Rumor Jake Garcia to Nebraska

[Gables Cane]

If he is transferring because of what Mario said about TVD, then that's some weak sauce.

He is the exact opposite of the culture Mario is trying to build. Mario wants competition, which makes us better. If Jake doesn't want to compete, then bye (and that's coming from somebody who was in the Jake > TVD camp).

The word early this week was that Nebraska was targeting Spencer Rattler..

Maybe he's just trying to leverage this to get a bigger NIL contract

TVD is three years removed after next season, would be dumb IMO. Take a seat for a year and win a Natty young man.

I said he would flame out let's see

Could be one of those made up rumors that turns out to be true.

People forget that Jake's dad went to and played at Nebraska.

Yeah I read that somewhere, and I think He played QB, too...

You have not followed Gracias career. He has a lot of talent, but he doesn’t unpack his bags. Can’t have your QBs/team leaders not all the way in.

I like Garcia a lot, but I’ve been a TVD guy from jumpstreet (even before he exploded this season) and Garcia’s penchant for leaving was one reason why (but I also thought / think TVD had better tools)

That is pretty overblown when you look at his transfers. His last three schools were his CA HS, he then transfers to HS in GA since CA did not have a season due to covid. He was then ruled ineligible and transferred to another HS in GA where he won a ring. Let’s not do this until we see him transfer.

Hopefully he is not that dumb

I agree there are a lot better QB whisperers out there

Before coloring him gone see his name in portal first. Not saying this will or will happen

 

[Goulds Cane]

Isn't Jake a Nebraska legacy? If he feels like he doesn't have a fair shot a playing time the rumors make sense

Go after Richt's nephews if he leaves? https://www.espn.com/college-footba...quarterback-max-johnson-enter-transfer-portal

I stop trying to understand kids . This thing is about to blow up , hopefully someone can point that out to him.

I have no doubt that Nebraska's interested and sees an opening. But that's all that's been said.

 

[Kjdcanefan]

Cali>Florida>Nebraska??

Georgia is in there too. Kid is using his football talents to tour America.

next level stupid if true...

Seriously. While I am all for competition when a transfer is involved, when your starting QB is coming back and did things we haven't seen done here, ever, it's his job. You fight for #2 and know your are next man up. There isn't a thing wrong with being #2 to a future first round draft pick. On the contrary, you get to sit and learn behind one of the best in the country.

If he transfers it could be because he knows that he won't look as good as TVD when his time comes and doesn't want those comparisons. Not saying he's that kind of guy, but some are.

He did, the late 70s

Always 1 twisted ankle or broken hand away from it being your job. Of all people he should know that.
