For young QBs a lot depends on their coaching and supporting cast. Recent history where KOC has resurrected the careers of QBs thought to be busts reflects that. I have to wonder what a guy like Trubisky could have been in San Fran.QB is always a gamble, you have to shoot your shot to hit
Vikings wanted him as a safetyBears take a white corner.. BAHAHA
Good luck with that.
We've had 4 1st round picks over the last 21 years (none over the past 12), and the Buckeyes had 4 in the first 11 picks of the draft yesterday. That stat pretty much tells the story of how NU compares to top programs without even looking at W-Ls.That's insane. We've had four players drafted in the last two years. Even schools like SDSU are getting players drafted in the first round. Rhule needs to be shown the door, or we'll be stuck in mediocrity for perpetuity.
I will say it again, but it is shocking what NIL has done to the SEC.
They cry about trying to get more teams in the playoffs
They can't win a title in FB or even make the final anymore.
They no longer get the most guys drafted in the first round.
In less than 5 years the change is shocking. It really goes to show how amazing their cheating was before NIL and how lame the other teams were when it came to cheating (They should have all been doing it)
As Tom noted a few times, winning is hard. It would seem logical to deduce that Cignetti is a better coach than Day. That said, Cignetti hit on the most important position with a senior experienced QB. Gignetti doesn’t get to the tourney without Mendoza IMO.How did Ohio State NOT win the national championship this year with all that talent? Talk about underperforming coaches.
Money alone isn’t going to keep 60-70 top college players happy. What Cignetti did was remarkable but I don’t see it happening again soon.It definitely did feel like it was on full display last night.
That said, I'll be shocked if we don't see it level itself back out over the next couple years.
