Morris Combo?

GreenN'walinsVet · January 1, 2021

While $$$ would be an issue, I see Chandler Morris is transferring from OU. We need a QB and an OC.
Daughter and Sister is already here.
Family reunion in Denton?

Chad is not giving up the OC gig at Auburn to come here, unless he was let go by the new coach which I haven’t heard if he was or not

Venson · January 1, 2021

I think it would be more than money. I just cannot see Chad Morris coming here to work under Seth. His pride won't let him do that, but stranger things have happened. It would be something if we got them both.

Have we ever actually had a player from HP?

We don’t need a QB

Wrong... just not the only thing we need

greenminer · January 1, 2021

Friendly reminder: we currently have 8 QBs listed on our roster, and I think Bryce will be here in the Spring.

Not wrong. We just had two lead us to over 500 yards in offense per game. With Aune/Bean, Martin, Kuehne, Gilmore and Drummond coming in that is six on scholarship. Throw in the walk-on Thompson that was highly regarded, we don't need another QB in the room. We need to settle on a starter from the group above. Hell, I might even fathom a guess that Bean/Aune are not the top two in that QB room.

You don’t turn down a 4 star QB ever.

500 yards of offense... how much of that was in junk time?

I like bean and aune. But I believe a true competition this spring. Let best qb have the reigns. Build offense around them. 2 completely different qbs. We ran the exact same offense for both. Mistake imo

I bet Chad is waiting for an OC or QB coach job to open up at a P5. I can't imagine him coming here. Chandler on the other hand, I have no clue. He had 15 offers out of HS. The lowest rated schools were us, Colorado St, SMU, and Kansas. The others were all big P5 schools. His sister is here in the recruiting dept, so there's that.

We can be both here

Wag Tag · January 1, 2021

My wish would be Grant Tisdale out of Ole Miss and Allen HS , Chandler would also be sweet. I think Seth has a story to tell of success developing under sized QBs which could maybe be attractive to both of theses guys.

We need an OC more than a QB so that Littrell can spend more time folding his arms and being non emotional on the sidelines.

NorthTexasSportsNetwork · January 1, 2021

Yes Chandler Morris would whoop all of our current QBs asses by a mile.

Yeah we need other things besides QB, but if this is just sitting right in front of us, why not go get it! Chandler is not gonna be starting a most P5 schools, so why not help a G5 that can rise and be great.

That would be a realistic guess on your part. I hope that we have a spring practice/program so that I can go and get a look at all the candidates......and confirm your guess.

So much goes into how well a QB plays. Starting with the OL that gives them time to make good decisions. Receivers who MUST run their routes consistently, almost always catch the ball when it hits them in their hands, and make yards after catch.

When you have a stable of receivers like Bussy, Lawrence, Darden etc, just about any moderately talented QB can look much better.

Yep, it is a team game and everyone must do their part. My one concern with Seth is that he seemed to lock in on Bean or Aune and never gave Martin or Kuehne a shot. I want the best QB on the field. I watched our offense move the ball with ease at times against a good App State team while missing our top QB, top 2 WR’s and our leading rusher, although Adaway is probably better when healthy. The talent is there, get the best on the field, develop a successful gameplan and make adjustments during the game to react to what the defense is doing.

Aune/Bean are way better than Martin/Keuhne. I would go on a limb to say that Keuhne is just on here because of his granddad

Based on what? We haven’t even seen him in action. What I do know is that he lead his team to the OK state championship game in their highest classification and some are discounting him while thinking Drummond is going to walk in and start while coming from the smallest division in OK. Bean didn’t start his senior year in high school, not sure why, and Aune is old compared to the others in the room. Either way, it would be good for all of them to get an entire Spring and Fall under their belt and let the competition determine the starter.

Well clearly he hasn't proved anything considering he's on special teams. We have no clue really what goes on during practices, but I agree on the last part. Spring should be telling for the QBs and who can step up. Hopefully they let people in for spring scrimmages and stuff.

First we had Holgorsen committed, then he decommitted. Then we almost landed Chase Griffin but he chose UCLA. Kuehne was the most logical realistic choice at that point and he committed shortly after we moved our focus from Griffin to Kuehne. Kuehne was offered by Maryland, Arkansas State, and New Mexico so he was a legitimate G5 QB prospect, irrespective of the familial relationship.
