We start the year with Florida A&M and central Michigan.

If Dawson can’t have nickel or Coleman ready to perform at an average P4 level with 8.5 months of preparation and two games against scrubs then that’s on him.

We will be fine regardless

No, we don’t. We are opening the season against an unknown ACC opponent. And based on the trajectory of this program, it’s probably going to be against a name-brand program. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s FSU or VT.

Well regardless. 8 months to get a guy ready. Any team other than Notre dame we can have a game plan that puts our QB in a box with bubble wrap.
 
The fact that you mentioned "home grown player" is exactly my point. Hes being brought up because he grew up here. Where he played HS ball shouldn't matter. And, for the record, i wanted ward over howard. It was obvious on his tape what he was. Bailey is extremely raw and has upside but we wanted a finished product for next year not a project. Next year's roster will be ready to compete minus a few pieces. The goal was to reload not rebuild. This staff evaluated bailey and passed on him in high school and this portal period for a reason along with tons of other contenders needing a qb. You want to make an emotional decision thats on you. Fact is when bailey played top defenses (us and ND) he looks very different than when hes putting up empty stats vs ECU and campbell and bottom half of acc.
We are going to see. Let’s see who turns out better in the NFL. Add his name to Lamar Jackson, Bridgewater and Geno Smith. This staff did not evaluate Bailey and then choose Judd Anderson over him, they just chose Judd Anderson.

Bailey is not “extremely raw”, I reject that assertion. Bailey is a “finished product” on the college level of football. Bailey looks different against top competition because his team is littered with 2 and 3 star recruits and has a low blue chip %. This is all about who receives the benefit of doubt. Bailey without a shadow of doubt has earned prioritization and a shot at being considered a top tier college QB. Lesser Timmy’s receive that shot and jolt of confidence every single day and it ain’t considered to be an “emotional decision”.
 
I think yall are really underestimating how much the staff likes Emory. They'll absolutely try and get the best available options out there, but I also think theyre comfortable rolling with Emory should they swing and miss.
Yeah they may like him but the second half of Iowa State shows what they think of his ability.

When the dust settles, I want to know how many l QBs said no to us this week. Reading tea leaves sounds like (Young PItt Qb and Mateer?).

Then I want to know how many guys would sign this week but staff said no, waiting for a white whale

It’s a fair point that Dawson screwed up picking Judd over Bailey. But it’s also safe to say we would not be in the championship game this year with Bailey at the helm. Next year, maybe. But not this year. And if Bailey was in the roster at the end of last year when Beck was brought in, he would have portaled out. All things happen for a reason. Go get Bailey today and all is forgiven on that front.
