Not until after spring ballDrat
I’m not even close to confident that we’re even kicking the tires on a quarterback, much less pursuing one/many seriously.
Guess I’ll believe it when I see it. Have there even been any rumblings?Not until after spring ball

So a FCS/JUCO kid. Ok. Sure. UghGuess I’ll believe it when I see it. Have there even been any rumblings?
We still need a capable backup even if smothers is the next Vince Young.I'm okay with waiting to see how Smothers looks in spring ball. It kind of says they like what they have seen.
I've heard there is a divide within the coaching staff around whether or not to take a transfer QB this year - a few coaches have been pushing for it while others (one of which makes the final decision) are against it.
If SF doesn't see the need to bring in a transfer QB to compete for the starting spot (after our QB play in 2019 and 2020) then he's probably going to get run out of here after next season.I've heard there is a divide within the coaching staff around whether or not to take a transfer QB this year - a few coaches have been pushing for it while others (one of which makes the final decision) are against it.
The day AM is no longer on the roster, whether via transfer or exhaustion of eligibility, will be a great day for NU football.Is it possible Frost has learned from his mistake with Gebbia in the sense that he doesn't want to risk AM transferring so he is not going to go after a transfer QB until the deadline to transfer in regards to the eligibility date has passed? Just spit balling, and maybe by that time some QB's become available and he'd entertain the idea then? Of course then the risk is the best available transfer QB's are off the market...I'm just wondering if there has to be a reason like that because anyone can see we need another capable guy behind center.
Maybe he wants to wait to see if we're Ok with the 6 QB's we have already?
You sure you're not thinking of teams that use a 2 QB rotation and the saying "when you have 2 QBs you don't have any"?Who was the NFL coach who said "when you have 3 QB's you really don't have any QB's"?? Now add 3 more to that equation...
I wanna say the coach who said that was talking about Detroit at the time and Rodney Pete was one of the QB's but i'm kinda guessin on that

How is it great to lose an athletic QB with pin point accuracy and is a great leader?
It was communicated to me that Lubick/Held wanted to bring-in a transfer QB but Frost/Verduzco did not.This is an interesting post.
How would you weigh the opinions of the Assistants between OC & QB? Guess it doesn't matter 'cause HC will break the tie.
Shocker if true 🙄It was communicated to me that Lubick/Held wanted to bring-in a transfer QB but Frost/Verduzco did not.

I can't see any coach thinking depth at a position is badCould be...I want to say Madden was the OG on that phrase, whatever it was.
Agreed. While I admit Adrian still has potential, the body of evidence is not trending favorably on this one.I feel like behind the scenes Frost in going all in on Martinez. I think that's a very dangerous move. If AM has a break out Senior campaign the way that Burrow did at LSU then Frost will look like a genius. However if AM has another (3 in a row) mediocre at best type year where we cant throw the ball down the field and it costs us games....then unfortunately that might be the end of Frost.

It's nice to know Iowa lives inside your head Mr. headcase.*Petras
did you include 'most QB losses' in AM's records? if not, make that 14 NU records.I like the argument that we already have 6 QBs, why do we need 7? Here is our current 6:
Adrian Martinez, JR, 3 year starter, holds 13 Nebraska records
Logan Smothers, Redshirt FR, never played. What I have heard is he is not much of a passer. 4-star recruit.
Heinrich Haarberg, FR. Not particularly highly regarded as a 3-star recruit.
Matt Masker, SO walk on. Never played. No star recruit.
Brayden Miller, Redshirt FR walk on. Never played. No star recruit.
Jarrett Synek, FR walk on. No star recruit.
If, or rather when AM gets hurt, we are in serious trouble.

Won't happen!If SF doesn't see the need to bring in a transfer QB to compete for the starting spot (after our QB play in 2019 and 2020) then he's probably going to get run out of here after next season.
It's really more about seeing who is on the transfer market than how Smothers looks. God willing he looks like everything I've hoped since the day I hopped on the Logan Smothers Hype Train (woo woo).I'm okay with waiting to see how Smothers looks in spring ball. It kind of says they like what they have seen.
It is Not easy landing a transfer QB and especially (1) that can come in and play. Why?Kind of crazy to say we have 6 QB's as an argument for not getting a transfer, when 3 of the 6 are walk on's. The staff said at one time that they wanted 5 scholarship QB's, right now we have 3 and only 1 has ever taken a live snap in a college football game.
We will be fine if we can land a four star in this next recruiting class.Frost is holding to his word, wait until after spring, give the current roster QB's a chance, then see if a QB is needed (which I think we need, more for depth than anything else).
our history with 4-star QBs is.... less than stellarWe will be fine if we can land a four star in this next recruiting class.
We need to get back to landing Top Rated QBs.
