2026 Portal QBs

I'd never dispute that, and for all I know, they have a stud lined up. I don't doubt their ability to pull it off. I question the approach, and it makes me wonder about the narrative that's been pushed for decades.

"Win and they will come."

Tough to be too critical, but I hate this process.

NIL has thrown a wrench in a lot of the traditional logic.

The final day, the hour approaches. It's glorious isn't it?

Fair, and accurate.

Those two need at least a(nother) year of development to make a case for QB1.

Probably the wrong thread to say I like what we are doing at QB but I do at the moment

Nickel and Coleman both legit prospects that played zero games during recruitment and didn’t break the bank. Keep money for the portal for the big splash and hope one of these guys steps up. Tough to build a QB depth chart these days

But when you take two QBs in Emory and Judd, and bring in one kid with multiple years in Poffenbarger…that’s just gross, man

Correct. The biggest bag usually wins now, especially in the transfer portal.

What blows my mind is that, beyond money, third- and fourth‑year players should be looking for a program and staff that can elevate their draft stock. Take Damon Wilson, for example: he should be eager to be coached by Jason Taylor, in his home state, while getting paid well, especially after seeing how our D‑line dominated this year. But he’ll likely go wherever the biggest bag is.

This situation would never happen with any other program playing for the natty. Only us.

This program and fanbase have waited nearly a quarter century for this moment.

Two+ decades of mediocrity, pain, embarassment, and failure. We are FINALLY here. This fanbase should be relishing every moment of this.

Instead, we're in panic mode over this clown show situation we are in and can't even enjoy the moments leading up to this natty game. Only Miami.

That's the essence of being a fan

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”.

If your excitement over being in the Natty after all these years is overshadowed by this portal QB stuff, that’s on you.
