Come on, by now, you're not surprised.
How much is he worth in the open market? $500,000?

Speedy but very undersized for this level of football. We won’t miss him on the field.

I am not necessarily looking to bash any former Beavers... but our WR core was likely the biggest disappointment this season, as compared to the general pleasant surprise our defense was. .
Of everybody we are losing, WR/TE are pretty darn low on my panic meter.
We have just landed a 4* WR commit, another one is still in play to my understanding. We have young talent. and to be perfectly honest, Bolden was pretty much an average starting D1 WR. We are losing the about #19 or #20 WR in the Pac-12.
Best of luck kid. We have ballers coming in that want to play here. HIs careful consideration was the likelihood he wasn't the #1 WR on this team next year.

I'm sure that no agents of other schools are offering Silas any money to transfer. That would be highly unethical. Rgeorge assures me this is not the case.

Sad to see him go. Fun player to watch and was easy to root for him.

Silas worked his ass off for this opportunity. With BG a serious contender to start id take money and a better shot at the league too.
Anyone claiming we won't miss him is crazy, dudes a cheat code and best hands on the team the last two years.
Good luck man!
WR will be interesting next year with all 3 starters gone.

We have ballers coming in that want to play here. HIs careful consideration was the likelihood he wasn't the #1 WR on this team next year. I found the passing game underwhelming during the Smith regime. Yes, there were times when it excelled and won games. Other times, not so much. As a whole, the quarterbacks were too inconsistent, there were no standouts in the WR group, and there were times when the coaches had such a complete lack of confidence in the passing game that they abandoned it altogether. We didn't have much of a long game under Nolan, Gebbia, or Gulbranson. DJU brought that to the table and that was good. But he also brought some problems that had been noted at Clemson, such as a tendency to hold on to the ball for too long and stretches where he simply could not find receivers that were wide open. Overall, there were too many times when the passing game was a liability under Smith. I'm hoping that the acquisition of a couple of noteworthy WR's and QB's this off-season will bump up the passing game to greater things. |

I don't get the negative comments regarding Silas. He was our 1st or 2nd best receiver as I kind of see Gould and him as interchangeable. Yes, he was small so what. At anypoint on the field he could break it for a td. To somehow say well we recruited a 4 star guy that can take his place. Maybe, but probably not. I'd rather rely on a small, quick, fast experienced wide receiver than a receiver with zilch for experience.

Peak duck fan mentality. |
