2026 Portal QBs

I'll approach this now with the following notion:

We won't find out till next week.
I don't expect anything to happen today but since whoever it is needs to be enrolled by the day after the championship game I'm pretty sure we will here before that or at least I would hope since there is no way you go into next year with Emory as the QB1

It was likely negligence. Imagine if Ward or Beck didn't have a change of heart the last two cycles. They were far from sure things to return and could have gone the other way. We would have been in the same exact position as we are today.

We played with fire. It finally burned us. Time to take a new approach going forward.
High stakes poker worked 2 out of 3 times. We got the best QB play we have had in 2+ decades the last 2 seasons. We are playing for the natty on Monday. We'll know for certain what the failsafe option is in a week or so. Even if Emory is that "failsafe" option, I still think the risks Coach took over the last 3 cycles were worth it.

(I understand technically people can just unenroll and then enroll at a new school but that's not how it's done 99.9% of the time)

We would likely get some clarity before the end of this week since the transfer portal closes on Friday.
 
Ty Pennington North Arizona
2025 - 90.1 Overall grade, 90.2 pass grade
2024 - 88.7 Overall Grade, 84.1 Pass Grade
32 TD : 6 INTs in his career. 6.6 BTT% : 2.3 TWP%

Bring someone like this dude in to compete with Nickel and Coleman at the very minimum.



Noah Fifita is probably like one of the easier pulls.

**** getting Colandrea would be fine even

Honestly though if I'm Mario I'm trying to get Chambliss right now. Tell him they're trying to move on to Knight. And we will fight with you for the eligibility too ...

I'd go an sign Amari Odom and pay Syracuse his buyout. There's Nick Miniucci... Both those guys can come in and compete with Nickel/Coleman.
Caden Veltkamp is still at FAU I think, and would at least be solid competition with great build.

Jc French can probably still be gotten.
I will tell you what
You sure do your homework!!!!
I’m in on that idea
If we are going w non power four school QBs
Bring in two!!!

I meant the deadline to enroll in classes is 1/21 at Miami so that is a hard deadline not related to the portal at all. Anyone not enrolled at Miami by then cannot participate in spring practice.

So, you're saying there's a chance?
 
You posted this as if people want to rebuild.
No, I posted it for ppl who think a rebuild year as a viable strategy in college. Its not.

I keep hearing well just start Nickel for the future. Save money for the following year, etc.

NO! That is not a strategy. You spend as much money as possible and build the best team you can. Whether thats overpaying for a qb like Dampier or Fifita or whoever else. You dont just say oh well to next season, its not beneficial long term.

Gotcha
 
Just keep tampering until someone bites is all.

Maintain 0 respect for other schools/intentions.

Emory won’t be the starter. No way. It will be someone else. Is Luke looking ok?
Luke was only a freshman when everybody saw him....I don't think anyone really knows for sure right now....it's all pure speculation....I think everybody needs to enjoy this championship ride and let things play out....
