You think fickle could stop him from leaving if he wanted to?
I definitely would. He showed flashes his first 2 years. In 9 games his first 2 years he had 16tds and only 2 picks. Reed hasn’t been great as a passer either
Proven QBs usually don’t enter the portal. Most of the time it’s guys that was highly ranked that showed flashes or that’s looking to get pt. Last cycle had about 5 or 6 guys that was starters and had some success but usually you don’t get that many
For sure. Agree that it's much harder to do. Like D$ and plenty of others have said what Cam has done has laid a blueprint for others to at least see what it can be.... I just would rather start there & then go from there. Someone like a John Mateer is much more attractive than an air noland at first glance to me.... obviously plenty of intangibles and other items to iron out too..... Cam's a baller playstyle wise but his demeanor & leadership shouldn't be look past.
Oh yea no doubt. I’m not in favor of taking a young qb who hasn’t played. More so a guy like weigman or Arnold. Former 5 stars who have actually played before and they have upside. But I have been impressed with mateer and he is another Texas kid. We need to scour that place more.
Agreed... Would also be nice f you sign the right weigman/arnold like guy early enough to actually help in recruiting hs/portal.... i know D$ has commented about wanting a 2 year guy, understandable, but if they came in and had success year 1 would they stick around? If Ward somehow had another year of eligibilty I wouldnt expect him to stay........ (yes Texas qb recruiting needs more eyes, @Memnon was right again)
I think they would because they basically have no draft stock right now. Cam was way more productive and had a draftble grade
True, i guess if you got someone like a Mateer right now he is starting out with no draft grade that I know about at least...... don't need to go into the entire discussio on here for the 1000000x time... but we need someone imo.... current room isn't the answer
Titanshope: Weigman has been playing hurt, give this kid a chance to get healthy.
FSU went 2 high safeties all game and never adjusted even when we gashed them the whole 1st half. It was like Norvell was willing to get pounded into dust but not get embarrassingly blown out but that more or less happened anyway even though we settled for 3 FGs.
Might be just a little too crazy lol.... I already think you will have a hard enough time keeping talent in the QB room if you brought in people like that.... Mateer, for sure, he starts for hopefully 2 years & you get to develop a nickel, other talent.... I would still rather develop incoming hs recruits then have to be portal dire every year.... would just be nice to get to a point where we arent relying on incoming freshman to produce at QB (all positions too would be even better)
100% exactly what I meant when I posted. It's the reverse of seeing 7-9 men stacked in the box, which dictates pass. I'm with you thinking Norvell did this to keep the beat down minimized. Most coaches would've started creeping the safeties, then boom, long TD pass. They never did that so we kept handing it off.
Novell's strategy insured losing but minimized the point spread because so much time came off the clock. 40 rushes and 32 passes. We only had 8 possessions I think.
