Former 5 star target Cormani McClain in transfer portal

[Jeff from Jax]

The one time Gator lean is transferring from Colorado after one season

After seeing minimal playing time while in Boulder, CB McClain is in the transfer portal looking for a new home.

Don't know if this portal entry will turn out like

LB Grayson 'Pup' Howard​

or if CBN & the Gators even want him.

FWIW - Transfer Portal opens April 22, 2024

"...McClain finished the season with 277 defensive snaps and was graded out by PFF with the 11th lowest grade in the country among cornerbacks who took at least 250 snaps in 2023.

He will still have three seasons of eligibility left and is bound to draw some interest as a reclamation project given the potential he had coming out of high school."

Interesting to see how the world has turned after McClain "left us at the alter" last year.

It’s troubling that he couldn’t make an impact at Colorado. Poor coaching or just plain overrated?

Nick,

Coach Prime went 4-8 & promptly fired just about his entire coaching staff.

"...Earlier this offseason, head coach Deion Sanders lost both coordinators (Sean Lewis and Charles Kelly), tight ends coach Tim Brewster, offensive line coach Bill O’Boyle and defensive ends coach Nick Williams. It also appears that defensive line coach Sal Sunseri won’t be returning to Boulder."

How can you you possibly think that "Prime" (AKA Neon Deon) can't coach ?

It's always great to see you back here, Jeff.
You mentioned he was a Gator lean. Then again, I remember him also being a Miami lean.

Sorry but I'd stay away from that kid. Too much baggage.

Well tackling wasn’t exactly his strong point when he was playing.

GD3,

Correct

The Mike Farrell article below states that McClain was a Miami commit right up until Early National Signing Day in December 2022. He spurned the Hurricanes and signed with Colorado.
