QB Dillon Markiewicz transferring to Texas State

[upperdeck]

I don't anticipate it happening during the season but could at the end of the semester. We were getting smashed on Saturday with a QB that passed for 46 yards(not sure to lol or cry) in the game and he still didn't get on the field. That tells me that Dino has minimal faith in him and that the gap between Shrader and Morgan is so significant that he would rather have Shrader still get the reps during an absolutely embarrassing performance. So if you're the #2 do you really just hope that the #1 gets hurt and at some point you get to play? And then if he doesn't, it's 2024(year 5) before you get a chance at getting on the field?

A lot of people in the thread seem to be projecting what they want to happen instead of looking at it from a kids perspective. I absolutely DO NOT want him to transfer but putting blinders on and saying it's not going to happen is dumbfounding when #2s are leaving programs all over the country as soon as they see their path to starting for multiple years blocked. I don't know who if any QB is going to wait around until year 5 in a program to get a shot at starting regardless of what their offers out of high school were.

Is there a limit of transfers? Could a dude transfer 4 times before eligibility is exhausted?

only once for free then you lose a yr i think

Perhaps he has really improved as a player since arriving here but based on his HS offer sheet he's not a P5 player. Add on that this coaching staff doesn't have the reputation for exactly developing QB's and you can't help but wonder how he is one play away from QB1. I think he realizes if he transfers he won't be going to a P5 and likely not a G5, he can get a great degree.

IMO he is lucky to have been offered to begin with and only was because DB&CO were desperate to bring in a Qb and took a chance on him. It's not like he had legit offers coming out of HS and is upset to not be playing.

Good for him. His brother Austin is the Center for Texas State.

Yes, I am happy for him. Gets to play close to home and really has a chance to get some PT there. Hope he kills it.

His brother is on the team but I don’t think he’s played in any games during his 2 years there.

Hope it all works out. The kid put up ridiculous numbers his senior year in HS.

Cooper Lutz posted a video of practice reps. Dillon can sling it. No idea if he has the other skills but ball comes out of his hand really nice.

Genuinely happy for him. Back home to Texas and gets to play with his bro? It’s where he belongs. I hope he lights it up

He’s not on the TX State roster. Not sure what happened here.
