Luke Nickel

[JD08]

How good is Lagway? How much better would he be with a year to develop?

 

[bacane]

He is our starter Day 1

Why don’t we first get him on campus before coronating. Like him a lot, but major step up for frosh QB.

If they allowed a real open competition.. I think he would probably beat out Emory.

Just don’t see Sorryario making that call to go with the true freshman at QB… even if he displays to be better.

Honestly, if a 7-5/8-4 season is inevitable like the mopes say, it would make sense to roll with Nickel and let him learn/take the lumps that come with entering CFB. He'd have a great OL protecting him, a solid run game to rely on, and good WR talent too.

You'd have a battle tested QB going into 2026, and could solely focus on putting the best skill players around him.

Kid is a game manager to me, he doesn’t strike me as a kid you can give the ball to and say go win it for me. Kid has talent but he’s no play maker.

The newest 3 star QB signee will forever be our savior.

Mario/ACC Championship 2030.

Let's start the campaign now.

So if he was a 5 star you would accept him as our savior? Which means nothing more than someone who doesn’t know more about high school football than you places a label on him and you accept that label as gospel.

Thank God you don't post alot

 

[The canesman]

If the portal fails and Emory has short comings play the freshman. Every year now is a rebuild.

What is a "Game Manager"?

 

[Applecane]

Just let the QBs compete. We'll see who wins...

What is a "Game Manager"?

Lol apparently it’s someone who goes 21-22 413 yrds and 4 TDs in a state championship game

So he "managed" the game....lol!

You've bashed this kid in every thread he's mentioned. What possible reason do you have to do that. You're not a frequent poster, so what's with all the hate?

 

[FuriousStyles]

Oh and Brock Purdy apparently

 

[Cane&Abel]

Oh and Brock Purdy apparently

 

[QuattroCane]

Clearly he's not the guy FFS he had one incompletion in the state championship game, which screams "game manager".

On a non-asinine note did you see his playoff stats, jeebus, he was on fire.

In five postseason games, he threw for 1,431 yards and 20 TDs (0 INTs) while adding 178 yards rushing and three more scores.

That's good right?
