UB's QB right?

UB's QB right?

Looks like he was at Rutgers then UB.

No thanks…. Great kid from Buffalo area. Just not sure he is an ACC QB.

He went to HS in western NY. Southwestern HS if I recall.

Had a good year in 2022. Didn’t do as well in 2023. I think that is at least partly related to the deterioration of the UB program.

If he is willing to come here without a guarantee he'll be the starter I'd be thrilled to get him. Would be a serviceable starter and a fantastic backup.

Solid depth QB with experience but not the type you start your head coaching career with

Was at Rutgers when Fran was there.

His stats are pretty bad. Maybe he'd do better with better talent around him though. Idk.

First head scratching visit/offer

Have to imagine this is to be backup qb

As we have seen, we have essentially 0 QBs currently….

Either way trusting HCFB on this

 

[wiseman3]

I dont think he has an offer...just says that he's visiting

I probably wouldn't read into it anymore than being a visit.

But...in my opinion we don't really even have a QB depth chart after Shrader graduates. CDRW is not the answer, Davis wasn't even trusted to throw passes when we had no-one that could and MacPhail is a walk on. So even if Snyder came in as a depth guy with no promises to start, he immediately becomes the best backup on our roster right now.

Snyder has an offer from Vanderbilt.

 

[UpstateSM]

He's not good at football

Yep we need 2 QBs not just a starter

 

[TheHaze315]

QB2 at best.

DaQuan Finn from Toledo hit the portal this week also.

Snyder threw for over 3000 yards in 2022. I believe only Ryan Nassib has done that at Syracuse.

He didn’t play well last season. QBs rarely get worse from year to year in college. Not a UB fan but I suspect the biggest reason his stats got worse is because the team got worse.

It is a great thing to have an experienced QB on the roster, especially if that QB is slated as the backup. Fran is a straight shooter and I suspect if we offer, it will be with the expectation he will be the backup.

If we had him on our team this year, he probably gets us two more wins once Garrett went down.

Snyder possible backup
Bring in a ready to go portal starter with a year or two left

He's not good at football

Have you seen him play or basing it off last seasons stats?

 

[bnoro]

If he's our 3rd option at QB, great. If he's our 2nd option at QB, I'm nervous. If he's our QB1, we're going backwards.

 

[SanDiegoCuse]

He’s currently on a visit to Vanderbilt so let’s see if he even ends up visiting.

 

[dasher]

I find it hard to believe, very hard to believe, that with all we have going right now, Fran doesn't have a plan for qb.
