QB McKenzie Milton

[florange44]

Rumor down here is Milton will transfer in order to find playing time. I’d love to have him with us. Mobile, throws well on the run, keeps plays alive.

Remains to be seen if he can come back and play like he did before. I’d take that chance in a heartbeat.

High risk, high reward. Gotta have something behind him though in case he’s not the same as he was.

Originally from Hawaii. Seems to be teams go to this year. Why not.

 

[TheCusian]

Sounds good to me. More competition the better. The big sell job would be the OL and protection. If you think they are some injuries away from being pretty good, Sterlin and Dino have a good reputation for a QB friendly system.

I'm game.

 

[orangeinohio]

His knee injury was so bad they were considering amputating part of his leg.
I can't believe he's playing at all.

 

[sufandu]

Are the rumors more substantiated there than the TD rumors are here?

no

 

[cuse10]

He's on the scout team. He's nowhere close to playing full speed.

 

[Chip]

Just guessing that a guy who suffered an injury like that may not want to transfer to a school who plays their home games on turf.

Did u not see the chart yesterday we have the least support in the entire power 5 for our QBs last dead last .
You think kids when transferring for one last shot are not going to do there homework?
Best chance is the Lamberson kid and u have to hope teams aren’t pointing at us trying to poach him just sayin . You want a big mouse you have to build a better mouse trap

 

[Louie and Bouie]

No thanks if TD is coming back. Every personnel effort on the offensive side of the bal should be made to fix the OL and WR corps so we have the opportunity to have a functional offense next season.

That's on the coaches to sell the kids on playing time. Not many kids look at those analytics articles, I'm sorry.

Just want the current #13 on offense as the quarterback for at the very least one more year.

I would bet the parents of a kid who almost lost his leg would dig into things a bit

Dude if you don't think that the parents and others that are in a players circle don't research information about the coaches, the offense, the players and performance including oline and how they did the year prior, then I am sorry but you are flat out wrong. I mean that doesn't even make sense. You are right that it's on the staff to sell it but you are way off if you don't think people don't do their research. This isn't Pop Warner football. You look at the pluses and minuses.

I’m actually eating lunch with #13 right now

What we need is a Custis, 2 bad ass OLs and a couple of 325 pounders at DT. We dont need another QB.

i disagree, we need another qb just in case of injuries.

Maybe we need an option at QB that can better make up for the deficiencies. Perhaps more mobile or someone who can see the whole field as well.

Between his senior year in HS and the last two years, seems like the OL has been very unhelpful to the bigger picture of the O. I feel bad for him on that level.

Unless you're at practice and have seen what we have behind Tommy, you don't know that. I'm sure they have some hope in the two freshman, but if the Summers stuff is true - we could use an extra experienced guy to bridge the gap and protect the season if TD either leaves or gets hurt (or challenges him).

I'd take some OL help for sure.

My apologies as I wasn't clear. Yes, of course they are going to do their research and read articles. What I was trying to get to was that ONE article that the OP mentioned isn't going to make or break a decision especially considering it's using small sample data. It comes down to recruiting. Can our coaches showcase our program better than others.

Milton was an awesome player before injury. However, if we were even going to sniff this one, we better have another transfer QB in mind too. There is little guarantee that he will be back to normal. If he was, UCF won't let him get away.

But as I've said in numerous threads...we need all the QBs we can get right now if nothing else than competition for TD. He's been handed the keys for 3 years now, he needs competition to make him better.

he came home last night my other son arrives shortly my mother in law who lives with us isn’t doing well they wanted to see her . I haven’t seen Tommy in 5 months
He is hoping around . You have to see his scooter , basket , he got a horn it’s cool
I’ll give our experience on the game in tomorrow’s game day thread

 

[SWC75]

Until we prove we can create a quality offensive line, we're not going to be an attractive destination for quarterbacks, especially those come back from knee surgery. Frankly, both a successful comeback and a successful comeback here seems like a pipe dream in this this case.
