If anyone here is unfamiliar with Quincy Avery:

While Avery is known in sports circles as the "Quarterback Whisperer," his impact extends far beyond that. He's trained the likes of Jalen Hurts, Justin Fields, Deshaun Watson, C.J. Stroud, and Jordan Love, but he takes special pride in having "trained more NFL quarterbacks than anybody else."

It would be great if true. Also a shock if a lightly recruited 3 star QB became by far the best QB in Gophers History (at least from an NFL perspective)…

Check out this story on NFL qbs and how they were viewed in high school....Josh Allen had to go JUCO and there are all kinds of other guys that were not high profile guys coming out of high school that have made it to the NFL.

Can't wait to see what Drake can do. Scary to put faith in a redshirt freshman with very little experience. But the coaches didn't go looking for his replacement so they must have seen enough to tell them Drake could get the job done.

The more surprising thing to me is how a QB in the top division of a southern state can throw for 3,941 yards, 54 TD/3 INT his senior year after 3,600 yards 36 TD/3 INT, Gatorade player of the year and be a 3 star. Arkansas came after him hard at the end. To put it bluntly....he's not a 3 star talent and never was.

I thought he said Arkansas never offered him?

Per Strib:

"The Arkansas coaching staff, however, opted to recruit dual-threat quarterbacks rather than the 6-5, 230-pound Lindsey, a drop-back passer. The staff showed interest in Lindsey late in the recruiting cycle, but Gophers coach P.J. Fleck and offensive coordinator Greg Harbaugh Jr. already had built tight bonds."

The story was Petrino came back into the fold late at Arkansas during LIndsey's recruitment and they went after him hard but he shut them down completely.

But, in a video on here somewhere Drake said it was fiction that Arkansas recruited him hard at the end. I dunno...happy today that he is our QB. Ask me Friday morning how I feel about it...:giggle:
If the Gophers have a Round 1 NFL QB that'd be very fun to watch!

Maybe true, but I also recall a Bobby Petrino video/podcast where he talked about wanting Lindsey
