Kevin Olsen transferring to Towson

Hurricane QB is heading to Towson. 3 year left to prove to the world he isn't a major fuck up in life.
Former Miami quarterback Kevin Olsen appears to have found a new home at Towson.
The beleaguered signal-caller announced on Instagram on Thursday that he would transfer to the FCS Tigers, posting a picture of the school's helmet and a football with the words "A second chance."
Miami had announced in September that Olsen, a redshirt freshman, was no longer enrolled in school following his third different suspension from the football program, as he had been charged with driving under the influence and having a fake or stolen driver's license.
A Wayne, New Jersey, native, Olsen was charged in May 2013 in his hometown with leaving the scene of an accident and failing to report an incident.
With the Hurricanes, Olsen was suspended for last season's Russell Athletic Bowl for a violation of team rules.
Olsen had entered Miami as a four-star prospect from the Class of 2013 and had a chance to be the team's starting quarterback in 2014 before getting suspended for the season's first two games for a violation of team standards.

You've got to be a pretty bad apple to get kicked from the Miami football program.
Here's hoping he's learned some lessons.

Towson showed improvement at the end of the season. Tigers win the CAA next year…book it!

I agree. That three game losing streak with the loss to URI as the cherry on top was a really impressive way to close out the year.

I'd think that after he screws up at Towson & gets dismissed you'll see him go to JMU....

We take character guys. He wouldn't last long here. Might be a good fit for the Griz though.

Meh. Those aren't bad violations. Just a typical teenager.

You don't like finishing the season with double tight end sets - with one of the TEs behind center?

When I saw the headline I was thinking "What felonies did this guy commit to get kicked out of Thug U?" There has to be more to it. You don't get kicked out of the biggest renegade program in the history of college football over some low level misdemeanors.

Well that lasted long. Like I implied in my above post, TU should have known better than to take someone who manage to get kicked out of Thug U....

Didn't even make it to spring practice. Kids with attitudes don't mix well with Ambrose and 6am practices. I never thought he would last.
