TVD non committal for bowl game and 2024

Son of a legend and a 5th year senior. Surely this guy can run the offense.
 
As much as TVD has failed at this program this year, it's still in the best interest of the University of Miami football team to have him here at spring to compete. The problem is that Mario didn't have a suitable replacement ready to challenge/push him and TVD never felt like losing the starting job was a legitimate threat.

That's 100% on Mario and he has absolutely fumbled the QB situation (again).

Now think about the spring. What are we banking on right now so we can have a legitimate QB competition in the spring?
"Emory will be ready"
"We'll get a starter from the portal."

Where have we heard those 2 things before?

If neither happen, like we should all expect, then we'll have Judd Anderson vs walk on QBs for the spring (maybe that's why we recently offered Bailey).

Disaster. Absolutely negligent roster mismanagement.

There was an easy way to keep both TVD AND Jacurri here for the spring as well as bringing in a viable starter from the portal.
 
Was Jayden George a walk on at Bama?
Looks like it.

He's Jeff George's son.

Jeff George wanted to come to Miami, but JJ signed Craig Erickson and that scared George off.

But now, Jeff has a chance to vicariously live the Miami QB dream through his son.

Jayden George is gonna lead Miami to a bowl win. It's gonna be epic. They'll make movies about this.

This is 2009 bad, when we had Jacory Harris and a defensive back at QB.
2010 was bad. Harris got nailed against Virginia, Spencer Whipple came in and sucked beyond belief, and they had to burn Morris redshirt. Burning Morris redshirt set off a chain of events. Morris would start as a redshirt senior in 2014 and Kaaya would have took over as a redshirt freshman in 2015.
 
I honestly would decline the bowl invitation if we’re going to get beat down like that with a walk-on. Chances are guys like LT, James and Kam sit out too, in order to protect their stock. Our Bowl game won’t mean anything. If we don’t have TVD and Jacurri…it’s wildcat, or worse.

I know some will think it’s a beta mentality to sit it out, but I don’t see how getting the doors blown off us would help in recruiting. God forbid we lose to BC, 6-7 would look infinitely worse. Back-to-back losing seasons, especially a 2023 one where you lose five straight (or if you beat BC, lose four of five) is literally no better than Billy Napier.
Play the young guys. All of them. Scrimmage.
