Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[DD4ME]

As of now viable QB transfer names mentioned include:

Luke Altmyer - Illinois
Avery Johnson - Kansas St
Sawyer Robinson - Baylor
Rocco Becht - Iowa St

Avery & Sawyer outperformed Nico on that bottom chart which compare PFF and ESPN. Luke is similar range and Rocco performed lower.

Bumping to make it easier to find QB graph. Wanted to compare new names. Not sure how I feel about Byrum (USF) making the list. He didn't really play last year had a QBR of 52 for the time he did. That is why he is not on this list. Of names mentioned the ones that performed in QBR and PFF best are:
Avery
Robinson
Altmyer

Of the names with the most traction I would say Robinson. Altmyer i like his touch and arm strength, but no one is talking about him anymore. Avery is supposedly a K state kid through and through. He's from KS and would not even give KS the time of day. I don't see him moving, but I like him best.

 

[DD4ME]

Lol it's because be already called everyone. Lol

 

[volbeast33]

Wouldn't Rocco Becht currently be at Iowa State and in class?

Or was this poster on X trolling?

He is also not in the transfer portal yet. Surely our staff is sneakier about reaching out to players at other schools.

@Jack Burton can you confirm?

TB did not make such a definitive statement.

No thanks.

Based on numbers, butch did well in 2014 and 2015. In respect to numerical rankings and “star gazing”, that was the topic

Butch had one year that his average star ranking was in the top 10(8th) using 247. I wish we could recruit like Clemson did leading up to their national championship. They hit on a few stars and the rest were solid players throughout their depth chart. Clemson had very few misses. Heup has way too many bad evaluations of players.

This is like the opposite of Christmas Morning & Christmas Morning mixed together.

It has to be UCLA for Nico I would imagine. I am sure they can pay him some but have fun getting destroyed in front of a half empty stadium.

You're probably not going to like this, but Butch recruited more offensive stars in those two classes than Heupel has in his 5 years here.

Choices for QB1 position

A. Get a guy out of Portal ( then watch everyone complain about the guy)

Or


B. Give the keys to the car to Merk or GM ( then watch individuals complain about not getting a QB from the Portal)

Or


C. Both

15-25ft. on live shad. They wouldn't touch cut bait. They preferred the bigger shad over the livelier smaller ones.

Thanks! They're a lot of fun to catch!

I had a feeling Nico had a new spot lined up before he left. There was just no way someone could screw that situation up that badly. The no contact makes sense.

They did screw it up that bad. I think they must've got a deal done after Tulane left the table. Probably learned a few hard lessons within a week.

These will be rollin in all day

My guess is they’ll bring in a 1 year guy but there will be a competition in the fall

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Kinda wish Peyton hadn't already used his final year,

 

[StoVol]

We will be tackling this guy

I don’t think he was ever actually planning to leave. Just a terrible miscalculated move

Krampus coming

 

[MemphisVol3]

Rodney Garner is elite, IMO

Chop is elite

Good pick up for them. May not be a good decision for him.

Seems like they thought they controlled Tennessee. Egomaleava.
