ellitor 33,091 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 So we are seriously considering putting 5 or 6 QBs on scholarship? That seems legit. We have depth issues in a few key spots, yet we have 5 or 6 QBs... It won't be about depth @ QB if we do. It will be about Gus not feeling the current QBs give him the best chance to win.

Depth doesn't mean jack if it's not quality depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn2oregon 0 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I just don't see how the kids would want to stick around through that. I know that wouldn't change our recruiting numbers this season, but it certainly counts towards the overall scholarship count. This makes me think about Flex, and what he went through. It just seems that's too many for that particular position. I understand it would be based off CGM not thinking any of our current players or commitments can carry the rock as QB1, but what does that say about CGM, his recruiting decisions, and player development? I have NEVER questioned ANY of those traits of CGM until just now. I mean, if he doesn't think JF3 can do it, why even sign him? It just doesn't make any sense to me.

Mikey 16,579 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Exactly. Depth doesn't mean jack if it's not quality depth. May I quote you the next time someone claims that we have plenty of linebackers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the quality that matters. Other than Tre we really don't know if we have quality. Not trying to stir up the LB conversation but... E you're right, us as fans don't know if we have quality. It is possible that our coaches feel good about the going lbs on the roster. Might not be the case just suggesting it could be. Me personally, I think there are a few that we haven't seen much out of yet that could be quality contributors next season.

doc4aday 1,887 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I cannot find the 2016 recruiting class information. It used to be right under the recruiting caption. This gave a lot of information about each player. I am still trying to figure out a lot of things with the change over to the new format.
