I actually feel better after looking at this list. There are just enough that started as true Freshman and did well that it’s not unreasonable to at least hope DR can do the same.
Dylan Raiola hype train

That just blows my mind that a college freshman can fly in his receivers to practice with a professional coach. This ain’t your granddad‘s college football
I liked your post. Especially the part of you eating a giant **** sandwich. Please post the video when it happens
I'd probably do it to be good again. We need something to get us rolling.I liked your post. Especially the part of you eating a giant **** sandwich. Please post the video when it happens
If eating **** made your team better iowa would have about 40 national championships…
I think we will be surprised at how few turnovers he has this year. Maybe the least by an NU QB this decade
For the first time in a very long time we have a legit QB (although inexperienced) and a solid defense. I am not sure the last time we could have said this
Agree. The timing was amazing. Desperately needed a real qb and there is no downside to playing him. A lot of people are scared to get hurt.
2021 5-star QB Ty Thompson was just beat out of the starting job at Tulane by a redshirt freshman. Thompson transferred from Oregon to Tulane in January after Oregon brought in two highly rated transfer quarterbacks.
Former Five-Star Oregon Quarterback Beat Out At New School For Starting Role
Thompson beat out at Tulane just 10 days ahead of classmate Caleb Williams preparing his NFL debut as the #1 overall pick.
life comes at you fast.
Fortunately it seems like Dylan has both qualities in abundance: natural talent AND work ethic.
Off topic a bit, but I watched last year's Bama v. Texas game and to that point in his career, former 5* Ewers was hitting at 22% on all passes that were in the air more than 20 yards. That's pretty lousy.
Incredibly mature for a guy his age. He’s got the benefit of being coached by people who have already spent time on the mountain top. But, his willingness to be teachable is the big difference maker, IMO.
I will be clued in to see how he internalizes adversity. That rare attribute whereby you are a fierce competitor, but don’t let your emotions spin you out of control and take you out of your game.
None of our QBs last season was a five star passing god either, Simms not withstanding.
Look at the how many #1 picks were also #1 qb's coming out of high school. 3 out of the last 4 #1 picks were a #1 qb. Of course there are misses. Ask yourself if you think DR will likely be more like Spencer Rattler or more like Trevor Lawrence. You can look at some of those kids and see that they had flaws to begin with, usually maturity issues.
