Very interesting if true, but I don't think Kiffin will try to pry the best prospect in the nation from a team he used to work for. That would be a pretty shatty move on his part regardless of Barkley's interest. Plus, we have Tajh Boyd coming next year. Plus, there will be other Matt Barkley's next year and the years after that. I wouldn't look too much into Barkley's curiosity even if it is true.

Don't really care about the mobile QB argument, but the drive that Brent led for points involved 0 completed passes. It was an 80 yard drive with Houston, Riggs, and Davis accounting for 64 of them, including the TD. Erik Ainge threw 3 TD passes. I think you can pretty much chalk that one up for the immobiles.

The comment I originally responded to said that he "wanted barclay because he's a pocket passer." Obviously, the poster doesn't know a thing about Boyd except that he's a black quarterback. In fact, Boyd's a pocket passer first, who happens to be mobile, but then goes on to say that pocket qb's have better judgement, which reads like an underhanded racist comment, considering that Boyd is a pocket passer. Typical...


OK:

Mobile quarterbacks vs. Spurrier 2-2
Non mobile quarterbacks vs. Spurrier: 1-5

Throw in Vs. Urban Meyer and Spurrier:
Non mobile quarterbacks: 1-8

Even including the Zook/Spurrier/Meyer years:
Mobile quarterbacks 2-2
Non Mobile quarterbacks 3-10

Only Zook Spurrier years:
Mobile Quarterbacks- 2-2
Non mobile quarterbacks- 3-6

As FAMU's Coach Jake Gaither said....give me "mo-bile, ag-ile, and hos-tile"
I want Heath Shuler as a college QB!

LMAO, the tools on the Sports Animal don't know who Barkley is. Caller had a question about him.

"The kid from Texas?"

"Do you mean Tajh Boyd?"

etc.

Pathetic ignorance.

Probably not, but he's taking a visit which is more than 114 D1 school scan say.

Has SCar ever had the #1 recruit visit? Much less commit?

He's not going to UT. Theres nothing more to it than that. When you guys get offended you try to put the heat on USC which has nothing to do with what you're talking about.
