25% more?

The players have been conditioned now to only care about who pays them the most, all loyalties are dead.

Such a great life lesson for these young men.

Sounds like most of the American workforce if offered a 25% raise.

A lesson they already learned from the “character building” coaches

I hate to say it but there wasn’t much loyalty to begin with. Most, not all, athletes don’t share the passion and fondness for school as those of us that matriculated as regular students. College was a means to an end that allowed them to continue to play ball. Now they get to do it and get paid for it.

I don't have anything against Harrington, given the way players move around these days. And I don't blame Loggains for letting him go. What I do wonder about is why Helton and his staff see Harrington as a good investment, given his injury history.

He's a veteran and still seems to be able to produce at a G5 level. Plus he is now almost 2 years removed from the knee injury so I would imagine he can help quite a bit.

He did not do flip schools for more money. He thought he was worth way more than we offered and did not even end up getting close to what his NIL agents told him he is worth. Players need to stop listening to these NIL agents because they have no clue. Most are just trying to inflate the numbers because they think they should make the same money as NFLPA agents.

If he didnt go for the pay then his intelligence is lower than I thought. I'd have went and played for anyone other than GASouth. Talk about lowering your standards....
