This must be something to buy more time for Travis Waller.

Travis Waller is their QB of the future, but I highly doubt he would be ready as a true frosh. This allows him to redshirt.

Vernon Adams Jr is a perfect fit for the Oregon offense.

Seen EWU play a few times and this kid was an absolute joy to watch.

Will be interesting to see how this all transpires.

What we have on the roster is raw. Griffin was a GATECH triple option qb, Mahalak's development as a redshirt was stymied because of a shoulder issue and Waller was always going to be raw. He got significantly better in camps but he is newer to the position. Lockie just isn't up to snuff.

Also, this isn't a rumor. Beat writer for the Oregonian confirmed the trip. Adams is a Duck unless we win the lottery in the Murray sweepstakes.

I am not sure if they would favor Adams or Braxton. Adams definitely doesn't have the injury risk.

It's not a rumor he made the trip, but it's not confirmed he's joining the team yet.

Doesn't Adams get injured a lot? That being said, Adams had the best performance by a QB I had ever seen in Husky Stadium last year. He was incredible.

He sustained a foot injury last year but I am not sure that it's been chronic. With Miller, there is no telling if he will ever be the qb he was.

You lie. LSU fans say that true freshmen QBS are at minimum, worth 8-9 wins

Yep, it sounds like Adams will transfer.

I remember watching him play against Jacksonville State last year. He walked up to the line on the first play with some sort of dance.

When did Adams win the Payton?

Last year Garoppolo won it and this year the QB from Villanova won it, Adams probably should have won it though, as he was best QB in country.

I said if we win the lottery...what's the odds of winning the lottery?

Also, Mahalak will give anyone competition. Between Mahalak, Waller and Green in 2016...qb should be good at Oregon for awhile.
