Now. Yesterday. Pronto.

Applewhite won the Peach Bowl with Greg Ward, Jr as his QB. Hurts would be a perfect fit to his system and would instantly upgrade Miami's offense. And I don't believe it'd affect Williams much, he'd still be able to compete and Hurts only has a year. If it scares off Perry or Weldon, so be it.

Bring him in.

That's silly. We could be looking at 1-2 scholarship QB's if Perry and Weldon flake again this summer. We most definitely need a grad transfer and I would say a freshman in this class. If someone leaves because they don't want to compete for the job so be it.

LMAOOOOOOOOO this dude watched Malik Rosier and N'Kosi Perry for the last 26 games and said "hard pass" on a kid who can come in cold off the bench and beat UGA and win a National Championship game.

I'm done for the day.

For the ground and pound offense Bama ran before Tua he’s perfect. But he is so limited passing I think he’d only be a detriment to our offensive development.

Think Jarren, sight unseen of course, will be bette suited for what MA wants to run here.
 
It depends what Applewhite wants to run.

Hurts is limited in certain aspects but could obviously fit in some offenses.

Not banking anything on a kid that just about transferred. That saga isn’t over yet.

2016 as a true freshman: 62.8% completion percentage, 7.3 YPA
2017: 60.6% completion percentage, 8.2 YPA
2018: 72.9% completion percentage, 10.9 YPA

Miami's QBs completed 51.1% of their passes this year at 6.1 YPA, and 53.3% of their passes last year at 7.4 YPA

You, and I can't stress this enough, have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

He was also 13-31 for 131 in the championship game and was benched in favor of Tua at halff time.

The guy can’t throw the ball down field at all against a good defense.

If we’re going to have a stop gap QB let’s get one who can run the offense we want to run.

Stop LYAOOO long enough to see we should be looking for something that fits our new passing style.

It doesn't matter what he wants to run. You know what good coaches do? They adapt their coaching to their player's talents. It's coaching 101. Look at the Baltimore Ravens, and countless other examples. You coach to what your kids do well.

The bottom line is Hurts is MILES better than anyone else you have here. Who cares what Applewhite wants to do? You know what Manny wants to do? He wants to win. And this kid wins. Bring him in and tailor your offense to his skills, which, guess what? It's EXACTLY what Applewhite did with Greg Ward at Houston.

That 2017 offense was him game managing overwhelming talent by using a dink and dunk passing attack mixed with him running the ball.

The 2018 stats were mop up duty. Look at how many passes he threw.

If you think there's a QB on Miami's roster who is a better college football player than Jalen Hurts, please stop posting on this thread. It's not for you.

I think you’re grossly overestimating what hurts will do behind this offensive line instead of Bama’s monsters.

I also think Williams possesses the skill set to run an offense better than he can.

The difference is I don’t KNOW like you do. Because you don’t.
