1. Who will be my new 2nd favorite team to the saints? Maybe dak goes to nola
2. Which juniors leave?
3. Staley or fitz?
1. Dak to Nola would be awesome.
2. I don't know
3. I don't know but Fitz is leading right now.
the fact that Fitz played the most I would have to think him but then there is Williams.
If Williams is in the mix I'll go down and beat Mullen myself. He looked abysmal in his mop up duty with a better OL than Fitz had and Fitz torched teams when he got to use the non running portion of the playbook. Thank Williams for what he contributed but I'll be stunned if he's a legit possibility at QB next year.Quote:

Oh man please let Dak come to the Big D.
Hughes is trying to get Williams to Jackson State to be their QB
Williams is not going to be the guy. It's Fitz and Staley with Fitz holding the big edge. Williams will not be the starter (barring unforeseen injuries).
That would be great for both Hughes and Williams.Quote:

Only question is: Does Williams want to attend Jackson State?
Man, that makes a ton of sense for both, any chance Shump joins them? He would kill the SWAC.Quote:

2. Which juniors leave? Jones. I think that's it.
3. Staley or fitz? You guys know good and damn well that Mullen will play both. Leake & Tebow, Russell & Prescott, Relf & Lee, yada yada yada. I think Fitz will start but I expect Staley to play often.
Honestly, I hope he goes. Great fit for him and the school. I appreciate what he has done here but no chance he is our guy next year. Best of luck to Williams.
If I'm Shump- I'm begging for a move to LB/SS to have a shot at playingQuote:

Nothing against Jackson state, but I think Williams can do better. I think he could go to a sun belt team and play
Problem with going to a Sunbelt school is that he'd have to sit out a year because he stayed at the D1 level, and, since he used his RS this season, he'd only have 1 year to play.Quote:

Curious if he's close to graduating & could do a graduate transfer
Stay, graduate, and transfer to a sunbelt or CUSA team needing a qb.Quote:

I could see LB. I don't think he has speed and athleticism to play safety. Coman, Bryant, and Peters all got burned at times. And Shumpert ain't the athlete that those three are.Quote:

No 1-A school is going to want him after sitting for two years- not even the Sun Belt
Maybe so... If I were him though, I wouldn't de-value my degree in the processQuote:

Maybe Williams can get his MSU degree this spring or summer?
I'd love to see him get his MSU degree, but he's pretty much deadwood on the FB team at this point. And I do appreciate his efforts, especially at Arky in 2013.
Yeah but then he would miss Jackson State's spring and/or offseason workouts.Quote:

That way I could get my MSU degree and have peace of mind knowing I gave being a SEC starting QB the best shot I could.
Unless Hughes finds the second coming of Steve McNair I'm sure he'll still be welcome.
I want Williams to stay cause I'm not 100% certain Staley will.
and why do you say this? Are you close to the family?
That would be a terrible move for him. An undergrad and masters from Jackson St. is not going to be as respected as an undergraduate degree from MSU. If he can't graduate this year, or he just wants to go ahead and transfer so he doesn't miss spring practice, he'd be better off going to a Div. II school that has decent respect academically. Or hell, even go Div. III and light it up at Millsaps. If you're not going to have a career and aren't going to be on TV regardless, why not go be a stud at a lower division.Quote:

1. I actually hope the Saints get him. Who better to learn from than Drew Brees. Then our fav QB can takeover leading our fav team.Quote:

3. Fitz. Only one we've really seen. Ahead of Staley in practice time, and apparently #2 already behind Dak. Maybe the Spring will be a battle though. That'd be nice.
No. I don't expect him to win the starting job. I wouldn't feel 100% about anyone staying that doesn't win the starting job. Staley is no different.Quote:
