Luke Nickel last night

[TrumpyCane]

Trumpycane knows it was a small sample size but he looked competent

Made 2 pretty good throws moving and showed some zip

INT was just a good play by the Stanford guy, honestly like he dropped it but it what it is

Trumpycane knows it’s a low bar but he looked way better than Emory ever did

 

[Silentobserver]

More blowouts upcoming will help Luke develop with more live reps.

Need those game reps to truly evaluate what we got there.

Glad Mario allowed Dawson to keep calling the offense with the backups in

 

[DisgruntledSebastianIbis]

With the star/household name QBs we've had for 3 straight years going with Nickel next year would seem uninspiring

Agree. Hope he gets most of the 2nd half on Thursday. And gets lots of 4th quarters this season.

 

[Mike Thot]

I wish you all the best but there's no way that he's going to satisfy after what we've been seeing. Those are the cold hard facts

 

[Hufftwoseven]

I agree. Have not been that impressed with a Miami back up QB in idk how long. The play that he drifted right immediately because Stanford brought the heat and threw with anticipation to a Wingo comeback was awesome to see. I wonder if the Mario comments about not getting a portal QB is because Luke has been promising

 

[Memnon]

Too small of a sample size to draw much of a conclusion on his projected status for next year.

But he can throw, isn't panicky under pressure & has a nice arm.

I'm still unconvinced he'll be the starter next year. I would wager we hit the Portal again for best QB available.

Malik Washington, Austin Simmons, Brad Jackson & Drake Lindsay will all be viable options.

 

[Dwinstitles]

He won’t ever be our qb 1

I am not trying to be that guy, but, yeah, I don't see it either but hey, we'll see.

100% but also much more comfortable with him as a backup compared to an Emory.

There’s no way with where this program is heading trajectory wise we are rolling the dice with a Luke nickel level prospect. If/when the portal qb experiment ends it’s going to be an unbelievable HS prospect we are handing the keys too that truly wows in his game appearances or is lighting it up behind the scenes like Jamies was behind EJ Manuel

 

[Dwinstitles]

I feel like we operating at a different clip as a program. And a qb like him will never be a qb 1 here unless there is an injury. We looking for elite qualities now, it’s like bama during their era where they always had an elite qb or they got one.

Facts

I’m so glad we got to listen in to the command center for a clear as day touch on a punt but got nothing on that ball clearly hitting the ground on the “INT”. Thanks ACC.

 

[QuattroCane]

The standard for QB play has been so high and is now through the roof, I don't envy anyone coming in for clean-up duty.

 

[The U is back to work]

With the star/household name QBs we've had for 3 straight years going with Nickel next year would seem uninspiring

We won’t be doing it. Mario is going to get a $5m A+ transfer. Refuse to believe it.

 

[section9]

Luke needs to play most of the next game, if at all possible. He needs to figure out defensive stunts, etc., in a live game. If we can send him in right after the second half kick, that would be best. Kid needs time and game snaps to work on his timing and accuracy.

I bet by next year Nickel or Coleman could win a lot of games for us as a starter

But we are hunting championships. OSU hitched their hopes to Sayin and he folded against us because he’s not a playmaker. We’ve set the bar too high for Nickel to be the guy

 

[Hold My Beer]

Trumpycane knows it’s a low bar but he looked way better than Emory ever did

When Emory comes off the bench and beats Bama today y'all gonna quit talking about my North Florida homeboy

 

[canester95]

Seeing mop up duty late 3rd Quarter reminds me of back in the day. Seldom did I ever see QB1 play a full game. Of course big games they did but a lot games we had the slow start then poured it on 2nd/3rd and rested the starters for the 4th. That was fun. Now add in the spark of getting a quick start…me excite.

 

[dycane]

You would’ve said that about Mensah after his first real game experience. You have no idea whether or not this guy has “it.” What’s clear is he’s a gunslinger.
