[QUOTE="FlatsLander, post: 374153, member: 1566"] I hadn't seen anyone point this out before, so here goes. It's well known that while Taquon wasn't originally recruited as a QB, he played to the best of his ability and was able to make a some plays when we needed them. However, I think people are quick to forget that we had at least 3 QB prospects that should have been in line before him that didn't pan out. 1.) Matthew Jordan - Came to Tech in spring of 2014 (I believe). He was pegged to be the starter this year before his injury in the spring. I'm sure he would have progressed a lot from 2016 if he had had all of spring, summer, and fall camp to develop. 2.) Jaylend Ratliffe (sp?) - I think he was a fall 2014 freshman. Jaylend was injured before his senior year of high school and was not cleared to play college football. 3.) Christian Campbell - He might have been a fall 2015 freshmen, not sure. Christian would have been at the QB position to compete, but he broke his hand and was moved to DB, and never moved back. That all being said, I'm expecting one of the true QB recruits on the roster will pass Taquon and take over the starting position by next fall. [/QUOTE]
