clemson has been one of the two best programs in the nation the last 8 years, gets every player they want, back to back first round qbs...they get a 5 star recruit, #1 at his position, he comes in at QB after sitting under the "tutelage of Trevor" for a year and is one of the worst qbs we will face.
our qb situation is a disaster, but you need to tell me where hafley went wrong if you want to kill him for the current situation.
December 2019: Hired as coach
January 2020: gets jurk to transfer to BC for three years as potential starter qb without having to sit out. if the criticism here is that jurk is made of glass (somewhat fair) so he shouldn't have gotten him, then you have to be okay with last year being 12 games of grosel. it wasn't fair to expect him to get an impact true freshman qb given his hiring timeline
2020 season: since you are playing jurk, he's got 2 years after this, and he looks at the very least decent (4 of his first 5 games 300+ yards passing) you have to convince a top qb recruit to pass over a baby rapist where he would have to sit anyway, to sit here for a couple of years. in my mind the only shot in 2020 that we got a top qb here is if we had grosel playing so you could say "youll get to start for 4 years", thus torpedoing the 2020 season
Additions to the QB timeline:
Dec. 1999 Though AB had entered The Portal, he went to the team meeting where JH met the team and from public comments, its sounds like he could have been talked into staying;
Jan 2020 Rueve was offered;
Dec 2020 Sam Johnson enters The Portal;
April 2021 Matt Valecce enters The Portal.
Ok so is the argument you’d rather have AB than Jurk? That’s reasonable. If we did go that route this year would be a rebuilding year at the qb position.
I can’t believe people actually think that we should have a very solid backup qb on this roster given the circumstances.
No, you are leaping to conclusions here. I would much rather have a healthy Jurk than a healthy AB.
Look, if Morehead turns out to be terrible, that is on JH. Otherwise, the fact that our 2-deep consists of Grosel and Menard is on the halfwit currently 1-3 in Fort Collins.
It's precisely this. He won't hit on every QB recruit. If 1 of Morehead or the kid next year turns out well that's perfect.
