Is Clifford a 'true' Div. I quarterback?

[TheGlovStillRules]

My vote was for you to just stop it. And that’s just not about QB’s . Stop your campaign of terror against sharks , , alligators , lightning ⚡️ whatever else triggers your primal fears about life. Psychiatrists are doing wonderful things these days, I’m positive that somewhere Medicare has a 24/7/365 day plan.

You forgot off-trail skiing sir!

 

[TheGlovStillRules]

Don’t bother. Have a good day.

That's a shame Jim.

Being cantankerous is no way to go through life sir.

Have a good day.

LionJim - You nailed it. Despite this poll being infantile, Glov has shown repeatedly that he simply needs attention. He gets that attention by stirring the pot regarding topics that will annoy a certain portion of the board (e.g., Philadelphia). It's best not to take his antics seriously.

Oh please.

Discussion is good food and it is what this board is all about.

Stir the pot?

Some things are contraversial.

No harm there.

Ewers stated when he reclassified that he was prepared to redshirt to learn the system and make a million dollars in the process. He might have thought he could get in a game or 2 and still keep his RS. Keep in mind Eleven Warriors generational QB should still be in high school. Ewers will be fine. McCord and or Miller will transfer portal and as long as Ewers gets over his rumored homesickness he will probably be #2 next season and Stroud may leave after next season.

The case to start Allar next season (with some Ewers comparisons since you brought him up)
- Allar is enrolling early as is Pribula instead of reclassifying at the last minute to enroll in the summer, after the 3 other 4 and 5 star QBs battled it out in the spring. Allar should be prepared to start as a true frosh in game 1 against Purdue.
- He does not have to be a Trevor Lawrence (comes along every 5 to 10 years). Matthew Strafford started as a true freshman after he enrolled early. Peyton Manning eventually started as a true freshman. Hack won the starting job for game 1 and he did not show up until summer. Hack was NOT ruined by starting early. He was ruined during his sophmore and junior seasons because he was sacked too many times.

You bring in a portal QB similar to Stonehands Bowman's kid that was just looking for a chance to compete so he chose Michigan over Penn State. You stay away from the Rattlers that will want to be promised a starting job. You want to find a Plan B QB to compete with Allar and Pribula in the spring. I like Clifford. If he came back for 2022, it would probably set the program back 1 year. I fully expect Allar to be starting by midseason and Clifford coming back guarantees that does not happen unless injury. Clifford would be at Trace level for Franklin's loyalty, if he came back next season.

Yep!

He is the 21st ranked QB on ESPN site. We all figured this season hinged greatly on Clifford's health and performance. If he hadn't gotten hurt vs Iowa, he would be ranked higher, maybe top 15. We would be 8-1 right now. With a average running game to go along with a completely healthy Clifford, we might have beaten Ohio State as well. It only takes an injury or two to derail a promising season.

Where's the stat: Over-thrown balls to WR's?

Seriously, that needs to be considered.

Don't they count WR 'drops'?? I'm sure the staff does which may also help the staff choose who starts.

Absolutely. Discussion is good food, but creating a poll whether or not Clifford is a D1 QB is not creating substantive discussion. I am not a Clifford defender. I just think that your poll is cheap.

No harm intended Glove. Just my opinion.

 

[Alphalion75]

Yes. Penn State is a Division 1 school and Clifford is our QB....so it is true....he is a Division QB.

Fair enough.

Thank you for the response.

True dat!

 

[Lavarmav]

Just simply vote your conscious.

No, he is false. He is faking being a quarterback while really a div 2 punter

That's a shame Jim.

Lol, I’m the least cantankerous person you’d ever meet. But you be you.

A more important question. Is "Glove" a true division one fan?

- Allar is enrolling early as is Pribula instead of reclassifying at the last minute to enroll in the summer, after the 3 other 4 and 5 star QBs battled it out in the spring. Allar should be prepared to start as a true frosh in game 1 against Purdue.
- He does not have to be a Trevor Lawrence (comes along every 5 to 10 years). Matthew Strafford started as a true freshman after he enrolled early. Peyton Manning eventually started as a true freshman. Hack won the starting job for game 1 and he did not show up until summer. Hack was NOT ruined by starting early.

Well said about setting the program back 1 year. I look at it as what is the benefit of a 3-4 loss PSU team with Clifford at QB as compared to a 3-4 loss PSU team with a freshman QB? At this point, I would much rather take the freshman, let them getting meaningful game time reps, and let them train from the start of their college career under MY's offensive scheme/vision. Heck, you never know - that freshman may even win a game or two that PSU is projected to take an L. I think Clifford is a good kid, I wish him the best - I just think his time is up and him staying would have no benefit on the overall future of the program.

Clifford is turrible.

What does that say about Roberson?

 

[Quint526]

Oh please junior.

We already had this conversation. Are you that desperate for someone to notice you?
