5 for 14 with 26 yards passing

[RVACane]

I didn’t want his *** as the second qb tbh he can’t run that limits an offense regardless of how good our line is why would you not want a guy who can get yards if things are covered such archaic thinking but of course people still have wet dreams about Dorsey so they think he could be the second coming and that’s not the case.

We could have went after Marcel reed lanoris sellers Austin Simmons **** Dylan rizk Darian mensah since we’re going bargain bin shopping for high upside guys my personal favorites was Rashada and Aiden chiles who was underrated until the all American bowl and is from an area Mario’s familiar with. All better options then check down Emory

That’s reasonable in my opinion. But I don’t care as much if they’re taking a flier on a second guy and go with some trait they see or whatever, though o also like running or mobile QBs like you, but we went with Emory who ended up being the only guy that class because Rashada bailed but then we went straight to Judd, whiffed on Noland and there was no one else.

 

[TRick72]

LOL at seeing Emory’s HS film and thinking his average HS arm was going to translate into playing against anyone other than 5’4 Vineyard Vines Umpa Loompas

Judd the dud you could’ve went after Cj Bailey lol idk man we do some stupid **** like what if we take Bailey early and treat him as a priority does Jeremiah smith lock in with us because he knows at worse he has a good qb he’s familiar with but no we wait until late and now they both tell us **** off lol

I remember a guy bringing lagway on here and saying he liked us but we didn’t pursue lol again I guess. I get not wanting to invest into an unproven commodity with so much capital. So far from the looks of the portal the markets bare. Also the guys you’ve signed are not good enough to play at Miami so that formula may prove futile. Idk man this shouldn’t be this hard for a major program like us set up shop in Texas and find a good young qb every cycle lol.

 

[90scane]

Makes a ton of sense. I can see why Robby Ashford and Somebody Gronkowski are getting rave reviews as we speak. That portal is a layup.

The portal has experienced QBs. Tell us how many cfp QBs are true freshman? Now tell us how many are on the team they committed to in HS.

We can take elite HS QBs and pay them for 2-3 years before they are ready to start or we can take the kid who has 2-3 years of playing experience from the portal. Free agency is always easier than paying and developing kids over 2-3 years.

 

[lauderdaleballer]

This reminds me of when Tua got hurt and Skylar Thompson came in.

Dolphin fans thought he could do something since the last time he saw meaningful action he was competitive against Buffalo in the playoffs on the road.

And Thompson had been in McDaniel’s system for a couple of years.

Enter Emory. Last meaningful game he played in, he gave eventual undefeated fsu a scare.

And he’s been in the system for a couple of years.

He even caused the dude he was competing for the backup job to transfer again.

So here is the only scenario which still makes the coaching staff look incompetent:

They truly believed based on what Emory showed in practice they could win so they would only pursue portal qbs that were game changers.

They were clearly wrong about Emory. And he is the same qb from the fsu game.

That’s on the coaching staff for not developing. And that’s on the coaching staff for having him as the backup.

What if Cam Ward was out a couple of games like Tua? We would’ve been out of the playoffs in October.

Just like it was malpractice for McDaniel to go with Skylar Thompson. It is malpractice for Mario to potentially have Emory as our qb1 next year.

Too be fair he played the same way against Clemson and FSU. There just wasn’t any lucky completions yo George. The kid always struggled with accuracy and pocket awareness. Fortunate for him his passes are always dropped by the opponents. The kid isn’t ready right now. He’s 2 years away imo

 

[Zombie-Cane]

I'm wondering what CJ Daniels saw at Practice.

Have you seen our defense? If that is who he was throwing against, he probably looked like an NFL Hall of Famer.

 

[DMoney]

That wasn't the point he made. Dmoney assured us that the portal was an easier way to acquire a starting QB due to ,"plenty of supply." Reality is starting to set in so he ignored the question.

I didn't ignore anything. You were wrong last year, our Portal QB was in New York for the Heisman, and now you are returning to the same failed argument.

We could've taken Mendoza and others. In my opinion, we should've taken Mendoza, but that's a different debate. There have been plenty of options and hopefully there will be more. On the other hand, the high school QB we took threw for 1.9 YPA. That's the danger with high school quarterbacks.

You could say that Emory was always a flawed prospect, and I'd agree- I said so at the time. But if you go to the Top 10 QBs that year, five have transferred, two are sitting behind Portal QBs, another is riding the bench and the final two are solid but unspectacular players (Nico and Avery Johnson).

Portal QB is the way to go, which is why the best teams in the CFP all start Portal QBs.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

I don’t care about easy vs hard. It is all about $$$. Sure they could have taken one of the other QBs and been ok getting to 8-4 or they could try to land another elite QB.

so, translated, they are/will be back-dooring another starting QB from a playoff team. Sounds like putting all the eggs in one basket again.
Take another QB who can at least compete with Nickel to get him ready. I have no expectations for EMory going forward.

I'd argue that Avery Johnson has potential. He's very much a mobile QB, has a decent arm and is a gamer.

agree. But who is in the portal that qualifies? So far any really viable options are gone. Sounds like betting there will be someone else they already know about or are already working.

 

[Ozzieman81]

Im sure someone said it but i think if he just handed off the ball all Second half we would have been rooting for him come 2025 but holy crap that was bad. and i was rooting for him the whole time smh

 

[90scane]

Agents are backdooring a lot more than fans think. If your kid was good but not ready for the nfl, wouldn’t you want to maximize revenue?

 

[Clwtrdan]

Were all the offensive starters in in the second half?

 

[SinisterCane]

It’s gonna get worse since Manny’s players are leaving

 

[Canaanite]

4D chess huh???

Not 4D chess at all. Coaches see these guys everyday in practice & film sessions so they know what they're dealing with, They know who can really play at this level. However fans become biased to their opinions based on HS highlights & garbage time plays.

"Sometimes you gotta pop out n Show "

After what we saw the other night, do you expect Mario and company to push for a portal QB in the spring. You mentioned a name (Avery Johnson) I would love to have at the U.

In your opinion, why weren’t they more aggressive with the portal QBs outside of Mateer? Flawed belief in Emory or are they cooking up something with a qb not yet in the portal?

Nvm, I knew the goal posts would move and you are intent on setting the argument somewhere else. Carry on.

Our future offense and QB.


Should be a fun year next year. We’re about have a FSU type season.
