Miami QB Tyler Van Dyke​

To say Miami fans are excited about 2022 would be like saying Ed Reed played hard. It's true -- just a massive understatement. And yes, new AD Dan Radakovich and new head coach Mario Cristobal are big reasons for all that enthusiasm in Coral Gables, but perhaps the biggest piece to the puzzle is Van Dyke, who came on as a replacement for D'Eriq King in September and quickly blossomed into one of the country's most prolific passers. Van Dyke ended the season by throwing for 300 yards and three touchdowns in six straight games, winning five of them.

We need to recruit TVD style QB. Get back to the roots of the past. No more short QB but pocket passers. Let's concentrate on the west coast.

There are fewer and fewer "Pocket" QBs on the market, because people want QBs that can stretch the field with both their feet and arm. Even TVD is more of a dual threat than the old Steve Walsh, Gino T types, who couldn't run if their lives depended on it.

With the right OC he’s the #1 overall pick next year

I want high IQ QBs with a good enough arm to get the job done. WAY too much emphasis has been put on mobility. Unless you're Brad Kaaya, or in a wheel chair, the odds are you can move just enough to avoid some pressure or pick up 5-6 yards on a busted play. IQ, arm, and ability to see the field. Those are my three keys for a QB.

You Miami's career leader in passing yards?

Passing yards is one thing, getting out of the way of a bus is another. His immobility hurt him, literally.

 

[cowboycane]

Five ACC quarterbacks on there and none of them plays for FSU, never gets old.

 

[insaneinthecane]

TVD has being a scratch golfer on his resume as well.

Now his name is being dropped into the 2022 Heisman conversation.

Dudes future is bright!

We Back!!!

SCHWING!!!!

They didn't have to run. The OL and Receivers were bad MF's

There you have it gentlemen! The phenomenon starts today after this article circulates. If I could buy stock in any player on the team, it would be a healthy Tyler Van Dimes $.

 

[JHallCanes]

If he continues to ball out without his top 2 WRs from last year (if Rambo leaves) and a new OC, then that will make a huge statement

Wish dudes just stop it with this short quarterback ****! This fixation. . .

Miami as a program benefited greatly by having King as a QB, both on and off the field until this very day. IMO

So you can't be athletic AND intelligent? King's issue wasn't that he lacked football IQ or arm talent, it was that he was poorly utilized and once he got hurt just wasn't the same.

I don’t think OP was insinuating that. I believe he just prioritize QB’s who have it between the ears. I think we all do.

Interestingly enough, TVD is not from the west coast.

FTR rambo already announced he's leaving

 

[Tad Footeball]

The opportunity will certainly be there for TVD. Even more eyes on us than normal due to a new coach, an early YUGE stage at A&M and then what will probably be a nationally televised game (even if they're still "down") at Clemson.

 

[Boarcane]

I truly believe he’ll have more options next season and be in a better position to succeed. He’ll have Don back and Rooster will be utilized more in the passing game. He’s going to thrive
