Any truth to us getting Mason Fine next year?
I’ve heard it’s a done deal if Bryant says no, and I’ve heard it’s unlikely he leaves unless the coach for UNT goes.

Are you saying fine and the coach would have to be a package deal?Quote:

100% agreementQuote:

Kelly Bryant will not be an upgrade to anything State has put on the field at QB this year.

I have no problem with pursuing a qb. It's Bryant i object to. He is not goodQuote:

People putting a lot of stock in our backups are garbage. We basing this off hear say and rumours. Heck we heard Fitz and the WRs were lights out in practice. We haven't seen Key or Mayden enough in live action to throw them out with they bathwater. But have seen a HC too stubborn to adjust his offense to fit his talent. We have seen Fitz suck it up multiple games, yet again JoMo resisted change.
Same HC burn Keys possibility to red shirt with no meaningful snaps, my bad SFA. Now we want a 1 year rental that MAYbe better than Key or Mayden? I would rather use that spot for a red shirt OL or WR, Lord know we need options and depth at both.
1. Some of us tried to tell everybody our receivers sucked.
2. Key didn’t want to redshirt. Reports from camp have been he’s struggled with the offense.
3. Mayden was dropped by Penn St. when Jo was there.
4. We are loading up on OL and WRs
I agree with the refusal to change his offense much though. I’d take Bryant if he wanted to come.
I've stayed out of these Bryant discussions bc I doubt we get him but what the hell are y'all talking about? Bryant would be a Top 5 conference QB for us and the perfect 1 year guy to groom Schrader.Quote:

He isn't coming to compete. He is only coming if promised the jobQuote:

NF: 26/57 (45.6) 315 yds (5.5 per att) 1 td 2 int; 34 rushes 122 yds (3.6 per carry) 1 td
Now I'd love to see the passing stats if you flipped WRs. Even so, fitz still got almost 1 yard more per att
