Sick of these QB's that supposedly are winners wherweas both Jarren and N'Kosi have failed. Tate will be here for a few more years, won every game in his high school career and is used to winning. These talented losers we are starting just don't have the fire it takes to win every week. Jarren has a high completion percentage, can make all the short passes but loses. N'Kosi had his shot last year and has the deep ball but with this OL doesn't have time. Martell suits this offensive line better then both of them. Martell is a team player, as these shenanigans with picking a QB went on he agreed to move but the kid is a winner, has several years here and just might get us on the right track. To many "prima donnas" look great, great forn, great skills, that is until the bright lights come on and then there are those who WANT the pressure and I believe Tate might be that guy. What have we got to lose? Don't forget N'Kosi had his chance last year, Jarren threatened to leave, and yes...Tate is a portal guy but he deserves a shot now that our season is almost over. All we can hope for is 3 more wins and a bowl game. I am sick of losing and sick of players who fold under pressure. Historically when the game is on the line, Hurricanes perform their best. I've been involved with teams where practice players folded in games and lousy practice players lite up when the lights came on. Bernie was the most awkward QB we ever had but he loved pressure. Steve Walsh could not throw deep and was too short but won when he had to perform. Coaches never know which players will perform under pressure until they enter a real game. Has anyone seen Jarren or N'Kosi get in anyone's face? Or even talked to their team on the sidelines? I believe Tate Martell has the fire in his belly and could win for us. Like I said, what do we have to lose, find out before next year because we know what we have at QB now..garbage.

Bruh don’t think we are allowed to mention Martell or MaToken on here. It might upset some high school coaches that haven’t gotten over Shannon being fired yet.

You've got it, corch. That's the spirit.
 
I agree completely. There's no reason not to start Tate. People can complain about field goals but with UNC, GT, and VT field goals shouldn't even be coming into play. The offense is completely lacking electricity and both Jarren and Perry play to not lose and aren't leaders. If the seasons already lost why not try him out?
