Where does he end up? He’d be smart to go to a place like Wiscy…run a pro style offense…win a lot of games, maybe even the B1G West…show pro scouts that he’s matured. Thoughts?

Any teams close to the playoff picture that don't have a good returning QB would be my first guess. He is good enough to push an otherwise good team over the hump into playoff contention.

Portal busy these days with QBs ... OU and OSU already losing top recruits ...wondering if OSU loses another with Stroud looking set to start another 3 years there

Stroud won’t start 3 more years at OSU. If he is a redshirt FR this year he’ll likely only play 1 more year of college fball.

I'd like to see the coach that lost to Mel get to it. Gotta be MAJOR players in the portal world this year to avoid disaster next year.
You mean Schiano? Yeah, I agree. Berger is in Schiano's backyard and he missed out on this opportunity to land him in HS as well as transfer portal.

I'm very skeptical how Tucker is going to do in the long term if he just continues to have a team full of mercenaries. It will not be good for recruiting and to maintain chemistry in the locker room will tough. One one has had much luck maintaining that practice. We will see.

We need plenty of pieces that don't currently reside on our 7-5 roster. Let's start with O-linemen. I wouldn't have minded berger too, he can't be worse than our RBs

Berger was booted off the team in Wiscy. Not sure why but it would be a red flag for some.

Yeah, I think you missed the sarcasm in my post.

Fine, not berger. But i'm hoping Franklin is on the phone with a lot of portal guys. Our offensive line sucks....we could potentially use a seasoned WR, our backs played poorly, tons of attrition on the defense...

Yeah. I agree. It’s not what I would want for PSU.

Well, he is from Pheonix, AZ, so I would imagine some Southwest/West Coast teams may be in play. I would assume he only wants one year to show case his talent, so it's pretty much any place that will give him an opportunity to start, and they can let the younger QB talent develop.

Sounds like PSU no?

First let me say that he is a VERY talented QB and can create opportunities with or without a solid Oline. My biggest concern with him is rumored maturity Issues within the locker room.He was also ruled ineligible in his Senior year of High School for a school district code of conduct violation. IF…..he has grown up a bit….his game changing ability makes him a very interesting prospect. Living in Texas ….I have seen him play B12 ball 2x’s in person and his talent was obvious.My IF on him is a big IF….you just never know if and when a talent is going to mature. IF….you guess correctly….he could be a home run.

No to Rattler. He has a talented arm but cannot read a coverage to save his life.
