Does anyone else realize that if Newton doesn't commit we probably won't have

It's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to early to say what we will and won't have in this class.

think that's that big of a deal.

Let's assume we get Newton and Relf switches to an athlete for this scenario:

We have Newton

We have Russell

We have Steagall

We have Relf in an emergency situation

That's still a little bit thin at that position, I'll admit. But I think we are going to get Miller from IAHS in the next recruiting class.

That would leave us with

Newton as a Sr.

Russell as a RS So.

Steagall as a RS So.

Relf as a Sr.

Miller as a Fr. looking to RS

That's not bad- that's five potential QB's, and they're fairly staggered as far as eligibility. Another QB besides Newton would be nice- it would just make us even deeper. And as Bill Walsh used to say "You can never have too many quarterbacks". But at the same time, with Stegall and hopefully Newton coming in, I don't think it's a dire need either.

how confident are you that we really get him? I'm ready for the egg to hurry up and be over as well as the Juco NC because Im ready to know either if we get him or not. I hope we can pull off the upset Saturday but as I said two weeks ago I have lost all hope of winning this game with our current QB's. I know Cam said everybody is even in terms of recruiting the other day but how many of you guys TRULY!!! believe we get him?

....but I think it's likely that he comes here if Newton doesn't, and still a good chance that he does, regardless.

Actually, I was too lazy to read most of the posts, but we will have a QB even if Cam Newton doesn't come (by the way, he'll be in the junction walking around with five other official visit recruits on Saturday, so look for them and chant their names, etc.) Obviously, Cam is on the top of our list, but there are other very talented JUCOs under him that we could get. Aaron Rodger's little brother, who plays JUCO in California, is one of them. Honestly, though, I'm not worried about it, because I have high hopes for Russell.
