Looks like Van Buren is out tonight for S.Florida and Luke ChromeHook will start. Didn't ChromeHook play for MSU some time ago? Name sounds familiar. Memphis will have to win out if they want to win the AAC Championship. Gonna be a big chore IMO.

It's Luke Kromenhoek, and he was on our team, I believe, last year or maybe the year before. Not sure why he never worked out. I seem to remember he played in a game or two and was backup to Leach's guy who transferred to Oregon. I may just be having a senior moment about the dates.

Last year. He’s not that good but much better than any backup we have now.

He finished the bowl game for us last year when we all thought Kamario would never play football again

So why did we lose him as our backup to be a backup at an AAC team? I'd understand transferring to be a starter and it couldn't be money...

These idiots already know the answer. Don’t feed the trolls

Makes me feel a little better. Can't blame anyone for transferring bc they want to actually play. Selfishly would rather him have been our backup now starter obviously.
Let’s also flash back to last season when so many on this message board were flipping tables that State was paying so much for a back up QB. Funny how things change.

Krom didn't do his homework when transferring here. He should have known Taylor was the fan favorite and lock for QB1.

Krom transferred out of FSU (probably his biggest mistake) when they signed the Castellanos guy out of the portal. He didn't want to wait for PT there either.

Difference was last year we were paying two backup QBs a lot of money. You need a backup but if we’re spending a lot for a #3 QB, that’s not a good allocation of resources.

I wasn’t flipping tables at us last year but was laughing at Ole Miss when they had Sanders and Howard. Lack of a quality backup is awful but we aren’t the 89 49ers with the luxury of paying Steve Young to ride the pine in case stuff goes down. It’s a balancing act for sure but can you imagine the melt if we paid a backup 1 million and he sucked too. I mean what did DJ Edamame get paid at FSU and look at what he did.

Taylor had zero experience going into last season. It’s well worth the money to have someone who’s had at least a little time playing college ball.

He signed with FSU out of HS. Transferred here for one year to back up Shapen and Taylor.
We didn’t have a player or for that matter a QB that transfered to Oregon. And no the only “leach”QB that transfered was Robinson when we hired Barbay to Baylor and Parson to Austin Peay.

The saying goes that the second most important player on the team is the backup quarterback. Look at NFL teams that have quality backups (Seahawks) and those who don't (Eagles).
