He needs to make a decision or we need to make one for him, get that 4* SMU QB and spend on a portal QB and a couple of OL


Smuphy mentioned him recently as well as a while back. Ty Hawkins. So we could try to get him if Deuce falls through, and.....

Unless Hank Brown ends up starting and playing well for the rest of the season, we will have to get a transfer QB, and probably get one anyway I would think.

If we sign Deuce, I doubt he plays for at least two years, he is really raw.

The QB situation for all schools will probably mean a plethora of transfer QBs.

Just an example, but look at Tenn. They have one of the top rated starting, the next two classes behind him some highly ranked guys, and they just got a 26 commit from the number one QB.

TX and GA to varying degrees the same thing.

Well....except us

Good quality QBs want to showcase their talents behind an average to above-average OL .

Our needs don’t make him a diva.

If we weren't so bad off and completely lacking of any leverage whatsoever we would've punted him a long time ago. I can't remember getting a HS qb this late in the game. He is also a project at that. If he was game ready like maybe a Stidham I could see it.

Jang,

I guess now is not the time to mention nearly all the high ranking 26 QBs are already committed as well

The fellas at 247 mentioned this fella:

Joseph Mbatchou six foot four and a half, 275lbs DL committed to Florida. Apparently he came for a visit last week for the game. With the 105 scholly rule pending they are taking a look at some guys who would take some time to develop. Think of this fella like a DL version of Favour Edwin.

From Cameron, basketball player who just started playing football.

Wonder if he can play QB? Im kidding, Im kidding, lighten up Francis.

Yeah, some of us were saying this back in December while others were saying trash QBs can become awesome somehow with better supporting cast.

Three of our best 4 QBs have been transfers... Cam, Nick, Stidham... (Bo was a recruit who started as a Freshman). It is time to move on from Thorne, but the folks behind him are young. But I am read to take a chance on Downtown Hank Brown.

Zelus has been a Texas lean for months now. It was either Clemson or UTa for him.

I read something the other day that said Duece Knight has finalized plans to take an official visit to Auburn for the OU game. It was said in the article that if ND commits take official visits to other schools then ND considers that recruit officially decommitted.

Does anyone here know if that really is the ND policy?

Then why hasn’t he been mentioned here in forever? Or any information coming out about his commitment. It wasn’t a surprise commitment it’s been scheduled for a while.

We haven’t been in contact with Zelus in a while
