100%.....way harder to buy your way to a title in football, not impossible, but harder. The number of players plus injuries makes it really difficult.
Different story in basketball. Some rich dude could definitely come in and try to buy a dream team. Still have to get the right players...
I would have liked to see Mitchell with this current roster. He is one that definitely got better last year as the season went on.
But looks like he found a great landing spot for his skill set.
Based on his career trajectory...he will go be an analyst somewhere and eventually end up back at Rutgers for like his 4th stint there. As long as it isn't here I don't care where he goes.
As for Rossi....wouldn't mind him coming back as long as he was committed to sticking around for a while.
It is hard to get a true gauge on it but we see it when the threads ranking the QBs come out and you go team by team and see all the transfers listed as being in their first year at the helm.
It would be kind of interesting to go through every teams QB room and see what kind of experienced...
It is a fine line that coaches have to walk now. With Fleck's approach we are unlikely to have the instant success a team like Indiana has had where the coach only cares about winning at all costs.
We are also unlikely to have a lot of off the field issues because the staff is unlikely to...
As another poster mentioned I wouldn't read a ton into where he was on the depth chart as a true freshman.
Reality with QBs these days is that a lot of guys are unwilling to sit and wait their turn. When the starter will be just a redshirt sophomore next year the prospects for the other QBs to...
Greg Johnson, Kerry Brown, Karter Menz, Matt Kinsbury, Zaquan Bryan.....
Plenty of dead weight in the class but some solid players came out of it and there are few others in there that it is too early to close the book on since those players were either redshirt Sophomores or true juniors this...
Will be interesting to see what kind of opportunities he gets in the portal. Assume if he wants a guarantee of playing time right away he will need to drop down to G5 or even FCS.
Yeah, having any sort of experience or proven depth at the backup QB position is pretty tough these days with the way guys move around in search of opportunities.
Haven't seen or looked for a lot but saw the one comment from a player that was replied to by another making it seem that they were disputing Kiffin's claim they wanted him to coach.
