Guest bigred360 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas quarterback Garrett Gilbert, who lost his starting job after two games and then had season-ending shoulder surgery, plans to transfer. Gilbert was given an unconditional release from his scholarship to find another school. In a statement released Wednesday, Gilbert did not say where he planned to go, but indicated he has visited several schools and will visit more while finishing this semester at Texas. Gilbert said he talked to coach Mack Brown and the staff and decided "it is in my best interest to transfer. I can't thank all of my teammates and everyone at Texas enough for all of their support, but I just think I'm at a point in my life where I need a fresh start." http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7064257/injured-texas-longhorns-quarterback-garrett-gilbert-transfer Wonder if Lamar would have any interest in Gilbert?

Guest bigred360 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 So, I guess he is using a medical redshirt this year. Then sit out another year at SMU? Well, June Jones is one heck of a offensive minded coach who might bring out the best in Gilbert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epg2793 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 We can still hope he will transfer to a Southland school as long as it isn't Lamar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
