I think that tanner lee is far from excited. Zero chance he starts if he sticks around. Frost is not gonna do the Mike Riley method of scrapping his offense And adapting to tanner lees skillset ala Thomas arm-inaccurate.

Lee's not going to start, but he can make all the throws in Frost's offense. He's an excellent option as a backup qb if the starter goes down. In the end, it's still football and it's not THAT big of a difference between a spread passing game and pro style passing game.
Are you kidding us? Its all about speed and quickness. Lee is slow like Zac Taylor. Both are wonderful passers but we need that 5th dimension of a running qb.
I respectfully disagree
While Lee definitely has an arm and he showed great toughness, he isnt a fit for this offense
This offense is designed for QBs that are great split second decision makers and many of the plays have a QB run threat as part of the play. With Lee in there the Defense can completely ignore the QB run portion of the play.
The play concepts put a defense in a real bind which allows for a lot of seperation for our receivers. How many of Lees throws had to be EXTREMELY accurate this year- because the coverage was right there. HCSFs offense creates open receivers- which are EASIER passes to complete. They dont have to be NFL pinpoint strikes.
That just throws everything off in a well designed and proven offense. You only have x amount of time to prepare a team- you dont want to have to put in a bunch of plays all of the QBs and team has to learn- because of the lack of talent of one player- when there are viable options at QB that may be better fits for the offense. AND Im not convinced even the basic spread plays that have a handoff option - Lee will execute well. Hes great in shorts with no defense- when it comes time to read live defenses and make split second decisions- not so much.
Remember this is also a very fast offense with lots of formations, options and motions. It requires good pre snap and post snap reads. NU doesnt want to add in more on top of that for in what in my mind is an unproven QB-. He hasnt proven that he can consistently make good decisions in real games. The delta between all the QBs when it comes to this offense- is not large- there is little upside to making a bunch of accommodations for Lee.
We dont know where this will shake out at QB- will be able to say in Spring ball- . It will be very evident if Gebbia, POB or Wilson can do this. Bunch should be an able emergency back up and then you add Martinez in the Fall and redshirt him for the 2019 season.
Expectations are very low and we have a tough schedule. Now is the time to rip off the bandaid and build for the future. Get to 6-6 and win the bowl game- the next year its 8 wins and then 2020 sets up for a breakout year with more of HCSF's kids.

Isn’t this said after every firing? And before people go to “yeah, but this time it’s different”. Time will tell and it won’t be soon.
There will be a fair amount of attrition, especially with seniors who do not crack the
2 or 3 deep. No disrespect to these players but they will not be fits or their size, speed &
position may not be relevant any longer.
King DE not a div1 player senior, Tanner Lee fish out of water, Williams coaches son, Darlington medical,
Newell ?, Snyder TE do not need 6 scholarship TEs, there will be others. We have too many Olinemen,
too many smallish LBs, our RBs do not have break away speed, some players won’t like the physical
nature going forward. Attrition will be in 8 to 10 range by the time fall camp rolls around.
The roster needs some turnover, happens when u have coaching changes, I am sure it will be
handled correctly by our coaches. Tough business, tough decisions, too much dead weight.

I'm going to throw this out and see what sticks. I'm not always sold that getting all these great recruits is necessarily the best move. Getting the best "team" players are. I cringe a little bit every time I hear some highly "star" rated player tweeting all this stuff for attention. I trust Scott to see the difference. I'm not sure I trusted the last staff to see the difference.

Yeah we have no need for those high rated guys. Osborne never had them, right?
I hear you, but check out the playoff teams and where they landed with recruiting rankings
. Or the top 10 for that matter. You won’t like the answer. 3 heart kids hasn’t worked in 18 years and counting.
Actually, the drugs you get with a colonoscopy are really fine ! Can't wait ! Due for another one in 2018 !!!
If it's with the small scope that doctors use it's not too bad......anything larger is not only embarrassing but painfull. GBR
