Message: [QUOTE="Archbold44, post: 5614095, member: 10528"] And the one that came here to play football was NOT forced to start 3 games as a true freshman, while the one that came here to play lacrosse/football WAS. So you have no idea how much worse McNabb would have looked relative to HIS abilities if in put in the same situation as Filardi. Michigan had a walk-on QB enter the portal. But that walk-on earned a scholarship... ended up beating Ohio State on the road and Alabama in a bowl. Michigan fans love him. Passed for 100 yards or so in those games. So not a great talent. I am sure he would have looked downright terrible during his redshirt/walk-on year if thrust into the starting role. This is 100% on the coaches, not Filardi. Maybe Filardi's maximum upside is a QB#3 somewhere in FBS. But to judge him based on the coaches screwing every QB over is unfair. [/QUOTE]
