Agreed, imo it comes down to him and BaileyOregon and SC both have their youngin’s that they’ve invested in with Moore and Longstreet. The Cal kid will be the hottest ticket item if he continues his play and we will have a proven track record with portal QBs. I’ll be tuned in to their game this weekend vs Minnesota.
They don’t play us, GT, FSU or Clemson. Kid has an opportunity to make some real $$ in 4 months although I’m sure Cal will empty their vault to keep him.
Would be perfect… 2 years left of eligibility and allows Coleman and Nickels enough time to separate themselves for their eventual successionCJ Bailey.
End thread.
Second this
Interesting Debate on the pod today regarding potential QB transfer options (Lagway vs. Bailey):
Ahmmon- "If I had to take one, I'm gonna be honest. I'm gonna go with Lagway. He has that natural just arm talent that you can't really like coach. It's just the different techniques and just things within the game"
"If he was in Shannon Dawson offense, which he probably won't be here next year, but if he were in the Shannon Dawson offense, you know, slot friendlyhe can get the ball out quick. Guy's getting open, really good run game, o line that's gonna give him time where he don't have to run around and be Cam Newton essentially"
"CJ Bailey, I do think he's going to be a really good quarterback as well."
Pete - "I'm taking Lagway"
D$- "I'll say this, I think Bailey is on the upswing. As he gains the weight theres more velocity, he looks faster and stronger"
"Sometimes these tall guys develop a bit later, CJ is someone who's going up, so by the end of the year this debate could be more interesting"
Two of these teams have won or played in a National Championship in the past four years and have earned the right to test their guy….Why are our young QB’s too young to play but young QB’s are not too young to play at:
Michigan
Florida
Notre Dame
Just to name 3 programs off the top of my head that will start 1st or 2nd year QB’s.. I hope our coaches don’t live in their fears as so many of you seem to.
We could just promote Mirabel, run duo every play, and as @JHallCanes mentioned move Lofton to his natural position (let's be real all 22 positions are his natural position, so I'll amend natural for best) QBInteresting thoughts on dawson. I think everybody is assuming he'll be gone if we end up with a great offense again and Beck goes 1st round.
If that happens, I think we'll have a hard time getting a high quality transfer. Mario is slow to hire and I'm not sure how we convince a high end QB with a lot of options to come here if he doesn't know who his OC/QB coach will be.
I actually have a direct line to this one, lol.
