His first week will most likely be a shock. Might take a second to get used to throwing to our guys with FBS type speed at receiver.

I’m sure he’ll be great for us but I watched his film and man he’s playing with and against some low level guys. School looked like it could’ve been a JV team in the state of Vermont!

Seattle won the Super Bowl and is a top 15 defense all time in my opinion and they were basically a Base Dime Defense. Used Dime personnel more than anyone in history and was very stout against the run. So we’re going to see it a lot more. I think that boils down to recruiting. Getting tough Linebackers who can cover and Nickels who can tackle.

I agree with everything you said until Illinois State L. Equally on offense. Way too many turnovers/zero point outcomes inside the 10 yard line.

Montana State Defensive Coordinator leaving + NDSU potentially going mountain west seems like things that favor us greatly moving forward.

I agree with you man. If I was 20 I’m taking the cash. Like I said before, in this shit economy you have Harvard guys that are unemployed. It’s not 20 years ago. Rooting for the kid and hope he has a Cam Ward trajectory, that would look really nice for Plough and serve as a nice recruiting pitch. I’ll absolutely be tuning into a Wazzu game or two pulling for the kid.

Will be an interesting QB battle.

We just need a big back for red zone and short yardage. It was a weakness of ours once Vargas got injured. I’m thinking 8 carries a game for a power back.

The degree argument was great in the late 90s and early 2000s but the job market is shit. You can be a Harvard grad and have a really tough time. Take the money..

We have been pretty quiet. We have some really big holes to fill and I’m not seeing the offers go out. Edge, TE (hopefully the one we offered commits), nickel, safety, big RB, Big Receiver, Tackle…

IMO you’re going to find far more steals in Juco in today’s game because high schoolers are getting completely screwed by transfer portal. There are plenty guys at Juco right now that would be big sky/mountain west guys if it were no portal. Also very strategic now since it doesn’t count against eligibility.

I thought he was a senior. He has eligibility? And leaving?!

thought you meant Cleeland. Treynor will be starter in 2026.

Eason has a cannon and is very, very good. We will see.

I agree. CP has an “it factor” that was cool to watch but Vargas has Sunday traits to me. Slightly disappointing because I think this group would’ve gotten a national championship had it been old transfer rules. Plough’s first recruiting class was a masterpiece offensively.

UCLA? Seeing them hit hard

Fair enough

asap. You don’t pay that type of money for a kid to miss spring ball. Especially a QB

Let’s not villainize the athletes. These programs are offering loads of money to kids. These kids are seeing peers at Davis and other schools not even be able to get hired at a job with a 45k salary when they graduate. They are taking the money, as are the coaches. Blame the system for the free-for-all that is happening but then again, this is what happens when you exploit student-athletes for 75+ years..

What I will say is, we were in this exact (or worst) situation last year. Cleeland’s arm may be up there with the best arm talent we’ve seen here and Plough is a QB guru. We will see..
