    I doubt Sawyer is sitting on the bench for three years without leaving, so we're going to lose Sawyer or Will regardless (unless Sawyer just stays for baseball) in the next year or so.

    You don't get him unless you tell him he's likely going to be the starter, and you don't tell him he's likely to be the starter unless you're pretty sure he's an upgrade over Will immediately, so I am good with it if we get him.

    ETA: I'm not one that thinks we are in desperate need of upgrading the QB position, but if you can do it, obviously you do it.

    From what I've heard Sawyer is a lot more serious about baseball than football right now. So that definitely is a situation that bears watching. I agree that Will does leave, but we'll still have Locke and Greek as well as the 17 walk ons Leach brings in every year.

    WTF is this? Never heard squat about this. Has he even tried the 17 out?

    I've heard that on here but have no clue how he could have shown that at this point. Is he skipping football stuff to go to baseball? Is he just not taking football seriously so people are assuming (hoping?) he cares about baseball instead?

    I think it's a bit more that some within the program don't perceive that he's taking football very seriously. Having trouble picking up the playbook, which is telling in Leach's system. Again, those same people say things might have turned the corner with him the last couple of weeks so we shall see. I still think if de Laura enters the portal then we'd be remiss not to atleast take a shot at him.
