But that's absolutely not at all what I said bro. I wasn't using QB as an excuse I was just stating a fact. If Mario and staff don't get themselves a starter in the portal then we are not winning 10 games because Mario isn't good enough as a coach. I'm not saying that they should be excused if they don't get a QB capable of leading us to 10+ wins. That is squarely on his shoulders. This is something I posted about last week. It was a thread called the problems we and Mario face going forward. Basically I said that if we can't attract QBs it's because Mario failed to hire an OC/QB coach that would be attractive to good QBs. As it is right now, what reason does a sought after QB have for coming here and putting his career in the hands of this staff? I can't think of anything. Again I've posted about this repeatedly. This is all on Mario. I've been crystal clear about that.The reason y I can’t give that an excuse b/c the entire QB room is their evaluation now.
TVD was inherited & was completed chitted on by the fan base “all of sudden.” OK, he’s gone now; we had a whole 2024 class to obtain a top tier HS QB, but we were told Judd is the guy and he has elite traits that Mario is looking for. Cool.
Emory was said to have been an Elite 11 super star, again a hand picked guy from 2023. Cool.
Now, the staff loves the upside of FCS yardage leader Reese Poffenbarger. Another Eval.
Jacurri Brown, recruited by Manny, kept by Mario & only coached by Mario.
We’ve been told we’re dealing w/ an elite evaluator, cool. This whole QB room is on him & the staff. So if this season sucks based upon QB play, that’s strictly on him. Again, no excuses bro. I’m sorry.
