Sellers is a much better passing QB than that stinking pile of garbage Leavitt. Dude is like a poor mans Tim Tebow. Can't throw worth crap. Wildly inaccurate and they don't ask him to do much.

Sellers has a stronger arm, but his decision-making and accuracy leave a lot to be desired. Leavitt reminds me of Riley Leonard. I would pass on both in search of a more accomplished passer.

Bailey behind our line would be tremendous. Basically Beck but with a bigger arm and when it's not there he can just take off. But he can sit in a pocket and hit open receivers.

With a kid like Sellers, the ceiling is probably higher but you have to change your entire offense to tailor it to his skills. Do we have the personnel to run what we need to run with Sellers? One thing I'll say is assuming Dawson is still here, he did have Clayton Tune running all over the place his last year at Houston.

But I think Bailey is a much more natural progression for what this offense wants to do. Big arm, very accurate, and wants to sit in the pocket and throw the ball first and foremost.

We already run a heavy RPO offense...just can't tell because Beck hardly ever pulls it. Sellers is killing teams if they crash as hard as they do against Beck...but we saw last year with Cam, that teams simply WON'T crash that hard (after watching Cam embarrass UF's defense and walk to the sideline...Sellers will improve our run game overall, but will he be another Mike Norvell/FSU QB when it comes to passing the ball? Sellers is someone I can see excelling at FSU if they keep Norvell.

Why in the world would Sellers even think about FSU? Since Travis in 2023, FSU has been a complete graveyard for quarterbacks. I think they're talking about Castellanos coming back next year anyway.

Why do we even recruit QBs, if we can't develop them, and all we are going to do is dip into the portal.

Yes. We need a polished downfield passing QB to take advantage of our power running scheme and make teams pay for putting DB's in the box. Leavitt is a terrible choice, Sellers is slightly better.

Of the two that we’ve been publicly linked to by sources Leavitt and Sellers, I think we’ll be pretty much lock for 9-3 floor with them next year baring injuries

We’ve been recruiting mostly development/projects that’s why, we haven’t spent big $ on HS QB & ironically the best Qb we’ve recruited out of HS so far under Mario happens to also be our best WR 😂..Dereon Coleman looks like the real deal tho, first HS QB I’ve been excited about in a while.

Regardless of where he’s from he’ll be around 70 percent completion percentage , 3000 + yards and 20 + TD.. I think some people here overrate hometown guys and some devalue them just to be contrarian. If Bailey was from say Pa and putting up these numbers at NCSU in his second year most would be on board. That said I’m not sky high on the guy but he’s better than Beck especially when he’s 3 years younger carrying more of the load.

There’s ppl here who still think Beck is elite & Mario/Dawson are holding him back, they say any QB would look bad under this regime even Mendoza….

I never got the Beck excitement . He is what he is. A pretty good starter that’s great or famine . When he’s hot he can be elite , when he’s off he’s dumpster juice. That’s what he’s always been. Hopefully we can ride the good out through the playoff.
