Rickie Collins

[Qbobby]

If u expect him to just walk in and score you are crazy he got a couple first downs but yes he need stop improve and improve fast and not turn the ball over .

I mean, he literally walked in and scored...

Carney is gonna get a long look. Collins is very raw as a passer, I wouldn't be shocked if Carney became the starter at some point this year.

Carney is straight out of HS. Why is there so much faith in this kid. Ricky is in his 3rd year of college. We better hope Ricky can grow as a starter.

And then threw alot of poor passes, even his completions were off.

 

[CanadianSU]

He looked terrible to me.

Pretty over the top take. Not sure what he did that could remotely be defined as terrible.

 

[Ttk.gman2]

Im just saying not this year. Who knows what next year holds.

I think Rickie or Steve starts next year . Carney is a couple years away.

Talking about after that drive….

He doesn’t have the game reps he will improve over the year all we need is to get to a bowl game against this tough schedule and the season is a success.

 

[Phillymoose]

He looked terrible to me. I predict we see Carney before too long

I don't agree with this. Some of the play calls were dumb but he put the ball where it was needed.
The OL picked a bad time to crumble under pressure... whereas they played well for most of the game.
What are we even taking about after Collins got the save in Death freaking Valley?

 

[Qbobby]

Talking about after that drive….

After the drive I saw him have at least two passes dropped and Clemson blitzing the crap out of him. After not prepping to be the starter, I thought he did about as well as you could expect.

You're right, just pointing out facts.

You're right, just pointing out facts.

Hopefully a full week of practice will get Rickie on the same page as his receivers and the offense will take off.

I hope Ricky takes the job and runs with it but he's not at LSU and lost out to Angeli here for a reason. Carney can sling it has a much bigger arm and SU wants to throw a lot. It's not a big leap.

I’m saying the same thing? He will improve each week and get more comfortable.

How do you know he has a bigger arm than Rickie?

 

[JeremyCuse]

How do you know he has a bigger arm than Rickie?

From people who have watched practice

 

[Ttk.gman2]

From people who have watched practice

If carney is such a better qb than Rickie why was Rickie named starter in the spring?

I said Bigger arm, didn't say he was the better overall qb

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Can't get a med redshirt, we're passed the 30% mark of the season. Can still ask for one but likely to be denied

This is game 4 out of 12. 30% of 12 games = 3.6 which gets rounded up to 4.

Problem is Angeli already redshirted in 2022.

He has to apply for a waiver. You know how that goes.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Collins seemed to lock on to his targets a few plays, although nobody really got open either.

Still a young player who I think will get better, but wouldn't be shock me to see Carney play this year

 

[Ttk.gman2]

I said Bigger arm, didn't say he was the better overall qb

I just don’t get why rush a true freshman out who just isn’t ready let him sit this year and learn.

Maybe if Rickie just isn’t good but I expect him to be better after practicing with the 1s this week.

 

[mustacheovich]

Lol it really is true, the backup QB is always the most popular guy on the team

 

[JeremyCuse]

I just don’t get why rush a true freshman out who just isn’t ready let him sit this year and learn.

Again I didn't say he'd be the starter for Duke. I said I wouldn't be shocked if he eventually took over. I think next week you may see why Collins was the backup

 

[Keger03]

We got a little too cute in the 4th trying to do the opposite of what everyone expected us to do offensively. Not a fair assessment of his game play abilities.

You'll be able to figure out pretty quickly who has good connections on this board. Usually a claim like Jeremy's is not made lightly here.
