this is probably a take people wont like, but cam got us to 11 - Mario and staff (or cam, idk) made a decision to lose the Iowa state game

a game manager qb would not have gotten us to even 9 wins this year due to the defense

a game manager qb Won't get us to 10 next year due to the schedule

after that going forward assuming we remain excellent a talent acquisition and our defense remains good, we may be able to get by but definitely need more than a game manager in '25, we're going to need someone that can win us games not someone that doesn't lose them

2026 has always been the target
we have what 10 seniors next year

I dont see the 25 schedule that hard next year
It's ND and UF in pre season

Same old ACC teams in regular season
No clemson on schedule
Smu Louisville and Syracuse

SMU made the playoffs, Syracuse beat us and won 10 games, and Louisville remains one of the best teams in the conference despite their record (they got miller moss so they'll be fine)

not sure what point you're trying to make

I'm not saying it's like florida's schedule last year, but saying it's not objectively "hard" is just dumb

Would Poles want to give the keys to a guy who doesn't have a QB/passing pedigree? Yes, Campbell was former OC at Toledo, but he didn't work with QBs.

Guess taking advantage of Pavia ruling

Again, Pavia's situation involved JuCos and NIL.

CJ Ogbonna played at SOUTHEAST MISSOURI STATE (which is NOT a JuCo) and Buffalo (also NOT a JuCo).

He played in FOUR seasons.

In his lightest year (2022), he played in FIVE games. Thus the question about needing a waiver like McCord does.

Not sure but Pavia just played his 5th season over all and won another year

Pavia played 2 seasons at NMSU and 1 at Vandy and 2 at JUCO. I'm not certain how the math worked - whether the NCAA gave him credit for the COVID year in '20 or counted 1 of his JUCO years as a redshirt year - that said he was a senior this year. Either way, he only played 3 seasons at the NCAA level, and his argument to the judge who issued the temporary injuction was that JUCO years shouldn't count against a player's NCAA eligibility clock. So, he is now eligible for this coming season, and conceviably could be eligible the following year if the NCAA makes the 5-year no redshirt rule change:

U.S. District Judge William L. Campbell issued the injunction following a hearing earlier in December during which Pavia's attorneys — led by Ryan Downton of The Texas Trial Group — argued his case. Campbell asked the NCAA's attorneys to provide additional information regarding whether the governing body is considering giving all players a fifth year of eligibility before the end of the 2024-25 school year; if so, the trial might not have been necessary to see through. Once Campbell received that information, he said, a decision would come down. (link)​
​
Ogbonna spent 1 year at JUCO, 2 at FCS SE Mizzou St & 2 at FBS Buffalo, playing in >4 games each year. The JUCO ruling doesn't help him since he didn't qualify for a redshirt in any of his four years at an NCAA school. He'd be eligible if the NCAA changed to the 5-year no redshirt rule, and applied it to everyone who was in college for the 24-25 year.

I think McCord is going to get his waiver on appeal, and the NCAA will apply the new 5-year eligibility clock to everyone who was in school this year. Ogbonna would definitely have 1 more year then, and so would QBs who can actually throw like Seth Henigan.
