QBS in the Portal as of 11/28

[hurricaneman]

This year is different, so I get the point. And I’d rather have one of the aforementioned guys then pretend Ewers is realistic.

But half this fanbase wanted us to move on with Maiava after Ward announced for the NFL.

Patience is a virtue.

Not in college football in this day and age.

You can't continue to get QB's in January and hope to attract offensive talent. You're bringing in 1 year rentals past high school signing day and past the portal window. So high school recruits won't give a s*** about a guy they'll never play with and portal guys will be gone.

You can't fire DCs in January, hire a new one two months later, and expect to attract defensive talent. You're giving yourself a few months to establish relationships with high school players before they're locked in and forget portal players.

He's doing this s*** so backwards, and got away with it once so he probably thinks he's right.

This won't age well. When he throws 65 yards on a rope and runs 4.4 at the combine ggs. He isn't worse than Richardson.

Some GM/HC sees a mid QB with incredible athleticism and says, "I can fix him". Happens almost every year.

Go get Sluka !!!

Some are correct, but typically at the top of the draft are the inept organizations. If he were to land in a situation like Lamar with stability I'd believe in his chances. If the Rams or 49ers landed him he'd have a **** of a chance at success.

Anything ground breaking??

Cam shouldn’t have played at all if this is the treatment he’s getting.

The cautionary tale is “make the freaking playoff and you don’t have to worry about who suits up in meaningless games, because you won’t have any meaningless games”.

He looked **** good in the bowl game and it’s 3am at closing time:

 

[Bunker Mentality]

Cam ran the offense as good as you will see it, we were literally the #1 offense all year bro

The check down **** is everyone nitpicking because we needed him to be perfect. He was on schedule way more than he wasn’t

This sounds exactly like when people said jaden haris and meesh will play within the defense more than kam and james so it will be better. Don’t trick yall selves again to believing anything

Im tellin yall the offense will not be near as good with any qb. Seems like yall still dont fully realize how much cam covered up on offense and what he allowed you to do.

Imagine having a Heisman finalist, best qb best passing game in the country by far and saying hey i want to see what happens when the offense is when we hit routine plays lmao. Wtf are we doing here, and we doing that for ewers??? Lmao ok yall will learn the hard way once again

No doubt Cam is a great player and his ability masked a lot of deficiencies, but nothing in your response explains why Ewers couldn't be productive in the offense.

We can agree to disagree but, inshallah, I hope we get to find out.

Yea. This is the last decent chick that’s not 260 lbs I’m going home with her because what I have waiting for me named emery is like a 3 out of 10.

 

[Odysseus]

Guys…milroe is not getting drafted in the first round. The smart move for him would be returning to college for another year with deboer

He would make him some serious money in this Dawson offense

People who aren't Miami fans care so much about this and Miami fans are just happy we got to see him play one more time.

It's so dumb.

 

[jrock2332]

It’s like buying a lottery ticket. Likely will never see the field, but there are undervalued QBs that hit down the road. Could argue Cam as an example. Taking a flier is fine, but you better have legit QBs in system or money for the portal

We need a QB capable of throwing at least 30 TDS in a season with a low int percentage. I think we could get better at wrs. I'm not sure we can get better at te. Not sure we can get better at rb but I think it can be a stalemate compare to this year. I think we can get better on the interior online. We have a TON of questions on defense. I can't see guidry survives what we saw. Also by overhauling the defense it might take some time for the guys to get accommodate to a new scheme and personnel. It isn't look promising at the moment but it's a while until you the spring and summer. But I must say Mario reminds of John calipari. Can he get NFL talent yes. Can he outcoach his opponent or showcase good coaching when the team needs it no. The reason Mario and calipari haven't won more is because they are average to above average coaches.

 

[Odysseus]

F it get me Drones, Milroe, Ewers, or Leavitt

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Milroe is my guy to target (the 5th one this window ).

Pretty sure Bama would like for him to look elsewhere, and he probably would like a new start as well.

Won't come cheap, and we'd probably have to compete with ND and maybe even USC, but pair him with Martinez and our line and you won't have much drop off in offense. We need a threat to run as our signal caller. We won't have much of a intermediate-pass game, but the deep ball would go crazy.

It's still all about the defense with this team.

We lost every game this season by one possession. We just need to be a smidgen better to get to the ACCCG.

 

[Tony4Canes]

Blah

 

[Derrick Griffin]

F it get me Drones, Milroe, Ewers, or Leavitt

Too bad NONE of them are currently “on” the market. Such an uneasy feeling AGAIN.

 

[Jonnyblaze]

For the legit people on this board with actual knowledge of what’s happening with the team, is there a still a mystery QB in play that has not come to light? That seemed to be the sentiment a couple days ago.

 

[hurricaneman]

I'd be fully on board with Milroe. Just bomb it down the field and pound it with the running game.

You guys know better than I do but if you missed on Mateer it seems like Milroe is an alternative option that's very similar.

Milroe's sophomore numbers vs Mateer:

Milroe 2023
66%
2,800 yards
10.0 yards/att
23 TD
6 INT
531 rushing yards
12 rushing TD

Mateer 2024
65%
3,100 yards
9.0 yards/att
29 TD
7 INT
826 rushing yards
15 rushing TD

And that's against far better competition. I know it's not gonna happen but Damien Martinez, Milroe, Lofton, and a speedster on the outside, with this o-line, would be awesome to watch.
