Who knows, maybe one of these days former Michigan quarterback Tate Forcier will actually make a decision.
I mean, a guy can hang on to a dream (or, from a window), can’t he?
Until then, we’re stuck in the dead heat of summer slowly tracking Forcier’s whittle-down process as he decides where his next collegiate stop will be*.
(*note: we are assuming, of course, that the feeling of desire is mutual between Forcier and the prospective landing spot; that wasn’t the case with USC)
According to an interview with ESPN’s Joe Schad -- who previously noted that former Nebraska QB Cody Green would be visiting USC as early as next week -- Forcier says he’s narrowed his destination choices to a pair of current WAC schools -- San Jose State and Hawaii -- and says Nevada is also (sort of) in the mix.
As you’ll recall, Forcier reportedly had some prior interest in Hawaii back in June, going so far as to send a three-page letter to UH, according to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser.
Hawaii coach Greg McMackin declined to comment on the matter and the Forcier family Twitter page later denied that Tate had “contacted or visited the University of Hawaii”.
That appears to have changed; Forcier says he plans to visit UH next week.
But whether Forcier ends up at Hawaii, San Jose State, Nevada or any other Division 1 FBS school, he will have to sit out one year per NCAA transfer rules. In the meantime, it appears Forcier is taking online courses to ensure his eligibility for enrollment.
