Devito Done For The Season Per McAllister

From my SU Football preview:

David Summers was going to go to Maryland, (our second opponent), but flipped to SU after their coaching scandal and Chance Amie transferred out. Per Syracuse.com, “is rated three stars and the No. 37 pro-style quarterback this cycle by 247Sports.com's composite rankings. As a senior at St. Joseph, Summers completed 56.4 percent of his passes for 2,631 yards, 39 touchdowns and 10 interceptions en route to being named Connecticut High School Coaches Association Player of the Year. He racked up 3,227 yards and 49 touchdowns during his junior year, completing 65.1 percent of his passes while throwing just five interceptions. Summers also logged five rushing touchdowns in each campaign. "I think one of the biggest things is he’s a competitor," St. Joseph head coach Joe Della Vecchia said. "That was one of the things that I found out about him early. He’s going out there to compete. He wants to win, he wants to be good. We talk about being great all the time at practice. He’s certainly one of those guys who wants to be the best on the field all the time."

His highlights: I love his ability to throw deep, even flicking the ball forward when off balance. He can throw fly balls or line drives equally well. His running highlights come at the end. He’s no Lamar Jackson or even an Eric Dungey but he does OK on the quarterback draw.


The newcomers for this year are:

Dillon Markiewicz is a 3 star from Texas, (which means he would have been a 4 star if he’d gone to Texas). He was ranked the #69 pro-style QB recruit in the country. “Markiewicz completed 72 percent of his passes for 4,187 yards, 45 touchdowns and six interceptions during his senior season. He also ran for seven scores” (Syracuse.com) I’ll take that, thank you. We out-recruited Boise State to get him, which says something about his ability. Here are his senior highlights:
Senior Season Highlights (12 Games)
I like his mobility, his ability to make decisions and throw on the run and his quick release.

Luke McPhail is a preferred walk-on from Massachusetts, who is a ‘pro-style quarterback’. He was “the fifth most productive passer in Massachusetts history in touchdowns (85) and yards (7,195)” and the “All-New England Player of the Year”, which sounds pretty good to me. Here are his highlights:
Luke MacPhail Senior Highlights
He’s got good size, can make all the throws, can scramble to buy time and throw on the run and runs the ball with determination and some speed. I like how his long throws have some air under them and gives his receivers time to run under them. He also hits guys in stride. What more do you want?

Jacobian Morgan is a 3 star from Mississippi, (Which means he’d be a 4 star if he went to Mississippi). He was ranked the #79 pro-style QB recruit. “As a senior, threw for 2,487 yards and accounted for 30 touchdowns (27 passing, 3 rushing)”, (Cuse.com). ““Jacobian is a born leader,” (his coach Calvin) Bolton said. “Outstanding QB with a strong arm. He’s very knowledgeable at this position. Syracuse found a diamond in the rough.” His highlights:
Jacobian Morgan Senior QB
He’s good at throwing the long ball and giving his receivers a chance to run under it. His short passes have a bit of a loop too them, as well, which is not always a good thing. The pace of the offense seemed a little slower than with Markiewicz, who looks like had has a better fastball. I didn’t see a lot of running in this clip.

Nunes expects all three true freshmen to redshirt this year. We’ll see…
 
It is a free year but a medical RS would allow him to transfer and not lose a year transferring if he chose to do that.

Don’t like a kid getting hurt.
He has taken a beating these last 2 years. I wanted to see other QBs play but I don’t like it under these circumstances.
He is supposed to graduate in December per a post from his pop.
 
Ugh what a shame man I feel terrible for the kid. That sucks.
 
This young man has really had some very tough times the last 2 years physically and mentally I know he has his own weaknesses with reads and making quick decisions but getting his bell rung several times a game has taken a toll on him , playing on a team with a weak Oline that doesn't protect him and can't open up the running game is horrible , sub par receivers who run wrong routes and drop perfect passes is an absolute disgrace and maybe I should mention at times the play calling puts him in tough situations to make plays, his season is now over and I wish him the best for a full recovery.

I mean the cast has been putrid we honestly would be better with a noodle arm QB because the WRs drop so many good balls and suck at catching the ball and hes got a big time arm.

I feel like everything would be better if those guys didn't blow it nearly every time he makes a good throw.

Get one guy who is a Hunter Renfrow catch everything type from FBS I don't give a darned if hes slow. Then get someone physical cause these guys are all weak and don't add strength at all during their time here. And things will be different.

I am not sure Devito can walk into a situation on a good P5 team where he is the clear cut starter should he transfer. It would not shock me one bit if he wins the job wherever he goes but if he stays we aren't going to bring in a better QB most likely.
 
Two TEs. Throw to Benson or Hacket half the time.
