Will we still look for a transfer quarterback?

 

[Williesfan]

Will we still look for a transfer quarterback?

We will likely need more than 2. I think we are down to Sullivan and Boe

 

[FeralFelidae]

We will likely need more than 2. I think we are down to Sullivan and Boe

What about Lausch?

 

[Medill '03]

We will likely need more than 2. I think we are down to Sullivan and Boe

Don’t we have two other QBs on scholarship?

 

[Hungry Jack]

We also have Aidan Gray.

In order of seniority (year)
Sully (20)
Lausch (22)
Gray (23)
Boe (24)

I really look forward to how Braun will use his various QB's.

 

[mesacat]

Hope we quickly get an OC/QB coach who can accelerate their development.

Since our last game is on December 23rd, will Braun be the cold hearted killer and fire a bunch of coaches on Christmas Eve?

I really look forward to how Braun will use his various QB's.

Starter, backup, guy who runs around and gets tackled, scout team.

I’m happy for Boe’s commitment, and it speaks to his relationship with Braun.

No head-over-heels excitement on this commit, obvious due to perceived pedigree.

Boe is the third straight Illinois quarterback without another P5 offer to commit to NU.

Sullivan held an Indiana offer when he chose NU. Gray was an early commit and Lausch was a baseball player. Boe only had an FBS offer from Central Michigan, though the football at NDSU is at least as good.

Gosh I’m excited for a new OC, and I’m excited to see who Braun finds, when the time presumably comes.

My head is spinning. What are you trying to say?

 

[NUCat320]

My head is spinning. What are you trying to say?

That the NU quarterback room still needs a lot of work.

(You’ll note that we had few YES! comments and a lot about how this affects the QB situation at large.)

So:
1 - responded to st Paul with a silly joke
2 - complimented the strength of Braun’s perceived relationship
3 - commented that the reaction to the commit is less yahooooo! and more hmmmm
4 - provided context why that reaction is justified, given the ‘under the radar’ nature of our current crop of QBs
5 - resisted the urge to trash Fitz 😉, but expressed optimism and excitement for the future of the offense


My attention was divided due to a neverending game of Uno. I will do better next time.

Thanks for your insight. Do you disagree with something?

I don’t think any of it will be a surprise to anyone.

Ok, it was written like a Professor trying to get us students to decipher context to get to a point that could have been made in ten words. It is creative, give you that.

Braun's dilemma -if we win next week it would be four straight and significant improvement of the offense. We can argue that only a midseason injury to Bryant kept us from a B1G West title . Under this scenario do you fire the coaches that have brought you to the Coach of the Year? I guess i'm interested in whether we come out on fire or mail it in next week. That may go a long way in pointing Braun's new direction

Yes because our offense is still terrible.

You must have missed the part where I resolved to do better next time. I’m with ya, bruh.

Heck yeah… see GCG2003 post about our QB recruiting. Dreadful!

 

[wicker]

is Boe any good
Or just a new warm body?
Board is divided

Was Braun any good
When Fitz got him for DC?
The Board had no clue.

Hopefully they don't get the Billy Reay note-under-the-door treatment.

I wouldn't open any cards....or answer the door....if foot steps on the roof...hide on the floor....the Grinch does not like losing seasons 21 & 22 . so jump in the sleigh with your good friend Sue.....and hope that thing 23 brings good things to you.

Well I told you yes.

The D will improve
