What is up with this Landon Duckworth guy?

Look, I know SC needs a QB desperately. If Lanorris doesn't come back, Shane is going to have to sign someone in the portal because I just don't think Cutter or Air lead us to anything but a 3 win season next year (even worse than this years 4 win season). Maybe Cutter ends up being a good QB, but probably not in 2026.

But as much as we need QBs, is this Landon guy a good person to have on the team? I know nothing about him as far as character but I do know he seems to flip more than waffles at Waffle House. Someone on another post said "Landon may not make his decision today?" That statement made me laugh. The guy has supposedly already made his "decision" about four damn times.

He's weighing the bribes being offered to him.

But honestly, is he the answer for next years team? He would be a true freshman.

Re Cutter:

We’ve seen him take what, 6-7 snaps? And already he’s pegged as a 3-win guy. Why?

People said the same about Sellers in 2023 after seeing 6-7 snaps.

For what it’s worth, Woods looked pretty decent to me. Poised, gets the ball out quickly and on target. Right now I’d take him over Sellers without hesitation.

Agreed. I was impressed.

God could be throwing the pigskin for us and it would fail to impress this crowd.

I've liked what I've seen of Woods.

I remember a LOT of hype about Sellers after 6 or 7 snaps. One pass against Furman had people drooling on this site.

But we have to have something to whine and cry about.

Beamer said 2026 gonna be different. Trust the process and if we don’t get an OC we won’t need a QB

Is he worth it in the long run? Who knows? But this is the norm going forward for any quality recruit.

I’m in Anderson and saw Wood’s a lot in high school. He can fling it and run as well. I think he could get the job done if the other pieces are in place.
He has a nice touch. Very catchable ball. Doesn’t throw 1000 mile per hour passes
