Ok then, how about Jaden Daniels. Took LSU to the SECC his first year transferring.
If we coukd have Jayden for multiple years sure take him


We are acting desperate af just to pair some 1.5-2 million dollar dude with a bunch of freshman receivers .

If Throne beats feet cause of this then we save 700k so essentially AU is paying 800k for cam Ward.

Yeah he did well. Jarret Stidham did too. There are good ones out there.
Marshall did too. We wasnt worried about moneyball then.

Stidham only threw 18 TDs in 2017. its not like he was phenomenal the whole season. Thorne threw 16 this year. Thorne isnt that far off

For the 2022 guys:

Nix, Daniels, Williams, Ewers, Rattler, Penix Jr, Dillon Gabriel

2023 standouts were a little less impressive. DJ U had a good season at Oregon state. Leary @ Kentucky did nothing. Hudson Card at Purdue did nothing. Sam Hartman played well at ND?

He had a walk on receiver better than any of ours by a metric mile.

You are arguing with Freeze himself.

He literally said its not like "first year guys are setting the woods on fire."

That wasn't even coach speak. That was him saying he hadnt seen anything he liked.

And you just brought up Ashford

Sure it was. He’s playing the NIL game by acting like he’s not desperate.

Link? He’s saying almost verbatim what he said last year, as he was looking for someone else.

What's Ward's draft stock looking like? Seems weird he is having to decide between college and NFL. Most guys would just go NFL

Do yall listen to the press conferences? If not stfu. Freeze said he focus was on closing out the recruiting. Not the bowl game. It’s not like I’m just pulling shite out of my arse.


What we are really discussing is that the head coach "opted out" of the bowl game preparation. How can we blame players for doing the same?
