2015 returning QBs

[Faulkner475]

A not so interesting look at the top four returning QBs in each of the Power 5 conferences. Notable mainly for an omission in the ACC. Interestingly, this same writer pegged Tech as a team to get a hype boost from bowl season.

Keep it up media moguls. It's going to come back and bite you!

HUH ??? Well, it looks like once again we will have to prove them wrong, and Justin is just the man to do it.

What a joke leaving JT off the ACC list

 

[CobbTech]

Relax guys. I love JT as much as the next guy but those four are pretty darn good too.

The only one of those four I'd put in Thomas' class is Watson, and he's coming off ACL surgery. Sure Brissett, Kaaya, and Williams are talented. Justin Thomas was just named MVP of the Orange Bowl. He belongs on the list ahead of those guys, and it's not particularly close.

You beat me to it and Watson has yet to show a season's worth of durability, much less production and leadership.

But which of those 4 lead their team to the ACC championship and a super 6 bowl, plus a top 10 finish. Id take JT all day long

Here is what I want to see in the pre-season publications: 1. Phil Steele to pick us last in the Coastal;
2. GT's success last year was only because the Coastal was very weak;
3. The Orange Bowl win was because MSU didn't want to be there and the DC left;
4. The blue print for stopping this offense is well known;
5. Based on the recruiting rankings GT will never win 11 games again;
6. Justin Thomas cannot make it through a season running this offense.

That about does it.

You could add how unhappy CPJ is coaching at GT and this one dimensional O is not built for 3rd and long..

 

[cuttysark]

How could I forget those? My mistake. Or the best of all: If this offense was so good why don't more teams and the NFL use it?

 

[GlennW]

Paul Johnson thanks him for the slight...

 

[GTonTop88]

We only get in 3rd and long if WE want to. Otherwise we could just pound the B back all day long, but that would make for a boring game now wouldn't it.

That's just retarded. Looks like he took the passing yards list and took the Top 4 returning from that list. Taking a true frosh who couldn't play half the season and is coming off knee surgery over a RS-SO who has done nothing but shred teams. And Marquise Williams for crying out loud?? Where are the uncontrollable laughter emoticons?

With media recognition like this... JSmoove flying under the radar for the maxwell. If we are top 5 in offense, hes gotta get some sorta credit for the offense running so smoothly. Also think he hits 2000 in the air and 1000 on the ground atleast if Coach Cook does his job. I'm excited

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

By the end of the year at least two on their list will have been flops.

 

[GTBillyJosh]

Honestly, I'd rather keep expectations low. Makes watching a good season all the better. Plus... ditto what other people said about the other 4 guys being pretty good.

If GT continues with similar success this year, you'll see many college teams adopting facets of the offense, if not copying outright. The NFL will to a lesser extent.
