I'm confident we'll go after a 2017 JUCO QB, or at least we have that option so I'm not worried about our 2017 QB situation. Sure I think Mitch would help that out, but I'm more concerned about bringing in a Grad transfer if Montez isn't ready and Gerhke is actually our backup to Sefo, but if we don't bring one in I can only hope it means we are confident in Montez as a backup right now, I think if it's really about having someone to compete in 2017 then waiting for a 2017 JUCO or 2017 Grad transfer is a plenty reasonable option.
I laughed out loud too. #gallowshumor
I hope you are right.
I like this guy.
Busted out laughing at your avatar. rep.
Just wait until Sam Noyer comes in for an injured Montez and sets every conceivable Pac12 passing record in 2017.
I don't see one on the field now...except maybe Chido and Shay has the potential...possibly. To me, that's about it.
There are a lot of IFs out there for 2016, but Shay, Winfree, Chido, Thompson, Oliver, Gillam, Tupou, and potentially Drew Lewis could all be difference makers. You throw in the potential for Huntley, Julmisse and Bisharat and I think 2016 is MM's most talented team.
Difference makers or PAC-12 level talent? Let's start crawling before we sprint.
I think Chido, TT and Tupou are absolutely difference makers and IF Gillam stays healthy, I believe he is one as well. Winfree is an unknown and I think Shay is bordering on being a special player. Maybe I got a little over zealous with Lewis and Oliver, as they are both largely unproven, but I do believe Oliver can be a shut down corner at this level, which would put him on that list. Like I said, a lot of IFs.
Certainly players to be excited about, but outside of Chido, I wouldn't bet serious money on any of them making first or second team all PAC-12. Like you mentioned, a lot of IFs.
Just because they aren't top 1 or 2 players at their position in the Pac, doesn't mean they aren't difference makers. I would say being in the top 5-10, depending on the position, warrants that consideration.
Winfree was the #3 receiver on his Juco team, so not likely to be top two in the PAC12. Might we have too high of an expectation here?
I understand that Winfree was the #3 WR at Coffeyville, in terms of season statistics, but their #1 WR, Alfonso Onunwor, had one D1 offer and ended up signing with Idaho. Their #2 option, Cedrick Wilson, signed with Boise State, and neither of them were as highly rated by the recruiting services.
Somewhat can acknowledge your point but Juwann's offer list was not close to his rating. Juco ratings Are famously questionable. Most on here act like he's got a chance to be all-conference and his numbers at Juco and offer list are not indicative of that.
That's promising but I'm still surprised he wasn't recruited more vigorously. I'm hoping it's our gain, but I'm not yet ready to color the WR position as solid.
