Joe Filardi

Filardi has d1 tools. Obviously shouldn’t be playing this early, but I do believe he has the ability to be a P4 level starter.

I agree just needs a couple years to fill out and practice being a qb.

I can't fathom why Joe is the starter this week, and not Belin or Williams or Carney, unless some/all are transferring. Carney says he's coming back and maybe he gets the BC game. The rest - who knows.

I wish Joe the best, but this is about a tough a situation as one could be thrown into. Let's hope for a complete 180 in performance!

It's pretty clear actually. Carney has one game left to hold his RS, he's likely starting BC and playing most of the game. Belin is not ready to play at this level and his behind Filardi. Ditto Williams who will be in the portal the second it opens.
 
Some things are so obvious in hindsight: they bought all the HS hype on Collins. Thats why they landed him in the portal. He got to camp, and the coaches, and Pena all realized he wasn’t going to cut it. The staff knew the other guys were development guys, not ready to play. They missed on him, just like every school who offered him. (Are people really surprised HCFB didn’t announce to the world that Collins stinks, so we are QB shopping?)
They went out and got Angeli. Problem solved. Then he got hurt. Problem resurfaced.

I think you have most of this right minus a few details we've heard.
ALL QBs where told we where brining in two portal QBs and Angeli was the running up last year for our transfer QB once we got McCord.
Pena from all reports was looking for more $$$ and that pissed Fran off and he told him to take a walk, I don't think he would just ask for more money if he thought it was just going to be Collins.
As they say there are three sides to the truth and with this stuff we will never really know what is going on 100% of the time.

Yep, and it was pretty evident as soon as Pena pulled the ejection seat.

It was unnecessary for them to lead us to believe the QB competition was so close. Sometimes it is better to say nothing! Truth is, they didn’t know at the time, that we were going to find out!

Not my guy. Not really an all in FB guy. I have no dog in the fight. I’ve watched enough to know that Collins has no business being a P4 QB (at least at this time). I surmise the Jakari must be absolutely atrocious to not be in the mix. Evidently, the coaches think that Filardi gives them a better chance to win than Collins (who gives us zero percent chance to win. A math genius might be able to quantify how much he actually helps the other team to win). Carney: haven’t really seen him do much.
The fact that people are turning on FB, or think he is not doing what he can in the best interest of the program is mind boggling. By all means, let’s go back to the Babers era.
This season will make FB a better coach and steward of the program.

I figured as much about the redshirt even though most posters seemed to say redshirts don't matter, burn it. But if the kid came in with the plan of redshirting and was sold on that well...

But I can't say i agree with not giving him much to do in a game just because he's redshirting. That doesn't make sense to me. You play to win and you and him both want to get him valuable experience. And If he's good and plays good then maybe he changes his mind and wants to play. So not sure i would buy that the reason he didn't have much of a workload is solely because of the redshirting thing.

Could be he’s way down the chart in practice, knowing he’s a redshirt, and therefore isn’t getting a lot of pt even with the scout team?

Find it annoying that we were told Carney wanting to red shirt was not the reason he wasn't playing and that the QB competition between Angeli and Collins was so close.

Get over it. Football coaches don’t tell the whole truth. I tale as old as time. They hold back tactical information to keep the opponent guessing, in this instance Tennessee. I mean, I do not want my HC modeling himself after George Washington.

When one MUST talk, one MUST say something. When one has the option of saying something or saying nothing, the smarter option may be (and usually is) to say nothing. Not sure how a lie gets rationalized as coach speak...

They don’t need to go to much trouble. Collins is gone and Carney’s likely saving the RS. There’s no option besides Belin who mustve been outplayed by Joe.

You won’t see Collins in orange again

We just may have 3 scholarship QBs leave, at least 2, Carney would be 3. QB2 has to come from the portal, sell him on getting QB1 reps all spring and that Angeli has a serious injury that could extend into next season. We won’t get Joe Burrow but we sure as hell can get someone competent
