Our QB position next season
- Thread starter Uncle Adolph
- Start date
I'm sure there is a competent group of 5 QB in the MAC or CUSA who'd love to spend a year or 2 living large at an SEC program. Who knows they will be a practice player, starting their coaching career. A Sawyer Smith type.
Pretty sure Brohm will have that kid on lockdown in the near future. We would likely be...
No QB worth anything wants to be holding a clipboard ANYWHERE. It's why the QB position is one of the most active portal positions each year, and why guys like Vandagriff are willing to look at schools now that they wouldn't have even considered during their recruitment.
Pretty sure he has preparing himself for the NFL on his mind. Hope he is able to achieve his dream and be the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL draft. 😁
The depth now will most likely be with plenty of eligibility who aren't in a rush for playing time.
-High school...Boley
-Lower tier P5 or G5 freshman who wants an SEC sniff
-Maybe an athlete/wildcat type who's willing to play another position
Very unlikely to get anyone with any legit reps/experience to come hold the clipboard.

Yes. People on here bitching and moaning about play count don't get it. QBs are coming here to play in a pro system. If they only get 55 snaps a game instead of 60, they don't care.
Let’s assume Vandergriff comes in and plays well and stays for 2 years. That would mean that Boley starts his RS sophomore year for a couple of years. Then Saunders won’t play until his RS jr year. No way that happens
True but it does happen. Ole Miss brought in Spencer Sanders from Oklahoma St to back up Jaxon Dart in '23. Sanders threw for almost 10,000 yds and nearly 70 TDs as a Cowboy. Crazy.
That's wild. There's got to be more to that story.
They either lied to him and told him he was going to play, or there was just a bag of money too good to pass up even if it meant sitting that OSU couldn't match...or something else...who knows...
Bama and Auburn both offered.
The upside is great. But he turns it over a lot at the high school level. The 247 page says he's thrown 20+ INT's since moving to Varsity.
I went watched him vs Mayfield, and he had an awful night. Two Pick 6's, a 3rd INT, a fumble lost. The two pick 6's were dangerous throws that he floated.
He's got probably a couple of years to clean it up. I'm rooting for him to be a rock star.
If Vandergriff stays 2 years and Saunders is good, Boley will never play at UK
Well that sure is an opinion
Did Carson Beck suck, he is all signs returning for a 2nd yr as Georgia starting QB instead of going NFL? Same for Ewers at Texas? Was Oregon pissed Nix apparently sucked since he returned fir a 2nd season? Penix at Washington?
NFL really doesn't like drafting QBs with only 1 season of starting experience, kid. Vandergriff is on the Levis 2 year starting plan, and it ain't because of any planned sucking.
Yeah, we have no backups at this point, but all signs for next year are
VG
B. Allen
Cutter
Saunders has only thrown 15 picks in 3 years of varsity,, only 5 each season.. Had only thrown 3 this year before getting to playoffs..
I'd be surprised if Deuce stays; there's a possibility that he goes small college route, as this next year will be his last chance. He's 23 now, and will be 24 during the next football season. He seems like a really good dude too (I have met him once, but I know people who know him well - he goes to a church near campus - He leads Bible studies with the team).
I mean, I'm sure there's a world in which he comes out and kills it and the NFL comes calling.
But there are lots of very good college QB's that wind up being late round picks, career backups, go undrafted, etc.
-this is the correct answer.
^it's like a lot of folks don't actually follow college football/know how it works.
You can forget ZJ. He is a lock for u6 unless JB falls flat on his face. Be shocked if UK even gets a sniff.
if u want a leader a stetson Bennet type leader whos accurate passing and can read defenses and unflappable get the qb from Mayfield Zane cartwright.He has all the intangibles to be a geat qb.look at his last 3 or 4 games in his leading Mayfield to the 2a champioship through LCA(cutter Boley) and beechwood and ownesboro Catholic with Brady Atwell.Zane is a cool customer!!!
If in 3 yrs he wants to play in an ACC without FSU & Clemson then he hasn't much of a competitive spirit and thus is no loss
I agree that things could change in a heartbeat and our coaches will surely stay in the hunt. Gonna go watch hom play next.
Yeah it certainly looks that way at this point, but we still need to put some effort towards him. First freshman to ever start at QB for Trinity at least as far back as I can remember, and their season really turned around when he took the helm. Can only imagine that he will have every school in the country after him by the time he graduates.Pretty sure Brohm will have that kid on lockdown in the near future. We would likely be...

Maybe he will, he wants to play and I don't blame him. Stockton was pushing him for the backup spot, even if Beck left he wasn't a lock to start at UGA. He's a threat to run, big arm, got a little hitch in his motion that slows his delivery down. But that is a bad habit that can be corrected. There isn't a downside to him physically, but no idea how he sees the field or reads defenses which is the difference in being good or not very good.
