It’s ok. Diff progrums.
QB's can be a bit of a crap shoot. Just because CDRW didn't work out doesn't mean others won't. I mean we all know he will not be a seasoned McCord in his second season starting at QB. I'm a little skeptical of Collins, partially because of his throwing form in his highlights and then his HS stats were so so. I know his senior year he had 4 new OL starting so that probably didn't help him. Also the other 4 star QB that LSU had gotten from Lousiana in the 2024 class, Colin Hurley, had very similar stats to Collins so I think the competition is likely tough there and its hard to put up stellar stats. Sidenote, Hurley was involved in a serious car crash this past January. It looks like Collins footwork and mechanics have gotten better since his HS season and from some articles it sounded like it was even much better as soon as he was at the Elite 11, which he did very well in. The mental side of things and leadership skills play a large role in how well a QB will perform and I know Fran knows this from the things he's been saying. The fact that Fran and Nunzio seem to be petty positive about the state of the QB room and decided on Collins already at this point has me a bit more hopeful. But the offense is certainly going to take a couple steps back IMO. It has to without a high round draft pick starting at QB. I'm glad we can now start getting Collins more reps at the position to accelerate his development and improve his chemistry with the receivers.
Collins was in the portal a full week before that kid entered.
Am sure collins knew the scoop prior, these kids all talk
Wait a minute. I thought they left because Coach Kelly is just too awesome.
In our case... once every three decades
Martin Van Buren Jr was a son of Martin Van Buren Sr., our 8th president. While he was from Kinderhook NY, in our prime recruiting area, alas he was not considered a P5 prospect given he died in 1855.
Many more know more than me, but that sounds about right. Similar to McCord last year, right?
Rickie forgot to flash the 8 fingers or he would’ve been starting over him.
if memory serves McCord didn't play at all, if the competition is truly over I'd expect the same. If he's playing then it's a closer race than advertised with the coaches wanting to see them all in game situations.
Might be time to get that memory checked...
I can fill everyone in on the Panic of 1837 if y'all need a history lesson. Some of us still teach history in school (cough, cough).
Kiss ass
Well, it all started with a paranoid Andrew Jackson accusing the Second Bank of the United States of trying to kill him. He vowed that he would instead kill it. He chose not to renew the charter. Losing the bank set off financial chaos and inflation. Van Buren, now president, chose to go with a laissez faire approach and initially did nothing to pull the country out of the depression.
