This is by no means a call for LClark to play over Sam. But I am encouraged by the poise and performance of our Elon transfer.

I had heard a lot of praise from different sources about him during the summer.

Nice to have someone who doesn’t send us into panic if Sam has to come out for a bit.

I think we'll definitely see him if we're ever in a long hail Mary situation. He's got a cannon

I think he’s capable if something should happen
He looks comfortable in the time he’s had so far and could definitely be the starter one day

I think Clark was a good addition , far better than I originally thought as I’d never seen him play at Elon and didn’t know what he could do . He looked good in limited action running our offense . If Leavitt doesn’t learn to slide at the end of runs to avoid hits we will see a lot of the backup QB

Most efficient backup since Flynn in 06, in my opinion. His speed is righteous. He throws a decent ball. I’m not advocating that he starts at all, but ala Hodson/Guidry, I wouldn’t be opposed to him leading a drive in the 2nd and 4th quarters. Let Sam see some game. And I’d be okay if he didn’t do that at all and Leavitt never comes out. But I like him. For a second stringer, he’s solid.

At Elon he threw a 74-76 yard TD pass — in the air!

BUIES CREEK — Landen Clark’s 96-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Fuhrmann with 1:07 remaining in the fourth quarter lifted visiting Elon over Campbell 31-24 on Saturday at Barker-Lane Stadium.

74 yards in the air

It was really cool to see him in the game. He did great. So nice to feel like you have a quality backup.

It doesn't seem like there's a five million dollar difference between the two. Maybe Landon plus three interior lineman st $2m a piece would have been better.

There are few constants in life. One of those is that the rant is always encouraged by the backup quarterback.

In this case the rant is right. I said that Collins was going to be a great QB before the season started and he has done nothing to change my mind. In 2 games he come in and leads the team to a TD in both. Leavit will improve but the competition will help him. We are 3 deep at QB.

I don;t see Sam getting drafted the 1st 5 rounds based on 1st 2 games. I don't see an NFL arm here. Maybe he has small hands?
