How Many QB's in 2022?

[Okiefan]

I know this has been mentioned before that we probably have more scholarship QB's than most FBS programs and we will add to that number today. Seven is a big number. Do we have seven come spring practice?

Aune

Ruder

Gilmore

Martin

Drummond

Plus JD Head and Stone Earle (transfers)

None of it will matter if we don't get a quality QB coach in there

No way - my guess is that Gilmore will transfer.  Not sure about Ruder.   Martin doesn't have much eligibility left and he's a team favorite so I am guessing he stays.  The writing is on the wall though.  Not many reps to be had.

I think 2 will be gone and maybe 3. I also believe we may add another qb. Is Earle firm or was it just an offer? Could see Martin moving to a GA spot.

My prediction is

Aune (Graduates and Start LIfe)

Gilmore (transfers)

Martin(Graduates and Starts life)

 

Ruder and Headstone 3 way battle during spring.

[Okiefan]

Earle was the first to sign today

[UNTLifer]

I foresee our QB room to be:

Ruder

Drummond

Head

Earle

One more spot for Ward

Couple of PWO's.

The thing I keep coming back to on Martin is that I’m actually kind of surprised he didn’t take part in the Senior Day ceremonies. He still has two years of eligibility left, but I have no idea what he will choose to do. Him staying and being a backup who never plays, him transferring, or him moving on from college football really all do seem like possibilities.

Mac Jones rode the bench until he got a shot…and took advantage of that opportunity. I would love for the same to happen with Martin.

Free Master's Degree isn't a bad option.  STUDENT athlete.

7 doesn't seem crazy.  You try and recruit at least 1 QB every class.  Then, if you miss and a lot of them (like we have), then you bring in extras to try and remedy the situation.

So do we think Drummond is another high school signing flop?

If he's not a major player for the starting job this spring like JD said then I would say it's a flop.

JD Head will have redshirt freshman eligibility and Stone Earle will have true sophomore eligibility, while Drummond will be a redshirt freshman. If those two both pass him then the path to Drummond ever being the starter here becomes hard to envision.
