3. If Frank had won the NC in 1999, I don't think Peterson would have had the balls to fire him after a 10-3 2003 season. 

One correction.

Peterson would not have been hired to fire Solich after a 10-3 season.  I believe he was brought in with specific instructions to get rid of Solich.

Not bad for the only school not in a recruiting hot bed.  Maybe just become independant and play cream puffs and military schools line ND.

I watched the SMU vs Clemson game and I couldn’t help notice the big difference a mobile QB has on the game. Comparing SMU QB to Raiola, one can only wonder if Raiola will ever be successful in the BIG. He is slow and doesn’t have good pocket presence which makes it harder for him to get away from blitzes. He either has to learn to release the ball very quickly or may be learn when to run for the first down. Being able to escape the pressure opens up many options.

Dual-threat QBs are arguably a dying breed at this point. In 2016, there were five Big Ten QBs who averaged 22+ rushing yards per game. This year there's only one.

I think these days coaches really want QBs to be solid, reliable passers first and foremost. They don't want to deal with the kind of inconsistencies we've seen so much from 'dual-threat' guys.

As for Raiola's pocket presence, I'd say it's been a mixed bag so far. Sometimes he looks poised and aware, but sometimes he gets rattled. He's had some good scrambles like that 38 yarder against Ohio State. Hopefully he can continue to develop in that area.

Don't need a pure runner, but can't be a statue. The NFL no longer has many QBs that can't scramble for first downs when the situation is presented.

I think Cage takes it, but this one is good too:


General Booty is back in the portal too, but at this point I'm over him.

Yes could be but it does have Chirs Fort noted as the author.

Lol. So did all their other AI stories. I just asked ChatGPT to write a 10 point article about why Nebraska fans should be optimistic about Rhule as HC and it's almost the same 10 points as that article
