I do. But among them, you have to choose the right one.You get the feeling there are alwayas going to be multiple previously very highly rated H.S. QB's in the portal, forever?
Without doing a lot of research, I think overall, QBs transferring to different schools have shown them to have better seasons at their new school.McNamara would be pretty interesting
not too often a QB transfers in conference, but also not unprecedented
Going to be hard to get an experienced, game ready QB with CT in the fold100% want CT back, but there is definitely concern over his arm injury and how much he'll be able to do during the offseason. I almost feel bad for bitching about how many times he underthrew guys deep. Not easy to play with a labrum injury. Love the toughness.
There isn't a need for additional QB transfers. There is a need for the QBs on the roster to play better. All of them suck. Need better coachingSome intriguing names on the list…I do wonder what Rhule can do with the current guys on the roster…I’m a big fan of the potential for Haarberg and Torres…Rhule will have the luxury of being patient with a QB if he goes with a less experienced guy

NU is not going to beat anybody any good with the backups currently on the roster.There isn't a need for additional QB transfers. There is a need for the QBs on the roster to play better. All of them suck. Need better coaching
Yep, agree. It's weird having confidence that the new staff will actually handle this situation competently. No doubt they'll upgrade if they like what's available.Going to be hard to get an experienced, game ready QB with CT in the fold
Similar to last year - if Martinez stays at NU - CT isn’t at NU
CT injury is rough and puts the staff in a difficult spot
I looked at all 3 years Rhule was at Baylor and the way he managed the roster. It was an ever-changing position group as each year passed.Yep, agree.

I looked at all 3 years Rhule was at Baylor and the way he managed the roster. It was an ever-changing position group as each year passed. When I get done with the compilation, I will post it to see what others think. He is not a static guy.
He also consistently carried 19 OL whereas NU has carried 25. So something has to give. He also settled on 15 WRs whereas NU has had 21. Even at TE, he was at 5 and NU carries 12 on their roster.
Rhule also had mostly OLmen that are listed from 6'3" to 6'5". OL that was 6'6" and 6'7" were only 2 and 1 total in Year 3.
Along the defensive front, he did seem to alter the position groups from year to year may be due to the style of play in the Big 12. And he started in Year 1 with only 6 DTs and in Year 3 he had moved that total to 10. It's likely his Big Ten totals on DL will increase to meet the demands of the running teams in the conference.
Is there any other way?
..... dare I ask?Is there any other way?
I have a spreadsheet on forum members. You're in the "m" section. LOL

He would be a great option. He's struggled recently with learning two different positions, but he showed a lot of good stuff his freshman year when he was focused solely on the qb position. Plus, he'd instantly be the fastest guy on the team and could change positions if qb didn't work out.
Don't argue with himNU is not going to beat anybody any good with the backups currently on the roster.
Thanks for the suggestion but it's not really an argument since he doesn't have a leg to stand on.Don't argue with him
I think it is often called maturity. Some of these kids need a dose of humility after reading all the clippings and they often get it their first year. I don't blame some of them for wanting to hit the reset at a different school. Some also find out things are not what they thought they would be with coaches. A QB, probably more than any other position has to deal with many variables in coaches.Without doing a lot of research, I think overall, QBs transferring to different schools have shown them to have better seasons at their new school.
DeVitto from Syracuse to Ilinois. Nix from Auburn to Oregon. Williams from OU to USC (a great year at OU and an even greater year at USC). Rattler loses their job at OU and moves to South Carolina.
Herndon from Va Tech? to Tennessee and monster year prior to the injury. Daniels from U Ga to W Va and decent season. Thompson from Tx to NU for a solid year.
Rhule’s emphasis on O linemen is athleticism over high school size. A story I read said that he was known for developing undersized athletic high school kids who could move. I’ve said for years that we need to try to build OTs from high school TEs.I looked at all 3 years Rhule was at Baylor and the way he managed the roster.

The size of his OLmen at Baylor was on the smaller side, but Rhule said as much in his analytics piece that was on here.Rhule’s emphasis on O linemen is athleticism over high school size.

I was just thinking that the other day... Man, walker was fun to watchI know we are talking about transfer QBs, but Pop Watson is committed to come in next year. He reminds me a lot of Rhule’s stud QB at Temple, PJ Walker.
Rhule has great connections out there. It’s not a foregone conclusion that Watson will decommitI know we are talking about transfer QBs, but Pop Watson is committed to come in next year. He reminds me a lot of Rhule’s stud QB at Temple, PJ Walker.
Great points.The size of his OLmen at Baylor was on the smaller side, but Rhule said as much in his analytics piece that was on here.
I remember kids like Travis Toline from Wahoo who played for the Huskers.
The big kid in high school, small for an OL coming out of high school, but got bigger, and had great feet even as a low post guy in basketball.
Not an Outland type, but solid and he could move.
Even now, of the recruits, the Sledge kid seems tailor-made for the type of OL that Rhule looks for.
Other than the 10 or so who we watched at NU, the kids that have been on the pine, but MIGHT be able to really move, could start to make a move up the depth chart. We shall see.
Yellow Jacket QB Jeff Sims (#6 on this list) announced his intent to transfer yesterday
Don’t you figure we would want some backup’s in this offense other than Smothers and Purdy.Sims is visiting this weekend. Wonder if that means Casey is gone.

We know nothing about Torres either..
Sounds like he'd fit right in hereSims is visiting this weekend. Wonder if that means Casey is gone.
Realize that but we need other QB’s other than CT even if he remains..I don't think Sims would transfer here to be the backup when he only has 2 years of eligibility left. Unless he'd be willing to take a redshirt year.
these QBs aren’t transferring to sit.Realize that but we need other QB’s other than CT even if he remains..
It's obvious Smothers, Purdy, Haarberg aren't capable of doing the job. Also, with CT, he may be having to have another surgery on his shoulder. No guarantee that type of surgery will heal in time.these QBs aren’t transferring to sit.
