2021 QB Jay Allen

"And he told me a little story about how when he was at Auburn he tried to get Gus Malzahn to offer a guy named Lamar Jackson. And he goes `I’m having flashbacks to that.’”


I did not know this.... Gives me quite a bit of confidence in Lashlee's evaluations

I'd definitely take this kid over Garcia

No. If you can’t tell that’s just a recruiting pitch then I got a lake house in NYC to sell you.

A consensus Top 250 kid is a 'developmental prospect'? Only on CIS

Top 250 prospects in the QB room at Miami within the last 6 months:

Williams, Jarren
Perry, N’Kosi
Martell, Tate

All took a redshirt year. None turned out to be very good. I love TVD’s skill set. But he needs to get a lot stronger (like almost all incoming freshmen too). He also played in Connecticut, which isn’t exactly a high school football hotbed. He will need time to adjust to the speed of the game (like almost all incoming freshmen too). He also didn’t play in a system akin to Lashlee’s in HS. He will need time to learn the nuances of a Briles/Dykes system (like almost all incoming freshmen would).

Speaking of only on CIS, only on CIS is saying a kid needs a couple years to refine his skills construed as a bad thing. Because he’s a Top 250 prospect he’s ready to start as a freshman? GTFO.

Always funny to read brain-dead all-or-nothing comparisons.

Either Van Dyke is "ready to start as a freshman" or he's a "developmental/non-college-ready" quarterback. There's nothing in-between. Top 250 QBs suddenly become "developmental" if the coaching staff redshirts them in the first year. You are only a "college-ready" QB if you start as a true freshman, regardless of a school's needs or non-needs.

The nonsense that you read on this board.

ToiletBowlMagic strikes again.

Good stuff. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you were actually learning.

I actually like Jay Allen a lot as a qb prospect. Raw, but a lot to work with. And, I’d love to stick it to O’Sullivan and UF Baseball.

However, I’m concerned this whole “I want to play football” thing is a charade geared are creating leverage for the MLB 21 draft. He is a likely 1st round pick so leverage to move up and increase guaranteed money is real. I’m just suspect on him ever playing college football.
