Jim McElwain Restricted The Transfer Of This Top QB To Michigan

ESPN published an article highlighting the long journey of West Virginia QB Will Grier. A junior now and former Florida quarterback, Grier, who has 26-passing touchdowns on the season, was restricted from transferring to the SEC, Florida State and Michigan by Jim McElwain:

Toward the end, when Will agreed to leave, McElwain printed out prepared releases for schools he could transfer to, which precluded the SEC, rival Florida State and future opponent Michigan. And, as Will put it, “left it at that.”

Florida lost to Michigan in the season opener this season.
