Mike Farrell is reporting that Lance Dixon is down to Michigan State, West Virginia, TCU, and Temple as his transfer destination. Rumor is that a number of his credits are not transferring to Michigan, which must suck for him since it seemed that going to Michigan was the main reason why he entered the transfer portal in the first place (high school coach and friends at Michigan).
OK. Call me stupid. But wouldn't either he or someone else have researched this before he entered the portal? I thought the main reason he entered the portal was to be with his old coach at Michigan.
I know his family was dissatisfied with playing time, but I also thought the MAIN reason he wanted to leave was to be with his old coach (and the rumored dollars that went with it). Could this be a case where his old coach in high school over delivered, which in turn may screw him out of his Penn State scholarship?
I realize we can reinstate it (the scholarship), but we don't have to. By pulling the portal trigger too soon, this kid could end up at Temple....... or worse. No guarantee Michigan State, WVU, or TCU would transfer the grades either.
