Haha. I know Brady was really high on Purdue even before McCulley committed. Jackson is a dual threat so maybe it helped pave the way even more for Brady.

Brady schedule compared to the MIC is like FCS vs FBS Oh I’m guessing it’s awful. MIC is in a class of it’s own. Do you think Brady is solid even with the crappy competition he faces?

Maybe mix in some option QB packages from time to time but I think his future is elsewhere but who knows. Allen seems to be out of central casting for a QB in Brohm’s system.

Do you think Brady is solid even with the crappy competition he faces? They play 4 or 5 of the worst schools in the state. (My team plays 2 or 3 of the worst, so its not like I'm singling out Allen). I would think Brady is at least a high 3 star guy. Like a top 600 player. Could be a top 400 (ish). Its very hard to evaluate young QBs. Like Jacksons competition level compared to Bradys would be so hard to judge. I'm still confused by the RPO comment that was made above. Gibson Southern runs a ton of RPO (which essentially has an OL downfield every play but whatever)... now maybe we don't think Brady can do that at the next level, but he is very Sudfeld to me. I like Allen, I'd be thrilled if we were to get him.. I do think DM is better though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And two on the roster for two more years after this one (probably). If we took one in 22 we would have 5 QBs on scholarship in the 2022-2023 school year. 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming football is played this fall, Gibson Southern will play a much stronger schedule due to conference realignment. They've added games with Columbus North, Owensboro (KY), Mt. Vernon, Washington, and Boonville while retaining games with Southport, Southridge, Heritage Hills, and Princeton. Forest Park, South Spencer, North Posey, Pike Central, and Tell City all drop off the schedule. Much more challenging for Gibson Southern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly doubtful they don’t take one in ‘22. Yeah I agree. He said made it seem like we had to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 After what happened that one year when Sudfeld got hurt and a tiny true freshman Diamont had to play, I’m all for a qb in each class. At that time, we went from riches to rags. We were really deep at one point, but lost two good quarterbacks in Coffman and Roberson to transfer. If even just Coffman had stayed I think we go bowling that year. Anyway, I just use that as an example. You don’t need a 4 star stud in each class, but it’s good idea to have somebody solid who could step in. Every other year, you could get a big time guy and in the off years get somebody who is team oriented, smart, gritty, and could step in and command the team.

It is just not that if the coaches want a QB in every class it probably has to do with if a QB would want to come in and be 5th on the depth chart.

It definitely does no doubt. I thought I remembered reading even before covid that he wanted to make a decision the summer before his junior year so maybe he’s just ready to be done with the whole process. Can’t say I’d blame him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of recruiting I hate but I'd rather be in that company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point you’ll always have that nervous feeling up until signing day haha. I also am hoping his early commitment could help set the tone for the rest of our class like it did a few years ago when Karlaftis committed early in his junior year too. Always helpful when you have a highly regarded guy on board so early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if leaning is the right word but from what we’re hearing, we should have a good shot. His mom was at Purdue when Brees was there and apparently Joe has grown up rooting for us. Not a slam dunk but it certainly can’t hurt. Plus he seemed pretty excited about Allen committing and I’m guessing Brady will be in his ear to commit.
