Three Questions

1. How much eligibility will he have left?

2. Could he push Fine for the starting job in 2018?

3. With his height and speed could they be thinking conversion to WR?

With his injury and Fine's solid play so far I don't see him pushing Fine for the starting spot until 2018.  And I don't think you make a scholarship offer to transfer with limited eligibility when you rebuilding and changing offensive philosophy from the last staff.

Guarantees you ability to redshirt QB from Texarkana High, and have a solid backup for fine. This staff will leave zero stone unturned.

1) He's a 3 for 3 mid-term transfer

2) Possibly, but he definitely brings much needed depth to upgrade the position

3) No

This staff is extremely thorough in their evaluation process, and I'd be certain they offered a scholarship because they believe that Isadore can help them.

Do we go after another Qb? I don't think so! Sweet congrats to all! GmgGMG

QB is a position you CANNOT have too many of. I will have no problem if Littrell keeps recruiting QBs as they are a position that you can move around to other positions(remember that Brad Kassell was one of the best LB to ever play for UNT and he was a QB in high school).

No position is guaranteed on Seth Littrell's roster. He has proven that with Fine taking over as a true freshman when everyone thought(me included) that Alec would be the starter this year. If Isadore, Pearson, or anyone else is better than Fine then they will play.

Guys... our QB room already has no resemblance to what was here just last year... it is only going to get better now! i am so glad we have coaches that can go out and get a guy. It is a refreshing change of pace.

Am I missing something? 

#3 ranked dual threat qb? Just started his second season before tearing ACL. Bigger schools while likely not come sniffing around after that.

Solid depth add. Next year O'Hara will need some competition (with the hope/expectation that Pearson sticks and is redshirted).

Happy that we landed another QB, but '"top"?  We were the only school to offer...with SFA and Louisiana merely sniffing around?

Come on, dude.  Nice that we landed a QB.  But, he's far from a "top" prospect.

The article says he wants to go to Baylor, not that Baylor offered him.  Big difference. 

I want a Ferrari, but no dealership has stepped forward to offer one to me yet.

I fully understand that.  The article does mention that he would be a good choice for Baylor however.  I'm only pointing out some interest from their recruiting site, regardless of how the team feels about him relative to their needs at QB. :

A signing of Isadore would be ideal for the Bears who are set to lose Russell following the season and only return Smith who is currently a true freshman. A one-time Baylor pledge for the 2017 class, Kellen Mond (IMG Academy) is now committed to Texas A&M.

Isadore, who was awarded as a top performer at a TCU camp in June and invited back for a second camp later in the summer, hasn't heard from Baylor at this time, but it won't take much more than a phone call to get him on campus.

Has anyone paid attention to how the recent Dallas philosophy of building their team has gotten them a 4-1 record with a rookie QB starting? They have a dominating O-line.  Dual threat QB's are just what we always need here, but the guys to block for them are just as important. I'd like to hear about some outstanding Juco O-linemen coming here mid-term........preferably all-american and/or all-conference.

I just wish other CUSA-type schools shared your sentiment.

Just to state the obvious, not necessarily for you: this is not the #3 ranked dual threat QB in the country.  This list is specific to JUCOs.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
