Here is a happy picture for y'all.

Love the old school Nintendo 64 shirt on the far right.

Who is that vintage gamer, Legacy?

Any of them play QB?

Tate knows better

This made me LOL

Chance leaving sucks. However, Devito is MORE than capable to drive this car.

This team will be fine, we do need to find a backup QB in the rare case Devito goes down.

This could help Devito because he will now get every single 1st team snap. Can’t wait to see what he has and can’t wait to cheer him on in the Dome next season.

I still think the mannerisms we saw at the CWB were a precursor to this...

QB Position for Next Season...(not a Devito Thread)

Agreed. Felt like this was a certainty all year. He never seemed engaged. Bailey thinks Welch was the #2 next year anyway so I’m ok with this

This means we're definitely going to lose the Georgia Tech game tonight.

Nice catch

Devin Butler played QB in high school. Just saying.

Well, that’s cool... maybe he and Chance will be competing for the spot at whatever school the transfer too...

This does, however, conflict with observations that were high on Amie. Highly doubt you can count on Welch to step up in a backup role.

Yeah. Always a good idea to read the board before you post.

I’m just going by Baileys observations. Which I trust more than random board obs. And with my own eyes. He was never an engaged QB here.

 

[Nahson]

Yeah. Always a good idea to read the board before you post.

I have two years of eligibility left, that’s why I’m calm enough to be sarcastic... Put me in coach!

 

[MadNY3]

If true, another causality to academics. Not surprised.

Well...I don’t think you can flunk out of the school THAT fast. Can you? One semester?

 

[MSOrange]

Well...I don’t think you can flunk out of the school THAT fast. Can you? One semester?

I would think a semester of probation at least. But it doesn't sound like it was just that reading some other comments.

Dawson, Tuazama, Kpogba and Redd, I think.

Didn't Herman recruit him at Houston? Perhaps Texas now?

ha, in no way, shape, or form was Amie on the Texas radar. He was from a football hotbed in East Texas and didn't get an offer from either Texas or A&M. He was the 127 ranked prospect in Texas and he flipped to Syracuse from Houston. Texas already has 2 four star freshman QB's in the portal because of Ehlinger, and they have the number 4 dual threat QB in the nation who signed last month and another verballed for next year.

I'm bummed Amie is leaving because I he was an intriguing as a developmental prospect and his depature makes the QB position depth - and the lack of a 2019 recruit - downright scary. But he was wayyyyyy overrated by this board. I imagine Syracuse will become an attractive transfer location as we enter this new age of the transfer portal. The bluebloods will continue to recruit multiple 4 star QB's a class, but we're seeing more and more of those guys transfer early. High school recruits tend to be blinded by the glitz and glamour. Transfers are focused on fit and playing time, so a school that would have had no shot at a kid out of high school might become a viable transfer location after just a season (see Cam Rising, 4 star, 11 rated pro style passer - at Texas, in the transfer portal, and taking an OV to Utah this weekend).

Dino runs a QB friendly system, and we'll be attractive to QB transfers (though perhaps not so much this year because Devlto is only a redshirt freshman). We need to get past this upcoming year with Devito intact, and then I think you'll see Syracuse land a higher rated QB transfer.

Dawson, Tuazama, Kpogbo and Redd, I think.

I think you are right. I'm a little preoccupied in the BB game thread.

Bailey was hinting about the possibility awhile back. That influenced his thoughts.

 

[All4SU]

No he doesn’t we have a guy who won us 2 ACC games our starter may not have. He was likely to be behind Welch.

Next year could in theory be DeVitos last if he plays well and Welch is definitely done so it’s a huge hit overall.

#2 QBs always have a chance to start. One play and they’re in.

 

[Pearl309]

we are three hits away from Servais being the most badazz looking qb1 in modern qb history

I really don’t know how to feel about this...it’s funny and terrifying at the same time!
