QB? What QB?

[Doctor Bart]

Lots of folks saying “get a different QB from the portal” as if there is an unlimited supply. I just went down the Portal QB rankings on On3. Apart from Beau Pribula (and his 11/9 TD/INT ratio, the only QB’s with significant starting experience are Eget from SJSU, and Holstein from Pitt, and both of them got benched late in the year.
The cupboard is bare, all that’s left are freshmen and backups.
We gonna have to fatten GMac up!

Screw it, we ain’t paying G-Mac and Faizon Brandon for nothing!
Heup can earn his damn pay and get one of these two ready to play!
I’m so over this portal BS, we have a 4-5* on the roster and a 5* coming in, why the hell are we so desperate to find a starter in the portal? If we need depth then bring in someone experienced at holding down the damn bench and let’s roll with what we’ve got.
To hell with Leavett, Pribula, Kiffin and whoever else doesn’t want to be a part of this program!

Not much left in the portal. Husan Longstreet is the highest rated left. Might as well roll with what we have. GBO

Portal is still open. . .

 

[Lane Train 4]

Novosad from Oregon or Longstreet from USC?

 

[VolInDayton]

Hopefully a couple QBs are looking to profit off desperate teams and jump into the portal

 

[hardesty02]

Darian Mensah from Duke. What about this guy?

 

[Ryanvols24]

Novosad from Oregon or Longstreet from USC?

Get Longstreet have them all 3 compete, he is young but if he wins and is better than others why care if they transfer after this year... bc you will have him for years

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I swear some of you think you know what you are talking about when it comes to portal players

 

[VolInDayton]

Darian Mensah from Duke. What about this guy?

It was a 2 year 8 Mill deal. All of a sudden 4 mill isnt crazy value for him. I wonder if theres a penalty if he leaves

Don’t know but heck go see. He’s better than levitt and isn’t injured

 

[SpookyAction]

Darian Mensah from Duke. What about this guy?

He had a monster year at Duke. He has more than 1 yr eligibility left. We'd lose a QB or 2, and they'd be replaced by downgrades.

Says he would have been a top WB in this draft if he went this year I imagine he’s gone after next year either way. He was in top 6 or 7 this year in draft previews earlier

 

[Special Ed]

QB or not QB?
THAT is the question.

 

[Allvols98]

Threads going from you are next to who is left!?

 

[Vol865]

I'm not worried about GMac or Faizon being big enough. I'm worried if they're mentally capable of running the offense at a high level.

 

[Legion of Doom]

Yes and sign Longstreet. He is really good.

 

[AirForceVol74]

Merklinger is the best option. GBO

 

[Jackcrevol]

Merklinger is the best option. GBO

 

[Oldvoldad]

Merklinger is the best option. GBO

Made me laugh.

This^^^ we have already seen how good this offense is with average QB play. I think it is a bad idea to roll into next season with an unproven QB but maybe with an improved defense we can repeat 2024.

 

[volfan411]

Merklinger is the best option. GBO

This is sad but true. We may be forced to overpay him to come back just to have depth.

He can be 3rd string atleast

I like novosad 10.4 100m

Somebody is going to get paid to be 3rd string so why not Merk?!
