Most of these guys were " the guy" in high school, all except Tucker Gleason. When he transferred to plant he had to battle EIGHT guys for the starting job. If there is a high school coach in the country who knows QB talent its Robert Weiner, after all Aaron Murray tore us apart for 4 years. He is the least flashy guy, may not have the best arm in the room, but has proven he make good decisions and can be factor in the run game when needed. I would compare Gleason to a more athletic Jake Fromm, and I think a clean game managing quarterback is ultimately what we need. My money is for him to ruffle some feathers this season and when he gets his opportunity think hell take advantage

No one holds anything against Justin Thomas. He was a high end QB for GT and won the freaking Orange Bowl. The problem for GT football is we had no one to replace him so we’ve spent 3 seasons without a true P5 QB which is a huge reason we had a change in staffs. We now have 3 freshmen and a sophomore to find 1 legit P5 QB. Hopefully, we have 4 but I’ll be happy with 1 but really hoping we have 2.

College football is not hard to figure out. The team that wins most of the time wins the line of scrimmage and has a play making QB. Remember the Orange Bowl? Our OLine owned the trenches and Thomas went nuts as did Days and Laskey. That’s what Bama and Clemson do every year- dominant lines and play making QB’s. It’s gonna take time, but Collins and Key know the formula and are aggressively working to fix the lines and QB play.

All the qbs that were to replace JT were injured.

Back to the current topic, I think it's Yates or Sims.

Lol, as if anyone can name all the schools in the ACC. Outside of Clemson, no one cares.

Also
USC
UCLA
Stanford
Cal
AZ
ASU
Oregon
OSU (Where Stansbury came from)
WSU
WU
Colorado
Utah
The ACC can’t really beat it chest over them.

Name any of these in the last 3 years that made the NCAA Basketball Tournament without having to go through a play-in game.

Hell yes, I certainly could. I became passionate about college football in the 60s and can rattle off the members of the OLD major conferences including the 1960s era Pac 8, Big 8, Big 10 (when it was 10), ACC, SEC, and the very much missed Southwest conference. When we were "Independents", the list of independent schools in the standings would have made a very formidable conference in its own right. We played one hell of a schedule when we were independent too, much more interesting overall than the current ACC slate, it's just that the TV money made it impossible to compete without that tie-in.

(Speaking of the PAC-12) It’s not remembering their members that matters...it’s remembering how long ago those teams mattered that matters.

Easy litmus test: if you’re one of the younger folks on this board, you wouldn’t remember the PAC-12 mattering.

I believe the ATL comes out on Wednesday’s right?

If I were to guess, we will see either 2 or 4 names on that list for the QB position. I’m not sure who if it’s just two, but I don’t think they’ll have 3 and leave one off.
