Dude, our OL and receivers are terrible.We will have an experienced O-Line, RBs, WRs and TEs. All we need is someone to get them the ball.
Just a reality check for you

This guy is a stud with plenty of eligibility. I don't care if Franks and Trask are progressing well or not. There is no reason that we should not go after Stidham. I don't think he's coming here, but I don't blame Mac for trying.
We'll just out score them, I hear Macs O is deadly with his guy at QBYall realize this guy is going to light us up next year in A&M's offense...right?
Um, no. First of all, they are Freshmen! Are they supposed to be above-average college QBs already? Do you think the ideal situation is starting a RS Freshman? Second, our coaching staff SHOULD be constantly searching for talent to bring in. We're still thin at QB. We brought in 2 last year and have a highly rated guy coming in next year. You think we should stop and go with whatever we've got? Heck no! Let's set up as much competition as we can! Silly thing to complain about.this article should scare people. If mac isn't sold on the two freshman he's had for close to a year now, something is terribly wrong.

According to Rivals he was a 4 star... isn't that the source of choice?
@SECCountryUF: Report: Florida coaching staff has been in contact with former 5-star QB Jarrett Stidham https://sec.news/2gvwXVf #GatorNation
So, now he is considering us after we finish the season 1-3?
^ This!!!! I think this should be a good selling point to get a "transfer" like this kid or the kid from Bama.We will have an experienced O-Line, RBs, WRs and TEs. All we need is someone to get them the ball. You would think that QBs would be crawling over each other to get here.
I didn't forget, but I hear you. Some Freshmen play well or are stars, do doubt about it. I don't think that's typical, though. I haven't gone back and looked it up, but when FSU was so good in the 90's, I think they had a string of QBs who didn't start until they were Juniors.Uh...
I guess you forgot about the last two RS Freshman who won a Heisman plus all the RS Freshman tearing it up this year. This isn't 1970. Freshman can play and many play well.

I just think it's silly to criticize a coach b/c he hasn't played true Freshmen QBs. Can't expect Mac to make the boom/bust decisions on Freshmen, and I don't think we'd want him to.
FIFY. Most run single read and have the same thing for their running game or run pass option.It is a different world today than in the 90s. Highschools are running offenses that are less complex
Throw to the open guy. Block the guy wearing a different jersey... should be that simple.It is a different world today than in the 90s. Highschools are running offenses that are more complex and kids have more coaching and camps than ever to help them get prepared. That is why you see freshman playing at a high level all over the country. Unless Franks is horrible, it makes no sense that Mac has not played him at this point. Appleby and Del Rio aren't going to be the answer. Get the young kid some experience!
That's mostly true. Still see a lot of Wing T too on the smaller level. The good schools are running spread or ace back spread with quick hitters and sluggo, wheel and gator routes.FIFY. Most run single read and have the same thing for their running game or run pass option.
It's hard to find a quarterback because coaches are just putting their biggest athlete at Qb and running him 30 times.
You really think current kids could even run SOS plays? They required each kid (Wrs too not just the QB) to read the coverages and their routes changed depending on zone vs man, numbers of safeties high, even the way the DBs line up on each man. Everyone had to be on the same page.
Kids today just read a DE and keep or give based off that. It's a glorified middle school offense.
It isn't even close to being as complicated.
