Getting someone to clearly beat out the other guys at QB would be really good. Having a kid that has yet to play a down, was a two year walk on at NC State who never played there and was injured last year beat out "IT" and Steven Krajewski means either he is really good without having any college game experience, the other two kids from last year aren't nearly good enough or HCRE2.0 is not very good at picking amongst potential QB choices.
quarterback is absolutely a concern. I thought that at times Zergiotis looked like he had potential and at times he looked like a pretty raw true freshman. Krajewski looked decent in his 1 game but the fact that he couldn’t beat out Beaudry or Z raises concerns when A he was heir apparent and B Beaudry was what he was. My sense was Edsall kept waiting for him to take the job and he never did. On Leon I have the same concerns you do. If we get solid about play I think there are potentially 6 wins out there. Excellent play and maybe we shock someone. Otherwise maybe 3.
Yep, as in the difference between 'Syracuse' Pasqualoni and 'Connecticut' Pasqualoni.
This made me chuckle. Why? Because Paul would absolutely agree with it.
We know who you would want to start. Whoever was number 2 on the depth chart. Unless he did become the starter. Then you’d start the guy he replaced.
In fairness, its a symptom of a struggling program that can’t produce an offense. IMO Shane Stafford is the best we ever had besides DanO and would better than every QB we’ve had since. Just not getting it done at that position.
When I see some of the qbs coming out of the MAC and the Sunbelt I have to admit I don’t get why we have had such a difficult time finding a quarterback. Not just under Edsall but Diaco and Pasqualoni whiffed too. P not so much in finding them but in developing/using them properly.
I think 6 wins is possible but less is likely. I don’t really like predicting wins and losses this early. Too many unknowns all around but I would say 6 of the home games are winnable. Indiana will be a huge stretch. Doesnt mean we will win all 6 but we could. On the road I think Illinois is the most likely upset but I don’t have high regard for ACC teams not named Clemson so an upset at Virginia or UNC while unlikely would be my second picks 2a and 2b after the Illini. I think getting a little momentum but that will be tough the way this schedule lays out.
I don’t disagree in the least. I
I don’t disagree at all. I think road wins will be exceptionally tough. I was just trying to give my early view of where we have the best chance of sneaking out a win. But as I say it is way too early to pick specific games. Virginia last there quarterback to graduation. Who replaces him? That’s one example. And as a general rule I think the ACC is the weakest of the P5 so if you are going to steal a game that is a likely place to do as opposed to, say the SEC. Doesn’t mean I think it is likely. Just more likely than the others.
No offense but kind of a stupid post. If this team can win 4 or 5 games it would be a tremendous improvement.
