QB Kyle McCord -> Syracuse

[GSG]

Well, I hate to give him props, but Zach Smith sorta predicted this. He doesn't want to compete with anyone. He just wants a guaranteed starting job.

 

[SouthLincoln Husker]

He would be the starter from day one here. DR is going to redshirt, and no one currently on the roster can compete with McCord. I'm guessing McCord doesn't want to rush a decision.

Dylan is wanting to play early!

Or Raiola left UGA because of money, found that money at UNL, and McCord 's bag got lighter?

Rhule's quotes on the McAfee Show were a little too specific regarding freshman commiting with NIL promises. It seems this is the most likely scenario, IMO.

I wonder what happened??? Everything was going so well.

That's why most of these 1 year guys transfer.

In the case of McCord, he's done his time sitting behind others. It's his time to play.

Yup, he wanted guarantee!

Can't fault him.  Who would want to sit their last year in college especially if it's his goal is to play in the NFL and he knows his ability is good enough?

Does not want to compete. Not the character we want.

He shouldn't have to compete.  He is a starter and shouldn't have to sit his last year in college.  Any school that he chooses to play at should guarantee him the starting role.  Most schools that bring in transfer qb's guarantee them that role obviously Nebraska is didn't and has to be loyal to the kids they have on their roster or else we has fans lose our s***t.  All I know is McCord isn't a scrub qb.

Rhule and Co learned with Sims not to guarantee a starting spot.

What they should have looked at were his stats. That look on his face when that reporter told him Sims had led the country in turnovers is forever ingrained in my memory.

Sims sucked at Georgia Tech and got benched there while committing turnovers.  Your talking about a former starter from a 11-1 team.  Two totally different style of qb's.  You get what you pay for.

Well, they are also learning from Sims and McCord and others that transfer QBs aren't going to come to your school without a guarantee. QBs aren't transferring to compete - they are transferring to play.

Coaches will probably say they plan to have him start but everybody still has to compete.

I think the first phone call or meeting was we like you to come here and be the starter but it all changed once Dylan came back in the picture.
