Morgan Roberts had a terrific career after transferring from Clemson to Yale but transfers aren't always that successful.

Dartmouth discovered that several years before Buddy Teevens returned to Hanover when a potential Big Ten starter struggled after transferring to Dartmouth, eventually leaving the program during the season.

Towson, which will visit Dartmouth on Oct. 15, 2016, learned the same lesson a year ago when Kevin Olsen, a onetime top-100 recruit who had transferred  from the Miami Hurricanes, was dismissed from the Tiger program before ever playing a game. (LINK)

Turns out Towson is giving it another shot with the addition of Morgan Mahalak, a four-star recruit who redshirted one year at Oregon and ran the scout team last fall. Mahalak was the nation's fifth-ranked dual-threat quarterback as a senior according to Oregon Live.  (LINK)
