Guess this article is incorrect..

Even without signature win, Tagovailoa’s legacy is worth remembering

Tagovailoa had a chance to earn a signature win in his last home game as a Terp, but the team fell short in a 31-24 loss to No. 2 Michigan.

"The Terps’ quarterback has, at most, two games left with the program, his eligibility exhausted after four prolific seasons."

I support facts! The waiver still would make since in retrospect, if he wants to apply Covid year to another year.

Yes, but if you read one of the things I posted earlier, the "waiver" for the COVID year is an AUTOMATIC waiver. Meaning, it is not subject to applying to the NCAA and waiting to hear back as to the results.

So while the WORD "waiver" is, I guess, technically accurate, because it is an AUTOMATIC waiver, then Taulia is good to go. He does not have to "apply" for the "waiver" to actually GET the "waiver".

Yes. It is incorrect.

You used Howards 9 rushing TDs to boost him. However you neglected to mention anything about Ward having 8 rushing TDs. So essentially Howard in 3 years starting has 30 turnovers averaging 10 per year. Ward has 44 in 4 years averaging 11 per year. You staged an entire arguement with incorrect and misleading facts. If you like Howard that's fine but dont make up stats to support it. Don't give me a 2:1 ratio about how turnover prone Ward is that's based on ****.

44 in

Ya…Ward's decision making is really questionable. And he doesn't handle pressure well. We may be able to protect him well enough here, and I wouldn't be angry if he comes here. Just realize those pretty yardage stats from throwing it 50 times a game come with a LOT of risk. There's some arm talent there, and he's mobile enough…But overall I don't understand the board's infatuation with him.

Exactly.

Pass happy offense and more turnover prone than Howard even if you dont like the facts. I think Howard fits Dawson's scheme better and will protect the football better than Ward.

wow.. that's.. kinda insane

ward is electric but ... it's also the pac 12 which I believe is fair context


people can ask bo Nix, just saying

 

[Canezum5]

Sounds about right. Game manager

All we need bro. We recruiting too much speed and talent. All Miami needs is a good game manager that can pick up a 3rd and 7 with his legs to keep drives alive.

Stetson Bennett types is perfect

Blind reveal, who is more turnover prone?
Option A

Option B

If we get him whatever. I just dont want to hear a game manager was at the top of the board. That is gross.

That's fair. Can't be mad at that.

I'd much rather have Dillon or Cam but Pratt can win here

He redshirted in 2019 at Alabama.

So he’s right…He’s got one more year of eligibility w/o requiring a waiver.

2019 RS freebie
2020 Covid freebie
2021 Yr 1
2022 Yr 2

Why you @ me? I didn't comment on Will Howard.

I just scanned those images quickly…Are you ignoring fumbles?

Before someone tells me how many games we "would have won" with a game manger save your breath. Just because this season went like that doesn't mean it will repeat next year. What happens in a Louisville game when we need critical throws in a back and forth game? Every season is different so keep 2023 in 2023.

You stated you didn't understand why people wanted Ward. I provided you with one of the reasons.

He didn't RS in 2019

I said I wouldn't be angry with Ward…But don't understand this board's obsession with him.

And then you asked me "who is more turnover prone"…I didn't know the who was until I scrolled up.

And again, you gonna address these fumbles or nah? I mean since you're the one throwing a turnover comparison at me for some reason.

Well technically its

2019 = Played 5 games = Year 1
2020 = Played 4 games = Redshirt
2021 = Covid freebie
2022 = Year 2
2023 = Year 3
2024 = Eligible to play

The fumbles are an issue. He had 8 fumbles last year. Washington State had the second worse OL after Colorado in the Pac 12. If we have any coaching whatsoever that is the easiest thing to fix on a QB that is throwing for 4000 yards and 30 TDs. Our issue was giving the QB too much time.
