Dillon Gabriel now in the portal. Time to go get our QB.
We better pony up some cheddar!!! WE NEED HIM IN A BAD WAY
Rumor on the internet is Oregon
National guys say it is down to us and Oregon. Oregon will not overpay for him but we need to make a strong offer and harp on the familiarity of Lebby.Quote:

Do you want to get national attention, have a decent shot to make the playoffs, and a shot to prove you can succeed without Lebby? Oregon. That's ignoring NIL. We don't know what he wants out of life so it's hard to know what he'll do.
Hopefully Oregon goes all in on Cam Ward.
Not sure why we wanna pay big for 1 year. We need a guy that has at least 2 years
Apparently Ohio state hasQuote:

Doesn't matter, we have to get our QB. Could lead to other players coming.Quote:

Never commit much money to a slot receiverQuote:

Correct. Same with RB unless they are elite.Quote:
