We Reached Out To Eric Rivers Portal WR

Standout WR transferring out of FIU and we have reached out to him. This shows Dabo’s mindset in my opinion. Many want to give up on him, but if he’s in contact with receivers in the portal, a position where we will have talent next year from our current roster, but he’s simply doing it because of the available talent, that tells you that Dabo is going all in to try and win.

Wesco and Moore will naturally get..

more touches as Sophs meaning his stats will not improve and there is the injury risk. He's a solid day 3 pick, a great combine wouldn't hurt but unless his height increases and he can suddenly clock a sub 4.4 on a bad day(not on the lightening pro day
track) there's little chance of improving his draft status after the year he's had... unfortunately

Day 3 WR are not in a good place to make a roster
Dec 9, 2024, 10:21 PM
|

unless they are also an excellent return man. Antonio is a decent punt returner, but nothing elite. Day 3 guys have to be special team guys. This would be a very poor decision I believe. If he does, hello Tyler Brown. Just need to build depth

Not sure anything related to our special teams would be considered elite, unfortunately.

I agree, don’t see where he would be picked higher than 6-7 th round. His numbers aren’t that great but heck we have others declare and they didnt have as good of a year. One more year of he, Wes and Moore stay it could be a good year for receivers.

Love Williams but him leaving would one of the dumbest moves. He’s not THAT kind of WR yet. 2025 has the potential to be a great year. I don’t believe for a second that Williams would leave, no way he’s getting a 1st rd grade. IMO he’s looking more like a 5th rd -UFA grade. Lots to improve on.

I am not sure AW goes.
Regardless, we need another talented WR IMO.
We've seen what the lack of quality depth has done at RB. I don't think the staff wants to get caught again in a position like they have the last couple of years.

He will be highly sought after.

As the poster shows. He is definitely high on FSU's list.
There is a receiver, Barrion Brown, from Kentucky that seems to be the #1 WR in the portal as of tonight. If Dabo is looking for a WR, expect his name to pop up..

He's the guy who showed out against us last year. He's a burner.

I am not sure at all if this is true, but I definitely saw something on social media about him making Kentuck give him some kind of big bonus to play against Louisville last season. If anything close to that is the case then no thanks

Has anyone received the ransom note for Dabo yet? What did they ask for?

and that is a game, at least up to this point, Dabo has refused to play.

It's tough to assume anything about any position

in this current climate. If you told me Wesco was entering the portal I would be surprised but I wouldn't be shocked. Nothing is set in stone now. Nothing is off the table.

Nope… just sit back and watch it all unfold and see what you end up with after the Spring portal closes.

Dabo is not against adapting, he is just often slow to it. Just like hiring Garret Riley, Yall wanted someone from outside the program and that's what we got, eventually. I don't think Hiring Riley has worked out the way we wanted it to but hopefully using the portal will be good.

Our Offense has went from like 50-60 last year to borderline Top 10 this year and the improvement Cade has made is off the chart. Luke played a big part in that but while maybe not reaching the dazzling heights we weee hoping for, Riley has been a solid hire IMO.
Biggest problem is our defense has went from perennial Top 5-10 to 50s and our ST is horrible. We basically spot teams 50+ yds on ST every game.

officially contacted his representatives then, I agree, this shows a change in Dabo's approach. (Old Dabo would never bring in a WR in front of AR8 or CT22.)
Aside: we aren't going to outbid all of those schools
