There's no doubt in my mind that Allar might be the starter come Kick-off '22

Sorry for the snark, but you're not saying anything. You're sure he might be the starter?

I'm not sure how you can go from no doubt to might, but I'll go out on a limb and say there is about 0% chance he starts the opener.

Will probably have a timeshare at QB like Michigan this year. The only difference we won’t make the playoff.

Unless Clifford is hurt when the season opens no way he's the starter game 1. Not saying he should or shouldn't be, just that he has no chance unless the big red dog is hurt.

This is fine as long as Clifford is the outright better option to start the season after a wide open competition. However, if Franklin anoints Clifford the starter based on experience alone without the young guys getting a fair shake, it will be a long year and someone, or several, may transfer. I admit, I was disappointed that Villeaux didn’t get more playing time in the bowl game.

I’ll throw one more big question into the mix. Does Franklin go after Caleb Williams?

What if Clifford and Veilleux both get injured before the season starts? The chances that happens is greater than 0%.

What fantasy land do you live in to think he would consider playing for this team with the porous o-line and ineffective running backs…
Ha. Ha. It’s a conversation topic. I don’t realistically think he would consider PSU at this point, but it sure would make things interesting. I think he ends up following Lincoln Riley to USC.

I guess you majored in prognostication an the university of Nostradamus.
I'm surprised that they haven't won any National Championships. They know what play you are going to run and what your defensive alignment will be.

Buddy of mine is convinced that Clifford will be in the portal come June, especially if PSU is on campus all semester.

Okay, but if that’s the case why wait until June? (I understand you’re merely the messenger.)

End of term, spring game over...before 7 on 7 workouts in summer. Let's see how BW game goes in April. If Allar and Pribula light it up, my buds prediction may gain some weight...

Let me start with Villeaux should have been in the bowl game earlier than he was. I actually thought the o-line held their own during the bowl game and gave Clifford the time he needed to make plays. I will say it again and again. I believe Sean has regressed over the past few years. He cannot make reads, he doesn't go through his progressions, and if he isn't hitting a deep fade, he is running out of the pocket and scattered to make a play. I think Sean thinks he is better than he is, and PSU fans are so reserve that they don't want to let go. Throw Allar to the wolves, let him take over the show. It is time for Sean to go focus on his Quarterback application and teach younger players how to be a QB on the iPhone. I think he needs to move on to his life work and lets give some new blood a shot. It can't get any worse than what we have seen these past few years!

I also think Clifford thinks he is better than he is.

If you believe the coaches and their compete for the position spiel, Beau Pribula might be the QB next year.

Here’s the deal with me……who ever is the back up needs to be prepared to play in case of injury etc.
What happened this past season was inexcusable ……not having a back up prepared to take a snap!
