I don’t care if he looks like a ZZ Top member if can win games. He has some skills that we can use. I think he will make some plays that will make you jump out of your seat and others that will leave you scratching your head.

The thing about Shrader that I keep coming back to is his HS rankings. If we'd landed that kid out of HS, there wouldn't be a second thought about him starting.
Also factor in that he performed as a true frosh against elite defenses like Auburn, Tennessee, LSU, etc. and I think we can extrapolate that he's got the chops to play P5.
Now, we have an incumbent in place who also came in with accolades [Elite 11], but who has struggled on the field. DeVito is going to have his work cut out for him to hang onto the job. Glad Shrader's in for spring ball -- that will help accelerate his developmental curve in our system.
May the best player win the PT. Don't care which one of them it is. But we need to have a winning season and get back to a bowl THIS YEAR. Which to me means that DeVito -- even if he wins the starting role -- will be on a much shorter leash if he doesn't move the sticks and put points on the board. Dino can't afford another 4 - 5 win season.

I can not say I am keeping up with all the transfer rule changes, but I thought he would be eligible due to covid to make a one time transfer without a waiver.

DI Council adopts new transfer legislation
The Division I Council launched a discussion of a return to some recruiting activities, and the group intends to vote on a return to recruiting during its April meeting. Division I has been in a recruiting dead period since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. Council members...

The Council affirmed its preference to vote as soon as April on a legislative proposal that would provide student-athletes the opportunity to compete immediately after transfer, no matter what sport they play.
We should know soon.

Just read on ESPN that one time transfer without sitting a year was approved by NCAA today. So GS is officially in play for the upcoming season. The QB room officially is more competitive today and thats a good thing for the team.

Reports: Transfers won't have to sit out season
The NCAA Division I Council voted Wednesday to change the long-standing rule that forces transfer athletes in football and basketball to sit out a season at their new school, a report said.
It appears it is finally going to happen...

Just to put some interpretive perspective on those numbers:
- 57% completion rate
- 13.1 yards per completion
- 6.33 yards per carry
...as a true frosh.

If a regular student can transfer colleges why can't a student-athlete? If a coach can leave a team and immediately go coach somewhere else why can't a student-athlete? All these rules exist to protect the institutions, not the players.
