I'm coming to the respected football minds on tPB to get the straight answer: Cole Payton?

Seems like everyone is super impressed with the young man. It seems like our coaches have decided, as many others have, that Haarberg has more upside at the QB position. So be it, there's probably something to taking the guy who is taller, has the bigger frame, and the bigger arm. However, if this kid is even close to 6'3" 215 lbs. and is athletic as everyone is making him out to be, why not just offer him a chance at QB and then move to defense or somewhere else if it doesn't work out? If that's a good take, I'd love to hear more about it. If it's a tater take, I'd love to hear the reasons for that, too.

I just posted this on RSS, he is too good of an athlete not to take. Offer him, let Duval do his thing for 3 years thrn release him at OLB and let him wreck teams from the edge.

Maybe he gets an offer after Patrick Payton is a Nole 4 Life

I'm sure he'll be a star at North Dakota State, at this point even if Nebraska offered him I doubt he would flip.

If I'm him there's no way I flip. If I get to NDSU and it doesn't look like I'm going to make it at QB then I consider transferring.

I found it weird how hard Cornicator was riding the Haarberg train. I had to quit arguing though. He said he watched every game of both teams.

He’s a knowledgeable guy but I’m not sure I trust his analysis anymore tbh
