Dylan Raiola Enters Portal

With Fletcher, Pringle and Mallory (and hopefully Brown and/or Lyle), do we REALLY need a dual threat qb next year? Our rushing attack will likely be MUCH better next year. Run or throw quick accurate passes to Toney, Lofton, Moore, Upshaw, Parris, Wingo, Trader and whoever we get in the portal. With right qb, we should be able to move down the field with surgical precision.

This year we would have benefitted greatly from a dual threat. Next year I don’t know if we do. I think it would be better if they could manuever in the pocket and keep eyes downfield.

Unless you are 100% sure that the dude you have at qb is a bonafide passing stud, you get a qb with at the very least some decent wheels.

Look at the nfl. The days of a non athletic qb are pretty much over. Tom Brady is a unicorn.

In a business where people are getting paid millions to exploit your weakness you have to assemble a team that puts maximum amount of pressure on a defense.
If Beck had just a little more athletic ability this offense would be that much more difficult to deal with. And then think his lack of athleticism is going to hurt him more than his actual qb play.

Look how much pressure a dude like Tony places on defenders. If we had a qb that can give 10-15 yards when a play doesn’t develop as planned it changes things in our favor dramatically.

Nobody has mentioned Raiola so far as a connection to us.

Which is precisely what we want.

In general his recruitment has been VERY quite. Oregon and UL have been the two schools. UL just got a commitment.

So Oregon. But also knowing how secretive Mario is makes this worth keeping an eye on. Plus the natural Raiola connection of the grandpa and I believe there were Raiola rumors last year but he never entered the portal.

We wanted him out of HS too
 
I’m on board, talent is there…
1. Family stays the **** away form the day to day, which I’m sure Mario will make this known in advance.
2. Loose weight, get on board with S&C.
3. Loose the attitude, you’re not the *****, WE ARE. You are allowing you in to the family.
4. Stop dressing like a clown, your not PH.

Eh, seems like too many ifs. Can’t have character issues at a position like QB after we’ve done so much to change the culture.
 
He’s a good talent, I don’t think he’s head and shoulders above any of the other quality QBs in the portal. Also he needs some serious conditioning and getting his body right.
