According to an article on ESPN.com. six players, including two QBs (Tyler Murphy and Max Staver) are looking to transfer. Any FCS programs looking to pick up some players for 2014 or 15? For the record, Murphy graduated yesterday so he would be eligible to play next year without sitting out.

According to an article on ESPN.com. six players, including two QBs (Tyler Murphy and Max Staver) are looking to transfer. Any FCS programs looking to pick up some players for 2014 or 15? For the record, Murphy graduated yesterday so he would be eligible to play next year without sitting out.

With Murphy, wouldn't he qualify under the same set of rules that allowed Russell Wilson to play at Wisconsin without sitting a year?

Yes, graduate students, so long as their program is not offered at their current instiution, can play football at the same level at which they were playing before.

That will be the trick. Florida offers a pretty wide variety of graduate programs. Will be interesting to see where Murphy lands and what his graduate major will be. His undergrad was in communications of some type.

From ESPN: Other players leaving Florida include include tight end Kent Taylor (http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/stats/_/id/535931/kent-taylor), fullback Rhaheim Ledbetter (http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/535918/rhaheim-ledbetter) and offensive linemen Quinteze Williams (http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/535936/quinteze-williams), Trevon Young (http://espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=551337) and Ian Silberman (http://espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=503978). Murphy and Silberman graduated Saturday and will transfer under the NCAA rule that allows graduate students to play immediately and not have to sit out a year.

Murphy wanted to play ball close to home in Connecticut, so UConn seems like where he's going to go.
