Is he still coming to USD? I noticed he is no longer listed on the roster.
Thanks

Well, he isn't on the roster, and after Googling it, Flanagan is going to the University of Nebraska-Kearney now....um, this is an interesting move considering I thought he was a key player for USD in the past and here in the future...no offense to Jeremy Blount, but he seemed to do more than him, even though I really like Blount. I consider this a decent loss. www.kearneyhub.com/sports/local/article_9f08fa2c-9767-11e0-a29d-001cc4c03286.html |

I know the staff was high on Urban and I'm not happy to see him leave before he ever got here but good luck to him and I hope his baseball career works out well for him. Given the time of year, I'd bet he has dreams of playing for Big Red in the CWS in his hometown of Omaha. Funny thing is I think USD football might have given him the opportunity to play against Big Red @ Memorial someday.
I believe Urban was projected as a safety, with the kid transferring in from Vandy the loss of Urban shouldn't hurt as much.
Sorry to hear Touchdown Tommy is leaving. These things happen in D1 football. It could be a case where recruits are coming in bigger, stronger, faster and he saw his PT was going to diminish. It could be the coaches saw this and helped him get to a place where he could play and finish out his career. He may have gone for personal reasons. I'm just speculating but also wish him the best of luck in the future. Wow, UNK really made a haul of transfers from UNO.

Yes, it is too bad to see Flanagan leave. He played with a lot of heart but in the end he wasn't going to get taller or faster.

does anyone know why tommy flanagan transferred? it seemed to me that he was a lock as a starter, or is there a redshirt or an incoming freshman coming in that i haven't heard about?

There is this dude that went to Troy that USD got who is a wide receiver, plus Tommy was not a lock at all as a starter. Will Powell and Dusty Nowotny are the starters with Jeremy Blount pushing Tommy. He was in line for the 3rd/4th WR position.
