He going to miss the bowl game?
-
I stand corrected. It does happen. Edit: So I looked at this a little more. One never played FBS. He was on a team, but didn’t play. The other looked to have quite a bit of success at Arkansas. To scope this correctly, my original response was to one of the the worst turnover machines in FBS history could go to a lower level and “dominate”. I should have been more clear. A bad QB is not going to be a great QB because the go to a lower division.

Doesn’t happen much. What is more typical is a guy moving up and excelling. The running back from Missouri or that all purpose guy at Arizona State. A local example would be Toure. Don’t hear many going down and dominating stories. It’s an assumption that rarely pans out.

I suppose the likelyhood of success if solely looking at athletic ability (speed, strength, explosiveness, quickness) would be higher at a lower level. If you run faster or jump higher I guess it could be an 'easier' playing field. For example, there's a girl at Wesleyan that ran track and Nebraska. She transferred and is now a D3 national champion. Many of the characteristics that make a good QB are skill driven or even between the ears. Sims issues don't appear to be athletic related. Because you're in FCS it doesn't all the sudden mean evaluating a defense is easier. Eluding a rush doesn't become easier because you're playing South Dakota State.

How often does this happen? Specifically with QBs. They go down to FCS or D2 and just light the world on fire (dominate). You're still going to get pressured. Your receivers are still going to be covered. You probably still going to throw picks.

I hate contract extensions after 1 year, but I get it. -
This is going to turn, it kind of already has, into a rando transfer portal announcement thread.

It's more about pushing a narrative that either sells magazines/clicks/subscriptions than "reporting" the news. I'm not trying to get into politics, but that's one reason why many consider main stream media an unwatchable commercial. -

There's more than one way to do a screen. That one hasn't worked for sure.
-
The one for me is the routes the receivers run. You can't tell me there is nothing that can be done to get our athletes wide open. (Picks, Crossing, Screens....etc).

I think a lot of these coaches are going to need to be selective on what jobs they take. Unless they just want to get paid (which is still reasonable). If you don't have a strong NIL program compared to those in your conference, I have to believe you're going to be in trouble. I think NIL will turn the lower P5 jobs into a paycheck rather than a proving ground. You're simply not going to win. The proving grounds will be the lower paychecks in smaller conferences. It could also change how coaches are evaluated. -
3 more QB threads for Chumbawamba to start. They all seem pretty decent.

Down to 9 commits. I bet several of those 9 are scrambling. -

Maybe @ChubbaWubba could start a new thread.

There's two other threads talking about this news that broke yesterday afternoon. Thanks for making it 3. Welcome.

If Nebraska is really wanting Howard there’s no way Pitt has anything to offer from an NIL standpoint. Howard is from PA but that’s about it. I think being in the B1G is nearly equivalent. Also, I have to believe part of the Nebraska sell is we are a turnover machine away from 8 wins. Wanna be a star?
-
I wonder about this too. I remember a play where he step right into the rush. Then I watch that true freshman at Virginia. I don’t remember his name. But it’s like he’s been doing it for years. Im fine with Purdy, but we HAVE to bring in someone else for the QB room.
-
Sinnott is pretty good, but I don’t see any reason Fidone can’t get there. I think Fidone can be better. But to your point, Howard found TEs a lot.
-
What happened to Chief Borders? He was on all the accolades in fall camp and he hardly made the field at all. Given they played so many people on D, that can't be a good sign for him.
-
This is dead on. I think it'd help maybe secure one decent lineman too. Hopefully we got of this mess soon and we don't have to worry about the portal. Of course it'll always be there, but I think we are at the point where we "need" it. It'd be nice to get away from that.
