Can someone post some info on Blake Bost (Backup QB to Calzada)
All I know is that he is left handed, is a walk-on, and had amazing numbers in HS at Port Neches-Groves in 2020.

Is he on scholarship?
Is there any qb available after him?
Can he throw deep?

I assume he is getting as much action as is available in practices.

Blake Bost kicked Chuck Norris' ass.

That's all you need to know.

I assume he will have a chance to show what he can vs Prairie View.
Not taking chances on a tight SEC game without any experience unless absolutely necessary.

It was foretold in The Spirit that after Bost beats everyone, the top players from every NCAA program will all transfer to A&M.

You post you know he is a walk on and then ask if he is on scholarship.

Technically yes according to the roster, there are other QBs after him. I highly doubt any of them are anything other than scout team players and will not suit up on Saturdays

Bost throws a beautiful deep ball in warmups. That's all I got.

Bost is the qb with the most
An arm that can throw it from coast to coast
Although he's not one to boast
Dare him to throw and the DB's are toast
Especially when it's to Chapman on a post

He's getting plenty of action at North Gate. Parlays being a college quarterback to a dozen home runs this season. Winning.

You don't need to know any more about him.

Ya well Chuck Norris doesn't own a stove, oven, or microwave , because revenge is a dish best served cold. So Blake Bost better watch his back.

Serious answers, in case someone needs them:

-He is a preferred Walk-on (which is like a walk on that the coaching staff actually thinks can contribute)
-The other QB option after him is likely Eli Stowers, a freshman QB who has moved to potentially play as a TE
-Based on the HS tape, his arm looks fine but not spectacular- he's more of a dual threat

He's probably getting a small number of snaps during the week. Calzada reps are definitely the priority

There's a post somewhere with his hs highlights. He was outstanding!

I guess I was not aware that a walk-on means you then have a scholarship.
Q: Do all walk-on's have scholarships?
StrykerAg
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Walk-ons are NOT scholarship players.

Walk-ons can EARN scholarships, but then they are a scholarship player and no longer a walk-on

Very helpful. Thanks.
However Bost is constantly referred to a "walk-on".

I am guessing from this conversation that he earned a scholarship but is still referred to as a walk-on because that is how he arrived on campus. That has human interest appeal I suppose.

Both times that Calzada got hurt we probably all wondered if Bost is ready for this.

Yes, he could be the real 12th man.

And hasn't been seeing the field doing that either, so yikes.

Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

Since Bost is still referred to as a walk-on, he does not have a football scholarship.

Isn't he technically both at that point? He didn't suddenly become a recruited player that was offered in high school, just because he is now on scholarship. He still walked on.

Our team seems to make a big deal when walkons earn their scholarships though and I haven't seen anything about Blake. He would've had to really impress the coaches in practice to earn it since he is just a freshman with almost no game action. Personally I wouldn't want to keep being referred to as a walkon if I busted my ass to earn a scholarship because it seems to imply you're not good enough to see the field unless your team has depth issues at your position

Bost eats at Chick Fila….on Sundays.

But literally no one refers to them in that manner. Until this thread I thought it was universally known that walk on meant no Scholly. Walk on can still be recruited as walk ons. If they earn a scholarship they are no longer referred to as walk ons.

I don't know anything about Bost. I looked at his high school stats and he had over 900 rushing yards with 19 TD's. All district shortstop also. That tells me the kid is an athlete. I'll give him a chance.

You have way too much faith in the media to actually know the facts Occasionally the facts detract from the "human interest" story
Iirc Gillespia was still wearing #12 after he earned a scholarship

Really thought for the final series ( up by 17) when all we were doing was handing the ball off
Bost should have been the guy taking snaps and doing the handing off.
