The Rivard kid who transferred from James Madison may be a very nice pick up. I hadn't seen any press about him at all, who knew...

Swopshire had a very nice game as well so both transfers immediately contributed...

Did the team just get younger and better? I didn't see the game and have never seen a lot of these guys play but it sure seems like this coach knows what he is doing brining in guys who played for a year at another school (and maybe redshirted there? I don't know). With transfers, you can see what they look like going up against college competition before you sign them and then you get them here and give them a redshirt year to get stronger and learn the system and then have them here for three years. Course load is probably easier with credits transferring and not being able to play for the first year they are here. Guys are older and stronger and better than they would be if they had come in as freshmen.
