Well Dante was an original committ who didn't come when Dillingham left for ASU. We used bridge QBs until we could develop. Cristobal left us with trash. We have Akili Smith Jr who raw but I think he got next in 2 years.For what?!
but fr, I hope we adopt the Oregon plan fulltime.. Straight Portal babyyyy, Bo Nix to Dillion Gabriel to Dante Moore is niiiiice,
Anyways, I been vocal as hell on here I am portal QB ALLLLLLL Day (you can look at championship last year, draft, past high school 5 star QBs, etc.) , I hope we always in portal for QB just like UO!

He is getting annoying tbh but he gets at least another year
Another former MSU player
I would like to see Mel Tucker back at MSU. He brought something interesting to that program. Unfortunately it will never happen

Oh he's not going anywhere this year barring some inexcusable 80 point loss to A&M and/or a scandal. I get that he got y'all back to prominence, but y'all can do better, and with A&M making the playoffs, the boosters will be starting to get antsy.

He was...interesting, we'll say lol. He could recruit and built well out of the portal, but he was a pretty lousy coach. You can say he was more of a delegator, but the coordinators he delegated to were fukking horrible. We had the worst secondary in D1 for 2 or 3 straight seasons. Outside of the Kenneth Walker season, we were pretty abysmal.
A LOT of talented players transferred and ended up as major contributors, high draft picks, etc.
Off top:
Keon Coleman
Germie Bernard
Sam Leavitt
Derrick Harmon (1st round pick last year)

Smokin my Opps like Patrick Mahomes pops
I would say Urban ain't walking thru those doors but apparently....
But unless they plan on holding him hostage and not letting him leave til he signs a new contract, PSU > Florida as it currently stands
Shiiid that man probably got warrants in Florida
Talking bout chips before nikkas could playYou only need about 10 more to catch up
Still obsessed with the big
No, but from accounts of rappers it was really dangerous to be on the opposite coast
But i can say in the early to mid 2000’s nikkas would go to the west coast and play the game weak abd have to lay it down as they got their jewelry removed in broad daylight
And that’s why shaq became a crip and used to have hella affiliated nikkas at the lakers games abd around his family to keep an eye on them
Ayyy man
i might have got called an unc but i ain’t that damn old They don’t, but in these times i don’t blame them, a lot of these kids are not what they are
They won’t

I subscribe to this notion, but Oregon has a couple tucked away lil akili smith is one
that man was ass Take Vince 05 away and do you understand Texas ain’t really bout much, Steve’s doing the lords work, but can they do better, probably, but who’s better, this is such a finite margin of increase and it’s not many who can hit that, abd aren’t cemented some where else

Not mad at miami, it was a joke breh.. Just found it ironic how UO have benefited from 3 portal QBs and asking do we recruit them when you see the benefit of portal QBs up close..
Also I am the last to ask that as I tell everyone PORTAL QB me for life.. Its way easier to evaluate, money better spent then waiting to develop on bench then growing pains and even if they hit you get one year anyway, MAYBE two.. We can go thru list of top 5 high school QBs and then check any measure of success for portal QBs and they win hands down. I would never waste my time with a high school kid as coach who look at the PSU guy, developed some qb goes to orange bowl, almost gets to championship game, loses to portal QB comes back and #2 in nation, 2 weeks later fired, lol.. Im not banking my career on that..
Oline/Dline you recruit and keep inhouse, not many in portal.. Most every other position I am down to develop from high school recruiting actually and just fill holes that come up naturally.. But QB? Portal has been my position for awhile, especially they dont have to sit out a year anymore..

I agree with you on this... of the 8 blue bloods, they'd be in the 6th - 8th ranking

You notice how the tides turned when it was LEGAL to compensate players?You only need about 10 more to catch up

PSU has the easier path to the playoffs, especially with no OSU on the schedule until 2028.
Florida has a higher propensity to actually win titles....but SEC heads tell us how stacked the conference is, and how weak the B1G is, so why would the UF job be more desirable?
If Cignetti wins a title at IU, the entire sport going to get turned upside down...bc as it stands now, Clemson is the only non-blue blue/non-blue blood adjacent (UGA, LSU, UF etc.) to win a title since Ga Tech/Colorado in 1990.
