Would Yall Take Him as QB1 for 2026?

[RozayCane]

Played at Miami NW

 

[TemplarCane]

5’11 180?

He is from Miami, so I’m sure there are a lot of posters on the board familiar with his high school career.

No...and ive known him since he was 10 or 11.

Hes a perfect fit for their offensive scheme and Pitts offense.

Last time i saw Tyger i almost asked him if he was still playing....he's 5'10 175 tops.

Love the kid and the numbers he is putting up there at WCU.

 

[RozayCane]

I say bring him in along with another QB and let the whole room duke it out

[SinisterCane]

Would love a place like FIU to get him. Like what that coach is doing over there.

the crazy part is...they got Lytghts Out Jenkins from Miami Central who he usre to battle against so they wont be a team he would go to.

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

No. Watched him play last week and he’s mediocre. His team is 6-5.

The stats are all gimmicky. I could complete 70% in that offense

As a QB2 sure.

Ole Miss did the same thing with Trinidad Chambliss & it basically saved their season, catapulting them into the playoffs.

Bring in a primary #1 starter from a G5/P4 from the Portal & then bring in a productive FCS starter as insurance in case the other guy gets hurt or isn't as good as advertised.

 

[SWFLSWAGG17]

With the size of our OL, the QB has to be 6'2" or taller unless he is one of those special players who can see the field without actually seeing the field.

What are your thoughts on Nickel? I thought you really liked him.

 

[Hufftwoseven]

Maybe as a Reese type back up if he doesn’t cost anything. No need to pay for a 2 when you’ve got perfectly fine back up in Emory. Spend for the top portal arm.

 

[ShadowSpring]

Better choice than Leavitt

 

[Astcloud11]

0 reason to not take him. He only has to earn his spot like everyone else and compete against other QBs on the roster, Coleman, or another transfer QB

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

Better choice than Leavitt

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Didn’t we try this already with Poff? How’d that work out?

 

[Memnon]

I do.

But he's likely gonna need more time to develop. Unfortunately, Miami isn't in a position where we can afford to let a kid like that start before he's ready.

That area around WCU is beautiful...Sylva, Franklin, Bryson City, etc, >>> real mountain towns (Highlands sucks).
