Breaking Dylan to portal

He's not that good. This would be a major disappointment.
Yeah, we wouldn't want the 6th ranked transfer QB who is a proven dual threat that's only behind former highly recruited P4 qbs moving on that these industry guys aren't going to admit have red flags keeping them from being worthwhile (Lagway looking at his 3rd stop already). We shouldn't want a QB that everyone is listing as a guy worth getting high level looks.

As far as non-starters go - anyone got word on Kienholz?

LOL

I think he's a guy you can 'settle' on, but I sure hope they aim a lot higher.

Would take him over rolling with Lateef tho
 
probably not.

but money and playing time are one thing, promising important coaching positions to family members is entirely another.
Except his family member was retained long before he committed. If you want to argue we should have canned Donnie last year, well our o-line actually wasn't as bad last year.

Seriously look at who succeeds from the portal. So many of these guys leaving are leaving for reasons besides money. Locker room liabilities, always evaluated high never performed to that level, you fill in the blank.

Lower level moving up tends to be the highest portal success rate.

I'm sure not everyone will agree - but it's pretty proven at this point. But I get wanting the "big name"... the question will always be, why is that big name moving on if he was so good at the last stop?

I think I half agree with you.

If we're talking Leavitt or Sorsby, then you're probably just wrong. Those guys are "do everything to get" if you can.

But...if we're talking someone who was just 'pretty good' somewhere and coming here? Give me the lower level dudes who balled every time.
 
If you’re speaking literally we are an upgrade over Cincinnati seeing as we beat them in a game.

I said a real upgrade, not a team that maybe beats Cincinnati 50/50. If we were rematching them in a bowl game, I wouldn't be too confident that we'd win again...
