Mike Wright transfer qb

Sadly, Sirmones was murdered in 2016.

Yes, unfortunately, I do recall that now. I remembered something happened but forgot exactly what.

I'm not sure if Will can throw the ball down the field or not because I don't remember seeing him try. Is that because of the way the offense was designed (keep is safe / ball control) or everyone knew not to go past where Will could throw? There were times when he showed decent velocity on intermediate passes. Has anyone ever seee Will really just fling it to see how far he can throw.

This either had to do with Will's lack of downfield passing ability OR our WRs inability to get separation going downfield. Gardner Minshew and Anthony Gordon threw down the field much more at Washington State under Leach than Rogers has so far in the same offense at MSU. Even in the AR you have to be able to hit a deep shot here or there to keep the defensive backs from creeping up and totally crowding the area 10 to 15 yards past the LOS. Believe I heard on the T&L podcast this morning that our offense in 2022 dropped nearly 50 yards/game on average from what it had done in 2021 which is very disappointing. I knew the offensive numbers had regressed a bit but I didn't realize by that much. A decent part of that responsibility has to fall on Will's shoulders although without Charles Cross he did face more pressure this past season.

Wright at this point is a warm body. If he's the starter next Fall then Will's either injured or dead.

In the air raid no doubt. With more emphasis on running....not so sure. I couldn't care less who starts or plays the most. If it's Will......great.

Just asking, wasn't Mike Wright the Vandy starter when they beat KY and FL and put up 27 points against South Carolina?

Wright played in all three, just not 100% of the game vs SC. UK/UF, yes.

I hope there is no real interest in Mike Wright. I was at the Vanderbilt game in Nashville last year and he was one of the worst college quarterbacks I’ve ever seen.

Well he was the primary QB in Vandy's wins over Florida and a team that bear MSU ...(Kentucky)

If you consider 117 net yards from the QB position at App State and -38 net yards at CMU an "emphasis on running" for the QB then I'm not sure what to tell you. Will doesn't have to have a strong arm to hand the ball off.

We'll run more, sure. The QB won't have much, if anything, to do with it.

It sure won't with Will.

I'm not opposed to tight ends at all, just explaining the genesis of my comment.

I was here after all...

Damn, Kendall was a big ol boy.

Apparently we will bring in one more P5 transfer QB in May to compete for the starting job. Rogers has a head start, but there’s no guarantee he comes out the starter in August. If this was a 7-on-7 league, maybe. Parson is coming off of an injury, so don’t count on him for 2023.

If you watch ApState qb , he rolls,out a lot , throws on the run a lot and is a pretty good athlete. Not just throwing stationary out of the shotgun.

Speaking of tight ends, Ryland Goede will be visiting this weekend. Would be an awesome addition if we can land him
