BG has a 7th transfer for this year and their 3rd on the offensive line. Coach's comments on signing day were that BG would have up to 10 transfers, with 2 or 3 of the additional (numbers 7-10) would be "big dudes."
This latest one is by for the most experienced of any lineman BG has. His name is Jakari Robinson, and he's a graduate player who will have one year remaining.
He's originally from Munford, AL. He was a 2-star recruit out of HS and had a bunch of offers, most of them from the FCS. He was all-state in 4A in Alabama and they made the state semis one year he was playing.
He signed at UC and played for four years. Red-shirted his first year and then made 6 starts the next. He played all 14 as a sophomore and 7 games in 2020. He had COVID in 2020 and split time with another lineman and when Robinson was healthy again the staff told him they were sticking with the other guy.
He was graduate transferring and planned to go to Arkansas State until the AAC changed their rule about intraconference transfers. On that very day, he flipped to Memphis where he played last year, He played 7 games with no starts for the Tigers.
He's 6'1" and 308. based on his last Memphis listing and appears to have played C and G. UC had some big running attacks during his years there.
Welcome to the Falcons, Jakari.
