In first off-season in my UMASS dynasty (I'm using 'former' Tennessee WR Coach Zach Azzanni so using Tennessee playbook) and I had Kareem Walker transfer in from UM. He didn't play a down his Freshman year and ended up red shirting so I guess he must have been promised immediate playing time? Regardless, should be fun using him.
Reeled in all eight of these transfers following the first year of my TeamBuilder dynasty

just an update, all these guys except Grant are starting for me now me. cool story with Grant tho: gave him significant PT when we faced south Alabama (his former team) and he ended up tossing four touchdowns. Johnson and barber got to play their former team, Auburn, too but even better, in our bowl game... both struggled and we got destroyed as expected.
anyways, Cathedral (which is Georgia State with dif persona) is the hotbed for transfers as I've gotten at least four requests every season in my dynasty (started some basic house rules on who I can accept). latest pickup was a former four star LB from Miami who is currently sitting out at an 81 OVR (edit: as a FRESHMAN) lol the guy is going to be a monster.
Alabama LB Reuben Foster transferred to Florida after his RS-Freshman year.
Alabama QB Thomas Darrah transferred to my Auburn dynasty and put up big numbers.
Michigan QB Denard Robinson transferred to Northwestern
Texas A&M QB Kyle Allen transferred to Texas State after his freshman year. Put up huge numbers there with Steve Sarkisan as head coach. Ironically, given how in real life, Allen transferred to another TX school (Houston) and Sark was fired from USC, it's not implausible to think that the two could become part of Texas State.
