If you want a break, just play dead. Is that like calling in sick?View attachment 735549In the marsupial world, there is no off-season
Ehh...questionable.Feels like insiders (JAllen, Callahan, VQ) are trying to set our expectations for a QB low (low level QB1, underclassman QB2 with potential). I hope it's just a ruse to prevent anyone from accusing us explicitly of tampering, but I'm not optimistic. The Spring Portal is a terrible time to find truly gamechanging players, expecially at QB where teams lock up their 1s and 2s before New Years.
I wouldn’t be surprised either way but they would be wise to write a check for the best QB possible.The risk you run of bringing in a top flight QB1 is that Merk or GMac might say “see you later” and you definitely don’t want that, especially if that player has more than 1 year of eligibility. Also, guaranteed starter when you walk in the door has not been Heupel’s SOP, so I don’t think that’s what he will do now.
I think the coaches saw enough from the other QBs this Spring to feel confident and want a solid depth piece to go with them.
Therefore, I HOPE we get a big time QB1, but I don’t expect it.
I think Big Nick ridiculously started with what they were asking of Tennessee. But even Nico's current 2.3 was likely too much for TU. Maybe they would have come up with a million or a hair over. Their starter is suspended, so they are in a vulnerable position. But the door is shut now.When your lowest low gets revised lower.
