Mark Stoops vaunted defense will put a stop to him.
Agreed. However, my opinion is that we don't attempt to be a place that prepares QBs for the NFL. I think we should run more of an RPO/controlled passing offense that utilizes QB runs judiciously. Hardest scheme to defend, imo. If not, get that info from Brad White as to what is the hardest to defend and implement that one.
There are many, many really good HS QBs who aren't 6'-3" and 220 lbs who are fast, shifty, smart, possess a good arm, etc who won't sniff the NFL. But, they would potentially make a really good college QB (Pavia at Vandy immediately comes to mind but there are hundreds available every year). That's where I believe could prosper.
Yeah the immediate reaction from many is always NIL because it’s easy and absolves coaches but on offense it’s difficult to find players that have options that would bank on something being different from the track record.
Great get.
Brohm is rolling. Always seems to get great production out of his QBs.
Cards are back. No surprise it’s a guy who knows offense leading the charge.

Again, this player lost his starting job mid-season. He's shown promise but took a serious step backwards in '24.
The NIL era may actually make UK’s task of climbing the SEC ladder even harder. Outside of maybe Vandy, I’m guessing every other SEC team will have more to spend in the NIL lottery than UK. Combine that with Kentucky’s lock of HS talent compared to other southern states and UK is at a major disadvantage. At least UL has a bigger city with more business pockets to pull from, and it’s showing.
Stoops says UK's NIL is the best it's been and adequate for their needs. We should take his word for it.
We rank 24th on Rivals for quality of 2025 recruits, currently. Louisville sits at 67th.
Quality of transfers? We have brought/bought three QB’s since 2021 that were ranked among the Top three available in the portal, and numerous other respected players.
Our high school recruiting is actually marginally better than pre-NIL. U of L’s is marginally worse. Both programs have had respected transfers.
Bluntly stated, since 2021, NIL appears to have elevated Kentucky recruiting.
Since 2021, we have been missing the victories on the field we’d become accustomed to . . . and that change calls into question our recruiting evaluations and player development.

Good point. I think their strategy of going after a known commodity at QB where they have lots of tape and can know what to expect is smarter than our strategy of get a highly ranked high school kid who couldn’t see the field in college.
Moss is a very good get for Brohm. Jeff seems to know how to maximize QBs strengths. Moss will have a good year for UL. Smart move for the kid.
