Last week I believe their QB set a D1 record last week completing 42 straight passes - that's impressive, I've seen guys warming up on the sideline or pregame dropping balls.
Yeah we might want to get that guy out of the portal. He’s a monster. Problem is, he’s not the prototypical big bodied NFL style QB that Loggains likes.
I would much rather our portal haul be full of players balling out at lower levels looking to take the step up, rather than full of SEC benchwarmers who you have no idea if they can even play at this level. Give me at least a 60/40 ratio of players moving up to players moving down.

7, 1, 4 (before injury)... Just to name 3 on offense alone.
I could care less Power school, fellow Group school, FCS, DII....
If they can play, sign 'em up.

That's the point. You have no idea with P4 benchwarmers. We got lucky hitting on three of them. And we have missed on both our quarterbacks.

No matter which way we go, they are still unknowns how they will perform here. But with one group of players, you have meaningful D-1 collegiate stats to use as a reference point. To me that leads to painting a more accurate projection.

If we are a developmental program then why do folks constantly scout other rosters for next year? The QBs that we have need time to development their knowledge of the system.

On July 1, 2021 the NIL program was implemented, with each year that passes G5 programs have moved further away from developing players, other than developing them for other programs.

Our qb’s recruited from high school typically either move to other positions or move out altogether.
