The Canadian Interuniversity Sport’s reigning rookie of the year Tyler Varga could be headed to Yale.
Varga, a 5-foot-10, 218-pound running back rushed for 799 yards and 15 touchdowns at the University of Western Ontario last season.
Check out highlights of Varga.
Holy Cow. I hope it turns out to be true. Enough burst, great feet, nice ability to finish runs.
ReplyDeleteDo transfers from Canadian colleges have to sit out a year in the Ivy League, or can he get started this fall?

ReplyDeleteFrom the London, Ontario paper today:
ReplyDelete"One of the worst kept secrets is no longer a secret.
Former Western Mustang running back Tyler Varga's name appears on the Yale football team's website as a member of the graduating class of 2016.
The highly recruited Varga, from Kitchener, played for the Mustangs last year, running away with the Canadian university rookie of the year award. Last week he shocked many by announcing he was leaving the Mustangs. He did not announce a destination.
Varga picked Western over a number of CIS schools and some American colleges. But many other U.S. schools stayed away after the talented running back suffered a horrible leg injury in high school. With his performance at Western, he proved the injury did not affect him longterm.
"I haven't talked to him," Mustangs coach Greg Marshall said. "It's over. We're moving on."
As a transfer, Varga will have to sit out a year before he can play for the Bulldogs."
