If we don't at least demonstrate that we can consistently complete more than 8 forward passes a game, option QBs (think service academies) will be the only ones willing to come here and we'll be lucky to get 3* receivers.

I know nobody here wants to hear this but it's true. At least right now in theory we can pass if we absolutely need to. If we can't start showing these kids they can come here and thrive we have to run against 11-man boxes because our opponents will know we can't pass even if they put no one in coverage.

Wrong.

There are HS QBs who want to go to a college program that will teach them how to be an NFL QB. LSU does that. LSU uses a complicated NFL system that prepares QBs to play in the NFL.

There are always going to be some QBs who want to put up big numbers in a simplified college system.

Likewise, there are always going to be some QBs who want to learn what it takes to succeed in the NFL.

That's funny, because we've signed the top WR in the nation the past two cycles. And as many have stated, we pretty much only recruit Pro Style QB's, Harris being the exception.

Got through the first page.

Why are we discussing at duel threat QBs? Gonna start doing the ole "15 steps and draw" instead of a coin toss?
