How about 3 off the top of my head?
Dillon Gabriel
Spencer Rattler (do not want, but is better than Nix)
Max Johnson
Corch (and apparently Pat Nix) thinks that Bo Nix is Aaron Rodgers, but fails to realize that he's really closer to Jordan Rodgers.
The Nix truthers don't even realize that Max Johnson threw 27 TD's to just 6 INT's this past season. Playing for a team that we beat. Playing for a team that didn't have an "elite OL" (since this is always the excuse for Bo) with his best receiver being out for half the season. Playing for a team which fired their HC (ergo: they weren't very good).
And I don't even see Max Johnson as being "elite" or "amazing" - and that's the point. There are comparable QB's to Nix all over the country. Plenty of which haven't entered the portal, but can be talked into it. USC alone has two promising/talented QB's who are up in the air with Lincoln Riley coming there and Caleb Williams potentially following.
But we have to pretend like Bo Nix and his ~15-20 TD's per season is some insurmountable loss that can't be replaced.

Exactly. Truth is, 59% completion is not hard to replace.

I have stated this multiple times. Bo is closer to Jeremy Johnson than the elite QB that some of our fanbase thinks he is.

I think you are drawing a line there bruh. I dont think he cant be replaced. He can. Its not like he has been some Tom Brady back there.
I think its more of the timing of it all and the fact that we really have NO backups right now. Hell man, if TJ had gotten hurt late, we would be playing Loy
I like new blood at the QB position. I am a true believer that most QB's dont change a lot. They get a little better but they are what they are. Nix was what he was. A wanna be gun slinger playing in a system that did not need that kind of QB this year.
He is not a pocket passer. I dont ever think he will be a pocket passer and thus not a NFL prospect
If we are going to start all over next year with the program, and it appears that we are headed that way. Id rather us start a freshman than to use a portal guy. Its not going to equate to many wins anyway so lets get a young guy trained to play and not have to do this again at the end of next year

And just like that, Kedon Slovis has officially entered the portal.
