collincoguy Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 New Mexico announced sophomore QB Stump Godfrey was granted a conditional release from the program. This report is coming from todays paper Dallas Morning News. They give no reason or any other information regarding the conditional release. I do know that Stump from what little I saw of him playing in High School is a great athlete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collincoguy Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 I do know that it is a long way from East TX to New Mexico and that makes it awfully hard for many kids and their families. I have no information if this was an issue with Stump. I do wonder if we might see him back in Texas playing at one of the smaller programs.

collincoguy Posted July 20, 2011 Author Share Posted July 20, 2011 Stump will not be here in Texas, headed to University of Hawaii. Going from the desert to the tropics...are they still the fighting Rainbows? I wish him the best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBacktheVEER Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Stump will not be here in Texas, headed to University of Hawaii. You sure about that? He must be going with his former coach who will be the next head coach there...!!! I also heard Santa Claus is not real. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ih8refs Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 hawaii is D1 so why sit out a year and play @ a local small college. Small college or not you can get into a big program. Ex: Cam Newton Great talent as long is he doesn't watse it ! What are you talking about?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex: Cam Newton Great talent as long is he doesn't watse it ! He won't waste a year of eligibility if he goes to Hawaii and sits a year. He should still have a redshirt year to use. That would give him 3 years to play at a D1 after sitting this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyePride11 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I read in an article that said he cannot play for any team that is in the Mountain West Conference or any future opponent until 2015. And as of 2012 Hawaii will join MWC. So, somebody got their wires crossed somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckeyeDad Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 The New Mexico quarterback situation became more clear today as Stump Godfrey decided to transfer. Godfrey is eligible to transfer to any non-Mountain West or anyone on the future Lobo schedule through 2015. Those banned schools include: Air Force Colorado State Hawaii UNLV Wyoming Nevada Fresno State Boise State San Diego State Texas Tech New Mexico State Texas UTEP Arizona State So that is not too many schools to be restricted from, but expect Godfrey to got to a school in the state of Texas where he is from.

BuckeyePride11 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I would love for him to go to a school a little closer to home so we could afford to see him play. I never missed a game when he was playing at Gilmer. Watching these kids grow up is amazing. Especially if you can see them play at the next level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlamingJ Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Have heard rumors he may be going to a school which has been pleased with a quaterback from Gilmer. He may be going to Tulsa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CasualObserver70 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Tulsa would be a good choice. I thought I heard at some point this past year that SFA might also be a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWalum07 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 With tyler boyd heading to SFA and both players being very similar in attributes it would be a good battle at the QB position. WIth that said I think the Attaway's job is safe with his skill set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckeyePride11 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 It is my understanding that the NCAA ruled New Mexico could not make stipulation on where he would attend school I just heard yesterday from one of his family members that he is headed to Hawaii. As you stated, NCAA explained that New Mexico cannot make the rules on where his is to going to school. Being from Gilmer, I was a little bummed out when i heard he had left their program. But, I was also bummed for him even choosing them in the first place. He is a winner and I hope he makes the best of his talent and ability for Hawaii. Hopefully they see the young man the way we did watching him grow up. We from Gilmer know how much of a special player and leader he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
