Oklahoma tight end Taylor McNamara announced via twitter he would transfer to USC, where USC obviously has a glaring need. McNamara will be immediately eligible. He only played in 11 games with the Sooners and caught one pass.
Inside USC with Scott Wolf
USC football, Trojans basketball and other sports news
Wow, Klown U/Sark land an 11 game and 1 catch TE. McNamara was always wide open in Oklahoma games. Klown on SUCCster’s.
No question he needs to improve, but, if he continues to develop, he should be a viable threat in the red zone……
Unfortunately for this guy there is an SAE at usc.
So why is he eligible immediately Scottie?
I have the same question.
Kessler is going to make him an all-american!!! Can he run the bubble screen route?
I dub thee “TANK”..
fit UNG!
I think we went after him the year we got Jalen Cope Fitzpatrick. And he was a 4 star that year. That’s all I can remember.
Is there a scholarship available?
McNamara graduated in 3 years at OU and that is why he is eligible immediately.
He was also a RS sophomore, so he still has two years of eligibility remaining, according to sources…….
Excellent reporting Helen and 8 Krap. Where’s Waldo?
This is a great addition to the program. Tyler is a ( local ) San Diego kid and he is a legit tight end 6′ 5″ 245. He will contribute this season !! Nice pick up !!
Another interesting tidbit of news on McNamara’s pending transfer, from Ryan Abraham:
“The Trojans have no initial scholarships remaining in 2015, so McNamara will come in as a blueshirt, counting towards the class of 2016. He joins Gardena (Calif.) Serra three-star wide receiver Deontay Burnett and Anaheim (Calif.) Servite four-star offensive tackle Clayton Johnston as blueshirts who will be eligible to play in 2015 despite being 2016 initial counters.”
