In fairness to him, everyone knows if you get a franchise quarterback, you start him for 15+ years and never look back. Obviously we're going to have to find some creative ways around the whole "5 years to play 4" thing the NCAA has going which necessitates trying to get a top level QB in every class, but if Stoops really believed that DB was our guy, he'd have him penciled in as the signal caller until he was 30 to 32, that's common sense. I'd say from the looks of who we're focusing on in recruiting position by position, honestly I think Stoops is about to clean house. 5 years from now I don't think there will be a single hold over from next years roster, he's gonna push them all out. The fact we are recruiting a 2016 class at all should scare the hell out of the remnants of the 2011 and 2012 classes.
It's true that only 1 quarterback at a time can play. The rest of your post doesn't make sense. It is always best to take 1 quarterback in each class, then redshirt them. Injuries can change a team's fortunes fast, and competition is the key to getting better. With an 85 man roster you are going to have about 40 scholarships tied up on the offense. Ideally, 12-15 will be offensive line, 10-12 wide receivers, and 4-5 quarterbacks at a time. That leaves more than enough scholarships for running backs and tight ends. It's not like you are selling the other positions short by taking a quarterback every year.Originally posted by JHB4UK:
No, very rational thinking IMO. Completely a waste to have more than 3 scholarships tied up in quarterbacks. Only one can play at a time!!!
Some think deWeaver may be leaning to Michigan State.Originally posted by wildcatbd21:
How will this affect us with Messiah deWeaver? They are both 4* PP-QBs. But Kendall is rated 28 and deWeaver is 219 according to Rivals. Would this be a case of first to commit comes and the second goes elsewhere? Which one would be the better one for UK?

Ahhh makes sense! Thank you, puts me at ease, a little bit anyway.Originally posted by mrschwump:
You have to think ahead in this game. Barker backs up Towles then the '16 guy backs Barker for a year or 2 before taking over. You have to constantly develop experienced people. This isn't basketball. UK signs a '16 QB then a '17 QB just like they sign 2 RBs in the '16 class.Originally posted by Rawrrr:
If the staff is still recruiting 4* QBs are we to assume that DB is likely facing charges soon and will soon be no longer a Wildcat?
Ahhh puts me at ease even more concerning DB since you are very often right in your prognostications. I would hate to lose Barker for something so stupid and unrelated to football (beyond the fact that it involved mostly FB players from two schools).Originally posted by KapitalCat:
Really? Stoops has said they will take 1 QB per class. Last we missed out the two guys we focused on. We will take 1 and possible 2 in 2016 and it has nothing to do with Barker . We only have 3 scholarships QB's on the roster. That's a problem. By the way...I would be very surprised if Barker isn't with UK next season.Originally posted by Rawrrr:

The only history I have is I dared to disagree with CatsFanGG24, BTW aren't you supposed to have me on ignore? I do you.Originally posted by CatsFanGG24:
There is a history with that poster...and his post (IF SERIOUS) did all the insulting needed.Originally posted by hoss6901:
C'mon man, the guy was just asking a question and was not being rude about it. No need to insult his intelligence.Originally posted by CatsFanGG24:

Since you made this post are we to assume that you are not very smart or must have been kidding?
What evidence do you have that would indicate that we are going to lose Barker. It's really absurd to speculate about that without backing it up. I mean, do we lose Baker and Dubose too? Don't think so. Likely more to the EKU story than anyone knows, and it's also likely why no charges have been filed against anyone. Including DB.Originally posted by Rawrrr:

Just typical 'fan' over reaction.Originally posted by Blue Decade:
Although I may have missed something, I see nothing to indicate Barker's roster status will change. He is participating in the offseason program. He has not been charged, arrested, or suspended. As far as I can see, he is not being investigated, and eyewitnesses have stated he didn't do anything wrong. So I don't see an issue here, and I wonder why anyone would suggest otherwise without a reason.

No, you can't miss every year without getting a QB. This past year was just one of those years that we had more needs.Originally posted by Rawrrr:

The above post should tell you who it is, along with a following one talking about Kendall, who is the QB in question. He is not only a four star but a 6.0 four star.Originally posted by wildcatbd21:

Actually UK did sign a quarterback in the 2015 class before going after Kendall, so who's the dumb one now?Originally posted by THE_OAK:

welp fellas look at it from a positive viewpoint, more UK fans are becoming interested in the sport and our program. it is tough, and I'm guilty of not doing this but I'm trying, but we gotta be patient & teach 'em!Originally posted by DACats86:
What The Oak said. It's really quite remarkable and seems to be getting worse rather than better.

Yep, "preferred" walkon Mattingly. Preferred walkons are signed but with no scholarship until their junior year.Originally posted by vhcat70:
