Braxton Miller

Not a whole ton here but the link to BC is being made beyond the nexus...

Boston College
The reasoning: The Eagles have a fifth-year transfer at quarterback this season in Tyler Murphy, who arrived from Florida. (He signed with UF when Urban Meyer was coach.) BC uses a run-heavy offense and has been successful this season despite Murphy being no passing threat. Miller is a better passer than Murphy -- and a better runner, too. Plus, in going to college in the Boston area, perhaps Miller soaks up some of the Tom Brady "vibe" via osmosis. In addition, BC coach Steve Addazio is a former Meyer assistant.

I worry about character issues.

are you saying he's donkey 2.0?

That's some grade A analysis right there-maybe the football team can soak up some of the hockey team's "championship vibe" via osmosis as well...they share neighboring facilities!

or maybe the hockey team has soaked up some of the basketball team's vibe via osmosis and that's why they lost to uconn

Would be interested to see how Darius Wade would react to being given another year to develop

flutie's starting anyway

[twballgame9]

The idea that he is a better runner that Tyler Murphy may trump the Brady line. That was laugh out loud fucktarded.

Passer, no doubt.

He'll get over it.

do you think it makes a difference to hold the clipboard for miller vs. holding the clipboard for flutie?

Yes, he throws about 25 times more per game in the latter scenario.

You're referring to Wade right? Miller could run circles around Tyler Murphy. My friend is a huge OSU fan so I watch most their games and Miller could be a worse passer than Murphy.

Miller is a game changer in this offense and BC would be stupid to not go all out for him. I guarantee you he will want a guarantee that he'll start, which Daz probably won't give, and this he won't come here.

[commavegarage]

there is no way in hell adaziani wouldn't guarentee miller the starting spot. he should be fired on the spot if thats what stopped him from coming here.

Kind of like how he didn't guarantee Murphy the spot?

He doesn't believe in it philosophically.

He might make a one time exception so I do 100% agree with you

Miller is not a better runner than Murphy and is a much better passer. My friend's mom's sister says so. Oh and they are on TV a lot, so we all watch a lot of their games.

He doesn't have to give him a guarantee that he will start. He is guaranteed to start without anyone saying it, and he doesn't need the coach to affirm it.

... My friend's mom's sister ...

tedwarita, known college football expert, would have been a better reference here

But, unlike epstein's snuffleupagus, Tedwardita did not attend OSU

iwnh. he'll want to play for a factory and he'll get an offer from one. this isn't a guy with half a dozen starts to his name asking teams to take a gamble on him.

True, but there is the Meyer connection and there is the Murphy precedent.

I agree he can have a factory, if that's what he wants. If he wants to be BMOC and potentially a Heisman contender, he'll consider BC seriously. If he thinks he is an NFL QB, well then he is a moron.

[DrJackRyan]

I haven't been this excited about a QB to Transfer to BC rumor since the Ryan Mallett transfer rumor.
