Spiders' star receiver Dejon Brissett runs go route, leaving as grad transfer
JOHN O'CONNOR·21 minutes ago
The University of Richmond's first spring practice was March 1, and Dejon Brissett, the program's top receiver and pro prospect, was in uniform and involved. He is no longer a Spider.
Since then, Brissett determined that he will use his final season of eligibility elsewhere as a graduate transfer, a school spokesman confirmed Wednesday afternoon. Brissett, a 6-foot-2 180-pounder from Ontario, Canada, was named first team All-CAA two seasons ago, when he made 63 catches for 896 yards (7 touchdowns).
Last year, he suffered a season-ending ankle injury on Sept. 13 during a 35-27 win at Saint Francis. In three games, Brissett made 16 receptions for 299 yards and one touchdown. He was also the FCS leader in kickoff returns after three games. He averaged 51.5 yards on four returns and brought back one of those 94 yards for a TD at SFU.
Well when Rocco left for UD he basically told the whole college football landscape we were not interested in football at UR. That hurt in more ways than we originally thought.
Dejon and Jay leaving certainly did not help, but I do not think we can lay this one on the present AD.
Im not holding my breath. Unless we somehow pick up some random high impact transfers. This graduate transfer rule, while I understand it really sucks for a school like us. Have either of our programs benefited from it the way it has decimated us?
IIRC RH is a big fan exactly what you say we need to get away from? All I have ever heard is him wanting to RS everyone he can. I don't know how we get around this but if we don't figure it out soon its going to be like this every year. I feel like the momentum every offseason for our "revenue" sports is geared towards rebuilding/mitigating damage from the offseason.
