He is doing what he thinks is best for himself
But it would have been better to not do it in the middle of the season. It comes across very selfish and demeaning to his teammates.

Thoughts on Holker from a Ute fan.

Utah sucks.
Mr. Scoobs

Both things are true.

Have you thought through the logic of saying Utah sucks?

Nope. Just perpetuates the stereotypes of byu fans

Grimes could do well there.

I think he may be a candidate for some head coaching positions.

I am not sure.

I would guess it's Rising. He doesn't seem to be a big NFL prospect.
Jeffacka
9/21/22 1:11pm
Very possible. I do not see him a a top round NFL pick either.

9/21/22 1:17pm
Leaving midseason is unequivocally bad for his NFL career. NFL scouts will treat

Burrows, Hurts and many others left their schools and have done quite well.
ImaFBfan
9/21/22 1:14pm
LOL at your understanding of my argument. I don't feel like repeating it.
rcbyufan
9/21/22 1:17pm
Honest question
Pioneercoug
9/21/22 1:49pm
The key is your very last clause: "his measurables don't change by transferring"
rcbyufan
9/21/22 2:03pm
So Jalen Hurts transferring to OK and starting instead of staying
Pioneercoug
9/21/22 2:18pm
LOL. Hurts got benched. And he stayed the whole year (EVEN STILL). That was

you didn't answer my question.

I'll try to speak slowly. If Holker got benched after Oregon and he stuck it out

RE: Transferring hurting NFL prospects. Do you understand the current generation that Holker is a part of?

I’m guessing those in the locker room think he’s a locker room issue

I don't subscribe to this thought process. NFL scouts care if he can play.
The Kavorka

He is doing what he thinks is best for himself
Huge Manatee

It's a matter of having two years of eligibility as compared to one.
ImaFBfan
9/21/22 1:10pm
And that is fine. But that is 180 degrees counter to the "nfl argument"
rcbyufan
9/21/22 1:12pm
Then leave before the season starts
Huge Manatee

I don't speak for Dallin nor do I really know what he is thinking.
ImaFBfan
9/21/22 1:16pm
He did make the decision he felt was best for him
Huge Manatee
9/21/22 1:23pm
And if he ends up at Utah, it’s grotesque
vegas guey
9/21/22 2:25pm
I don't agree. It is best for him to not lose a year of eligibility.

How do you know he threw anyone under the bus?
RockyBalboa

Leaving your teammates midway through the season is throwing them under the bus
Huge Manatee

That's your perspective as an outsider with no knowledge

His dad said he wanted to leave to go somewhere that utilized tight ends

What's his dad going to say? If there are other more personal issues, do you

Teammates secretly love it because they get more playing time.

Putting myself in Holkers shoes I understand the decision
Bo Dagget

I agree with your take and don't blame him... but I also don't blame his team-
BoiseBlueCoug

True, I forgot we don't play them for another couple years.
Bo Dagget

We play them in 2024. I hope he's gone by then.

What would your reaction be if Devaughn Vele quit right now and announced he was

Disappointed. But it’s his life, I would wish him well, even if he went to BYU.

One other BIG detail points Dallin going to Utah

Utah has only a club track team.

I think the idea would be that she could stay at BYU if he transfers to
