Wonder what his height really is as many tend to exaggerate and add inches.

5'9? fricking A Freeze.


What SEC QB has been successful @ 5’9?? Can he even see over the OL to progress his reads?


Now Warrick Dunn (FSU) thrived at that height, but he was a RB..

Noone was asking his height when he almost beat FSU last season with an even weaker Boston Colllege.

I havent seen any listings below 5'9. He kinda has a similar build as Kyler Murray. I am pretty interested into what happened during or after the Virginia game. He started the season 3 wins one loss, and 67% completion percentage through week 6. got injured and sat the Western Kentucky game, and finished with 1 win the next four games. He mightve injured his running ability thus the last stretch he was ineffective.

As for he got benched. Yeah he got benched because the offense he was leading was not moving. He threw 18 TDs and 5 Ints at that point. There is still a whole canyon of information yall are routinely missing in the middle that suggests there could mitiating or limiting factors. Cant just be like "he got benched" he is no good. Why? because I am not sure his backup is by default better. "Or his qbr is bad, he cannnot be good." The QBR is a good argument but there are still plenty of information that needs to be understood before I see that.

Lastly, we still have WW, and DTHB, and Deuce, so he isnt just going to be gifted the job. He will have to compete to earn it.

He got injured and they stopped using their best RB as much for some reason. Alos BOB installed the pro style system that he just doesn't fit and their WRs are about as good as ours we're last year. BC doesn't really do NIL, so they are not in good shape roster wise. I was honestly surprised Castellanos didn't transfer after last season... I heard he reached out to Gus about transferring back to UCF, but Gus already had Jefferson locked up and decided to stick with him.

What do we need from the portal? You can scrutinize portal transfers all day if you would like. Jalen Hurts got benched. Pavia couldnt even muster 70 passing yards against fresno State in the bowl game. Jaden Daniels finished with 10 titties and 10 interceptions his last year at Arizona State. The only no brainer that I see is Cam Ward's from start to finish.

I’ll never understand it!

For example, the “CLaNK” qb1 had so many open running lanes on one of their loss, but decided to sit in the pocket.

I would be perplexed if I was his OC. Take what the D gives you.. he’s obviously trying to show he’s NFL worthy

Thomas Castellanos is in the portal and has an offer from Auburn


So we offered a guy who got benched and then went into the portal. Like I said in another thread. He quit on his team. He didn't wait to finish the season but jumped in the portal post being benched.

Have you seen Diego Pavia walk into the Vandy huddle? Dude looks to be 5'7", he just disappears behind the other players.

A proven Qb, quality LT, DT, RB and maybe a WR although I like the guys we have in the room there. Need another Safety as well

Pavia wins. If Castellanos was stacking wins against quality opponents, no one would be complaining.

Thomas is 21....
I have been posting in this forum since 2014. If I were Thomas I would have had to begin posting here at 11.... I am close enough to know something about Thomas. I have watched him play since he was a Freshman at Ware County. I think he would do well at Auburn. Reports are he was offered over one million in NIL money. The rumors are he may be committing as soon as next week.
