The portal is closed.

Players cannot enter the portal after Dec 28. The portal reopens April 16 for 10 days.

Players on playoff teams or Bowl teams will have an additional window of 5 days after their season comes to an end.

Almost all the best portal players are gone at this point, especially at the QB position.
Yea but Mario gonna take his merry old time as usual ….im going out on a limb and guess there’s no Cam Ward left in the portal….just a guess though
 
Im sure already mentioned but;

How and why did Mario yet again kick the FG? A TD there and its 45-35, game over. The running game was dominant but they decided to throw, kick a FG, an then the next drive tried to throw and they punted. Terrible management

Emory is not good. The game moves too fast, average at best tools

Dont give the Dorsey comp please. Dorsey is way better than Emory ever wll be

Thats a wrap, they're going to have a hard time defending him this offseason

I don't usually get this worked up over stuff llike this but what just happened on that field was criminal. You cannot tell me they really thought he was good enough to start next season. Not in any way , shape or form. They didn't even trust him to throw for a whole quarter. It was exactly like last season. Where's all the development that supposedly took place?

I think back to Gunnar Stockton having to come off the bench for UGA.... Light years different

that was a joke.
I agree with you to a point. I don't know if it's a trust factor or Mario just being risk adverse. I think this was Mario and Dawson going to the Clemson playbook. It was great while it was working.

I say this because the LSU WR committed to us after watching Emory throw. If you read my posts during the season, I said it was a huge mistake not getting our backup QB and backup WRs game reps during the season. There were games where the backups could have played in the 4th quarter, but we left the starters in.

We don't play the backups and then say they're terrible when they don't perform well in the bowl game.

Two games in a row Mario relying on the defense 😂😂😂

Should’ve kept running the ball.

The 2nd down throw from the 3 when you were killing them combined with putting in Jordan Lyle the RB instead of Fletcher or Martinez was a repeat of Syracuse. Game changed when Lyle was chosen to decide a drive.

Mario is going to Mario.
He went with the future, don’t know what ya got until you do. He knows now it’s not Emery. Check. He knows now it’s not Guidry, check. But, some of those kids played well. Check. Let’s move on, and continue to build this team. Wanna sit and wallow in shoulda, coulda, go for it. Walk over and party with I State and their lame win. Move on. Some of our kids can play, let’s get them a QB.
 
I gotta tell you guys, Mendoza is a 10x better QB then Emory. He can actually make some throws compared to a guy who can't make any throws.
Mendoza committed to Indiana. So who is in the portal that we can go after. Maybe we offer $4 million for Ewers

He certainly looked like **** on the three opportunities he had calls that let him throw the ball. Or are you also judging him based on hand off after handoff called for him or was it the continuous stream of bubble passes that gave that away. I forget, y'all are the same dudes who though mawik rosier was God's blessings because he could complete a screen pass with the occasional down field ****.

Only thing to take away from this game was a COMPLETE **** JOB by Dawson who gave all the reps to cam and then when cam was pulled at the half Emory wasn't prepared for anything. Past that the only other clear assessment made here is either Dawson or Mario or BOTH don't trust Emory to execute the play book. Other thing I would agree on is he displayed zero pocket awareness or ability to move in the pocket. Kid was a ****** statue and was locked on to one or two reads entire time.

I ain't never been the one who holds my tongue. When something is good I'll say it just like when it's bad. Y'all should try that same thing.

Carson Beck gets knocked out. Gunner Stocton comes in and runs the offense. Cam is pulled, the coaches coach not to lose the game and Emory looks totally incompetent. Then with him looking incompetent, we go for 3 and the predictable ensues.

Atrocious end of the season - but fairly predictable - sadly.
 
Hi2nd most points ISU scored this season against P4 competition (43 against Baylor)

the ultimate failure was on Mario and Dawson. they knew Emory was gonna play and they didn't ask him to actually play when they put him in. you would think with a month to prepare, Emory would be ready. 2 games in a row, Mario put the game in the defenses hand hahahaha
