AUbritt 611 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I don't see anyone who is worried. Someone is worried about Arkansas .... Folks will always find something to worry about. I don't think anyone's too worried about our current QB situation, though. Now LB and DL, yes -- folks are worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yeah, really not sure who blueridge was directing that at. Certainly hope it wasn't me. I am guilty, however, of contributing to a broader threadjack. If we get Jackson, I'm guessing it's not because we're "settling" for him, but instead because he's just better- or, perhaps more accurately, better suited for our offense- than the recruiting services suggest.

Yeah, I was just trying to redirect. It will be interesting to see if we pursue Jackson at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburn4ever 1,266 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I still believe we need to sign 2 QB's for 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUbritt 611 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 For me it would depend on who else we can get. We're getting low on spots and we need so DL badly. If we get Ivey and perhaps still Javon, I'd rather have both of them than another QB this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autan 737 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I think we're in good shape with several talented QBs in 2016 class. Not signing another one this year may actually help us with next years QB recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of room to meet all the staff's needs for the class and have spots left over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFDTiger80 790 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 At this point I want to save QB slots for next years QB class. We will have a better chance with elite QB's if we do this, because Marshall will be gone, and we most likely will only have 3 QB's on scholly: JJ, SW, and TQ (hopefully healthy). The road to PT will be seen as less than if we took a second QB this year. Plus, IMO, we should only go after Elite level QB's from our coaches perspectives now. With our offense, we should have great options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 most likely will only have 3 QB's on scholly: JJ, SW, and TQ (hopefully healthy) 2-maybe 3 deep= shallow we should only go after Elite level QB's from our coaches perspectives now. With our offense, we should have great options. Exactly. If our coaches perceive a guy to have a chance to be elite in our offense, they should go after him. The day they let the recruiting services do their scouting for them is the day they've given up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gman87 398 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I suspect that FSU will have trouble keeping all 3 of their QB commits this year. Plus, if NM and JJ light it up this year and we continue to get elite '16 WRs, this years QBs and next will take note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Though we want the Elite level QB's, we seem to wait and wait before we offer them. Then before you know it, they've committed else and we are out of the running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With JJ, White and Queen waiting in the wings, I don't think J. Smith even gets a sniff at QB. JJ will have two years AU experience on him and White one. Then factor in that Smith will have only 2 years eligibility left and there seems no reason to even waste practice snaps with Smith at QB. WR, on the other hand, should be wide open if we lose two to the NFL as predicted.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
