Kendal22 Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 John Rhys is also a baseball player. He saw a good bit of action for the Rebels last spring as part of an outfield platoon and a late-game pinch runner. Would be intriguing to Jeff Mercer as well.

BobSaccamanno Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Yes, he can run but does anyone know if he is an effective passer?Ā Matt Corral beating him out is understandable as he may be a first round pick.Ā He may have just moved to receiver as a way to get him on the field but he obviously wants to play QB.Ā But Allen says "dual threat" means you can throw too.Ā We can't have another season where 3rd and 5 felt like 3rd and 15.

DC2345 Posted January 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 The only transfer QBās that I know IU has had contact with that are still available are Casey Thompson, Cameron Ward, Zach Calzada, andĀ Connor Bazelak. Emory Jones still hasnāt officially entered the portal and I donāt know that he would actually be a target even if he did. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Calzada would be a huge upgrade, simply because he has experience going up against and beating the best in the country and you canāt put a price on that. Cam Ward while a bit of a wildcard is getting a lot of Lamar Jackson comparisons and thereās little thatās more exciting than that. Hereās to hoping Coach Allen can land one or the other 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
