So if he brings in Fine, you'll agree with that too?Quote:

Regardless of my opinion of KB, I'll be extremely impressed with Moorhead if he pulls KB. That would be a nice win for this staff publicity wiseQuote:

Larry Fedora, North Carolina
Buyout: $12.2 million
Mitigation/offset: There would be offset, but no specified obligation to mitigate
The Tar Heels are a putrid 1-8, and they've been trending downward for three years now after going 11-3 in 2015.
In my mind, that leaves MSU, and Ark. He just saw what we did to Ark... We have beaten Ark for 7 years straight. We have everything KB would need to compete.
Auburn.. not in it.
Miami.... they don't have the team we have.
I just think we could very well be in the drivers seat
Thought ark was outQuote:

I think Ark is out. Auburn would love him, but I believe he has ruled them out. He goes to Miami next... then decides Dec 4th.Quote:

If auburn is still wanting him, never count them outQuote:

I know he's not going to visit there a second time. He went mid week and that's it.Quote:

Close to home, has had a long relationship with Fedora, QB just drafted, knows a lot of the players. MO has been seen as the favorite by some. QB passing friendly offense.
I think Fedora will be fired... 3 years on the decline.... 2-8 right now. Which is why I think MS St and Mizzou.... Maybe Ark.Quote:

We are in the top 2 of his, so get ready.
That's what I'm saying Jack. KT has a year in this offense already. I feel JoMo stunted his growth, by not letting him or Mayden get real game experience. Next year Key or May starts and gets that in the fire experience. KB comes here and has performance like Fitz we in trouble, another wasted year. JoMo has shown no matter how bad the starter is, the backup will stay on the sideline. With the hype around KB it may play out like that again. That philosophy Will set us back.Quote:

At the same time I still feel OK with him as our QB next year based on what I have seen from him this year.
Hill was labeled as this year's starter, right? And 90%+ are using RB by committee. JoMo judgement still, Aries was the complete back of the 2. Hill will be special, but has room to improve pass blocking. KB probably got way more real game experience before he was labeled starter. Why wasn't JoMo preparing KT or May when he had chances? We saw times were Fitz seemed hurt, LSU, JoMo trotted Fitz right back out there. And no where have I said or many argued Fitz is better than KBQuote:

What concerns me is 16 tds/10 ints for his career. Really? At Clemson with their talent against the ACC? Fitz had better stats as a RS Soph for 1 season than KB has for his career ... outside of completion %.Quote:

Why talk about it without looking it up? Why the axe to grind?Quote:

The TRUTH is that KT has gotten WAY more time. KB attempted 9 passes the year before he was the starter. The year before that... 9 passes too. So for 2 years prior to him becoming a starter, he attempted 18 pass.
KT has been at MS ST for 2 years... In year 1, he threw it 66 times... Year 2... 39 times. Both years... under 48% completion.
So I ask again... Why are you on here downing the coach over something that is a TOTAL LIE!???
You got me... I lied. I stated as fact using the word "probably". Fact is KT's significant playing time has happened due to injury to the starter and suspension of the starter. I do have an issue with a coach not preparing his backups when score or starter performance allows. We saw last year one dirty play and your backup becomes starter. Did KT win his starts or not?Are you ok with the lack of reps? KB has had the stability of being in the same offensive philosophy his entire career at Clemson. End of the day I'll be cheering the Dawgs on.
Kelly Bryant immediately quit on his program in the middle of the season when the backup, who is better, moved into the starting role. Why in the ever living hell would we even consider this guy to join our program? It's beyond stupid.
He didn't quit he chose to extend his career by a year by RS instead of ending his college career holding a clipboard. Not that hard to figure out honestly.Quote:

Double LOL!! Is this guy a moderator on this board?? Geez, I hope not.Quote:

But then do you really think he would beat out Lawrence next year after already losing to him once? That's why your thought doesn't make any sense.Quote:

While KB is a definitive upgrade over Fitz, I'm not sure y'all couldn't do better, but I don't know much about yall's current QB situation....
On the issue of "quitting", I can see both sides of that, but I'd like to see more peeps handle it like JH did as opposed to the current trend... I'm not sure I'd want a guy coming in under his own terms then holding the coach hostage and possibly bailing on me, too...
Bottom line, though: If Joe thinks the cat can help him win, he'll bring him in... and that's his job.
