Tate Martell has put his name in the transfer portal. So now we've got Wimbush, Buechele, Hurts, and Martell as the high profile guys in the transfer portal. There's also a QB at Buffalo that a lot of people seem to be high on. Comparisons to Newton because of his height and arm strength. So surely we should be able to find a transfer QB if that is indeed the route we want to go.
That's funny. He was talking shit to Fields.
I would take Martell in a heartbeatQuote:

BTW, hard pass. Seems like a douche.
If we take a transfer QB I feel pretty confident in saying it will be a Grad transfer.Quote:

A Corrall/Martell Egg Bowl would be spectacle unto itself. The over/under on the fights would probably be 5 and that would just be pregame.Quote:

Is there any point in recruiting QBs anymore or just entering the transfer market? I say that in jest, but it's getting wild out there.

This is gonna be more and more common going forward.
Sorry I didnt' realize the thread was already started. My mistake
Ha just passing along what I've been told. Thought it was odd that we had worse odds on him than Wimbush on the list yesterday because Vegas usually has their ear to the ground on these things.Quote:

Makes sense. Joe isn't going to block SchraderQuote:

I think this really helps the 2nd level teams because I believe a backup at a blue blood is far more likely to transfer out than a starter at at a school like MSU, OM, Arkansas, SC, OK State, TCU, Michigan State, Wisconsin, etc
As a coach you continue to recruit the best, play the best, & if the loser leaves double up the next recruiting cycle & pray for health for your starter.Quote:

Won't surprise me if martell ends up at ND. Booker will be a senior next season, so martell can take over there after sitting out. Georgia could be same dealQuote:

However this does help Blue Bloods, as there's always someone who's in desperate need for a QB. Michigan and LSU last year, LSU again the year before that, Auburn every QB change... they'll get the true cream of the crop and ensure it's even harder for teams like us to beat them, but the new system still probably helps us more than them
Good call on LSU. Auburn should put in lot tooQuote:

Yeah over on Reddit/r/CFB PSU fans are not happy with the new OC. The entire system revolves around using the whole field to spread the D out, making reads to put the ball where they're weakest, and noticing flaws in the D and dialing up plays to exploit it. The new OC doesn't know how to out scheme the D, basically he just calls random plays and the Moorhead O has always been about using the brain more than out executing themQuote:
