We signed two great QBs last year and at least one of them will be redshirted. A QB in this upcoming class is a pure luxury, not a necessity
Well, ideally, it would be best if we signed one and then redshirted him. I'm fine either way, though, because this is going to be a very deep class for us

1st, the notion that we don't need a QB in the class. I don't get how some think we don't need one. Jennings has passed Rivers at this point and that leads me,, and many others, to believe he's probably gonna bolt. That leaves just Jennings and Retiig on the roster after this season. Even if Rivers stays to backup Jennings, what's to say Rettig doesn't bolt after a year or 2? When these questions are viable and possibilities to happen, you need a QB in the class. Haven't we all learned from the JJ/JL experience that you need as many options as possible at QB? A QB is needed in every class. The thought that the staff at one time was looking at 2 QBs in the class should tell you that 1 is an absolute must.
As for Harris, I think we land him but I'm not a huge fan of the kid. He's a top talent with a cannon and athletic ability but I just don't see the leadership abilities that are necessary. Could be I'm just turned off by his cockiness and seemingly "me 1st" attitude. I want to land him because our options are short now and because he's an instate kid but if we lose him those are the only 2 reasons I'd be disappointed. I like Brandon Dawkins better overall.
If I'm Harris and Baylor is sincere about me and willing to take me(Randall Cunningham has always been their top guy), I look very hard at them. Briles has proven what he can do with Harris' skillset. Moreso than Malzhan imo. Malzhan had 1 big year with a special QB. What have his other QBs done? Kiehl Fraizer is as talented, or more, as Harris and he is a complete mess. I don't get the whole Malzhan genius thing.
