I believe this is a major coup of Sligo footall. However, i do believe he is surplus to Mayo requirements. He is past his peak and was competing with guys like Seamus O'Shea and Jason Gibbons for places, throw in Barry Moran and Aidan O Shea and maybe Pat Harte also. He performs very well for Ballagh on weekly basis, and deserves to be playing Intercounty, not with Mayo however.
Even given our limited pickings, I am not a fan of taking another county's leftovers. Only Sligo born players through and through deserve the chance to wear the jersey.
