Report: QB Bo Schneider leaving UCF, transferring to Pitt

According to the website PittsburghPostgame.com, Schneider will continue his collegiate playing career at Pittsburgh after leaving UCF. No reason was given for Schneider’s decision to leave the Knights, although a logjam at his position would be a good place to start.

If/when the transfer comes to fruition, Schneider would very likely be forced to sit out the 2016 season to satisfy NCAA transfer bylaws. Beginning in 2017, Schneider would then have three seasons of eligibility remaining.

The off season has sucked so far for sure, but thank God for my boy's baseball season. The field of milf's this year is shaping up. Last year there were only 2 or 3. This year we might have as many as 5 on our team. Just waiting on the sun dresses to come out of the closet, not that there is anything wrong with yoga pants. I love those damn things! I love the first year players whose mom's aren't quite sure about the rules too. I'm always willing to help and explain. It might be the second best glorious time of the year. College football being #1 of course. PLAY BALL!!

That’s important to me that people understand that.”
