I wonder if its a coaching decision of moving forward with younger players, or a disagreement between player and coach. Not saying there are any issues it just makes you scratch you head when the conference leading tackler leaves. They did go with familiarity playing for the old OC.

If I remember correctly, New Haven has a pretty good graphics design school. That was his major.
Could simply be a possible job fell thru. He already graduated and rolled out from Elon, due to that stated decision.
Job falls through, he now wants a little more time to look and misses football, enrolls in another school after leaving Elon as he probably had another scholarship opportunity and more training for his field.
It could be that simple.

the formula is different for all these guys but a redshirt year and a degree in hand these guys pretty much did not have the Playing Time which equal STAYING Time. Last year Campbell got a couple more guys that had that one more year of eligibilty and ALL these guys were recruited by previous coaches. For Corey it sounds like a last ditch effort by a D-2 to fill a spot. You guys need follow New Haven I just do not have time. Will concentrate on what Elon has to offer. Best wishes to ALL involved.

New Haven is garbage. He obviously missed football. Too bad he abandoned his teammates. Glad he has a degree from Elon. That is important. But as far as I'm concerned, good riddance.
Let's roll with who we have and have a great year.

So new Haven is garbage....

But c'mon fc4life, just like anyone else he's free to make any decision in life he wants.
I wish the guy well. He gave it his all while at Elon.

I wish him nothing but the best and as I mentioned, I'm glad he received his Elon degree.
However, it's reasonable to be disappointed when you see him show up on a D2 roster and know her should be wearing the maroon and gold.

He showed up at a D2 school with a former Elon coach and with former players. If he had left for a job that fell through then his spot at Elon was already filled and he may not have had the option to come back.

New Haven is not garbage, actually a very successful program. Most likely give Elon a run for there money looking at how Elon played against Gardner Webb. As for the 4 transfers, pushed out is a good way to put it.

Just to answer your questions my brother didn't abandon his team! Some people just don't know how to run a team and some people take advantage of good players. I strongly suggest that if you have any questions about my brother, Corey Mitchell, PLEASE contact him instead of posting about him on a forum. Thank you have a great day.

Also and one more thing! If a D1 Player shows up on a D2 Roster, What does that say about that D1 program?

I haven't posted on this thread because I considered Corey a friend and didn't want to say something I'd regret. My disappointment comes mainly from selfishness. I was looking forward to seeing him and watching him play one more year. His abrupt departure didn't allow any goodbyes nor watching him in a triumphant senior year. So that was more about me than him. Of course, I wish him nothing but the best. Football is only short term. The rest of your life, God, family... These are the things that really matter. I wish Corey all the best both for his senior football season and the rest of those things that really matter.

So I heard he left Elon to take a job. Job fell through and decided to take an opportunity to keep playing with an old coach and some of this former players. Not sure if he tried to come back to elonormal or not. Also heard he was suspended up there already. Any one know more info?
