Decommit QBU.
Seeing Michael Penix Jr. balling out for Indiana and also being a darkhorse Heisman QB this year got me thinking of other QB's that went on to success at other college programs AFTER being committed to UT or on the roster at some point. Here's my list, I'm sure there's more. I just seems if you commit to UT as a QB then either recommit elsewhere, get "over recruited" or transfer, the odds of you doing well at your next stop is very good.
Tajh Boyd: UT Commit --> UT Decommit --> Signs with Clemson (Lane Kiffin didn't want)
Bryce Petty: UT Commit --> UT Decommit --> Signs with Baylor (not good enough)
Michael Penix Jr.: UT Commit --> UT Decommit --> Signs with Indiana (sent packing)
Adrian Martinez: UT Commit --> UT Decommit --> Signs with Nebraska (decomitted)
Nathan Peterman: UT Player --> UT Transfer --> Sign with Pitt (looking for PT)
Note worthy:
Chris Leak was all but going to Tennessee before CJ stunk t up in his first start against UGA before getting benched after 1 series.
Frickin Trevor Lawrence's picture in vol gear at Neyland then going on the wear #16. fml
Based on this track record... JG might actually be decent at Washington State... Same could be said for JT. Shrout at Colorado.
