2022 UConn QB Competition Discussion...

I will always hold fast to the idea that 4=0, and 3=0, and for that matter 2=0. I think Mora is turning in all of his Scrabble tiles for a fresh set, which everyone agrees is the right move.
Yeah, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And coaches tend to like their own recruits. I think Puma will have to stay a year to heal. SK has the most snaps by far of anyone in the room. So he has a shot.
 
It’s not 2007 anymore.
If he was a four or five star I would agree. But he is not, despite his offer list. Were any of those offers to play QB? I do not follow it closely enough to know.

There is a real possibility that he could be the best QB in August.
 
Word. So tired of wait ‘til next year sh&t with this program. Tyler Phommachanh was gonna be redshirted regardless of performance by the QBs this past year. Then RE thankfully waa let go. He was far far better than Jack Zergiotis and Steven Krajewski. Alas he was injured.
Some here may say that’s a wash, but we did get a glimpse of competent QB behind center.
“Far far better” with his 48% comp %...

Tyler Phommachanh will never take another meaningful snap at QB for us. Pin this post and come back in four years. It'll age like wine. Roberson and Zion have rendered him redundant.
FairyFlyer don’t count Tyler out. With poor blocking he played very well. One thing you can bet on is Mora will play the best player he sees.

Don’t necessarily agree with the tone of the post but I do think the arm talent just isn’t there for him, and I was a big supporter last year. Would make an awesome slot receiver assuming he can catch, and that is likely his long term position if he wants an NFL look.

Thanks, Hoboken. Tone could have been better. I like Tyler and want the best for him and all our players. I just have a strong conviction that the task is a bit beyond him at this point.
 
Turner was the first QB Lashlee offered when he got to Miami as their OC.
No doubt that he is talented, or HCJM would not have made the offer. But let's not get carried away. Do we know that the offer was for playing QB? And who else did they have in their room already?

Here are a few articles that talk about Miami/Lashlee recruiting ZT as a QB.
 
I will sum up my thoughts rather quickly. I like what I am seeing so far. What needs to be remembered is the rise of the QB, and the level he reaches doesn't matter who it is. It matters how high he rises. Just having an adequate QB isn't enough. NCAA Football is highly based on 1 thing. There is a symbiotic relationship between the level of the QB and the level of the team. It makes no difference which of the many QB's ends up being #1. It makes all the difference of what level he is playing at. That will have more input on the level the team rises to than anything else.
 
ON a Sunday Morning CT talk TV show, Mora highlighted Robinson as being enrolled and working out with the WR's. It could be because Millen isn't here yet, but I felt that was a tip of the hand to who he is expecting to be his QB.

This is good to hear.

Among the transfers we did see a tweet that he signed so this would make that he would already be in the building

Was it he is working out with the WR's as a QB or as a WR?
 
I will bet you a beer that does not happen unless there are a ton of injuries in 2023 and he has to step in. Start the first game as QB in 2023? Never.
Curious how you know this. I need investment advice.

Yooou. You often make wild-ass assertions based on ... what? Your iCloud? There is nothing written or implied on what Zion is being recruited for except to be the 2022 class QB. If he turns into a different position, we shall call you prescient; because there is no indication of that to date.

Well we haven’t begun the competition yet! Hopefully one clear winner emerges, but that doesn’t mean you cant have 3 or 4 capable quarterbacks on a roster. Don’t forget that Ohio State won a national championship with a 3rd stringer in 2014.

You completely missed the point of the post. My question was what position did the P5 schools from which he had offers recruit him for. NOT what position he was recruited for by HCJM. That much is well known. The discussion started when it was noted that he had a lot of P5 offers and therefore people were predicting he had a great chance of starting right away for UConn. I asked, were all those offers to play QB? No one has answered that yet. Are we caught up now?

The trick is never to bet more than you can afford to lose. If I am wrong, I will pay up if we have a bet. So far he has not taken me up on it.

I could use investment advice too.

Plastics. And you have to be of a certain epoch to get that. Luckily my kids are doing well enough that they don’t need to worry about what the market is currently doing to their inheritance.

My only QB prediction is that it probably won’t be Johnny McEntee.

Can't remember the first name of Miss Robinson but I was in love with her. Mrs Robinson probably could have had .... Oh, never mind. Coo coo cuchew. Parsely, sage, rosemary and thyme.

Elaine.

Oh, on McEntee, he may indeed come back if the former guy wins in 2024. And as the starting "QB", just not on the same team.
