So you are saying life is not fair and some people are more marketable than others, which is true but it's been true since the beginning of time and before NIL ever existed.

I almost think Jimbo should slow play this thing and meet with Ewers. He can tell Quinn next Friday "No thanks, we're all full at this point and have the QB we want". That would be classic.
Yea...well you would obviously have to fill in Weigman beforehand. The intent being we want to secure all of our prospects to get them past ESD. Really though I don't think there is that much risk of losing anyone at this point. It would be more for the OL were still trying to get.rootube said:Vinny said:

Sounds like like a great idea if your goal is to troll tu and possibly lose the 5 star QB you evaluated and landed and also hand the horns bragging rights for winning a head to head recruiting battle.
Jake Hubenack wrote an article for TexAgs detailing the season where both guys left. Had one stayed it would be assumed that they would've started. To lose two 5 stars at once is on the coaches. As for tOSU, they transferred as back ups and they had a starter already entrenched or another player ready to take over so it can be seen as yeah the player is doing what is best for them.DallasAggie89 said:
When we have 5 star QBs transfer something is wrong with the coach but when tOSU has 5 star QBs transfer there is something wrong with the player.
CJ Stroud is a RS Freshman and 4* recruit so not like he's a scrub.Fedup said:jsmc71 said:
FWIW, tOSU buddy told me Ewers was 4th on depth chart (without any further specifics). Doubt he has any inside info and don't know if that was based on him following rumors on tOSU fan sites or what.
If true though, he might be capable of contributing to a borderline, bowl-eligible season. Couldn't happen to a more deserving program.
Couldn't beat out stroud who is a fish. Ewers wouldn't have ever seen the field and he knew it. NIL terms or not, he'd never play. Tate Martell 2.0. Book it.
I'd love to see him transfer to sips and have Casey and Hudson both transfer out along with decommit of Malik.

So what?? Ewers couldn't beat him out, there are two teams in the playoffs with freshmen qbs and neither of them is ewers. What's your point? Ewers knew he wasn't as good and would never see the field. Dude bailed out because he's a head case and won't compete. This isn't high school anymore.

Stroud won the starting job when Fields left. All he did, Heisman, Davey O'Brien, and Manning award finalist. Kid had a great year and had the #1 total and scoring offense in his first year. Also got Elite 11 MVP. Dude is a stud. And had a whole year of learning that offense over Ewers who arrived as the season was starting. Not sure what Ewers being the starter would have changed or improved that offense.Fedup said:So what??

Yes and the highest rated head case in history of high school football couldn't see the field for even a few downs this year.RealTalk said:CJ Stroud is a RS Freshman and 4* recruit so not like he's a scrub.Fedup said:jsmc71 said:
