Is Kelly Bryant seriously a possibility?

Yes he did great at Auburn. That was not the point. My point was what did he do PRIOR to Auburn that what make anyone think he was a game changer? Being the backup to Tebow? Stealing a computer?

I just don't see how anyone can say Bryant 100% isn't a program changer when these same people were saying Cam Newton was not.

He also won a National Championship in JUCO. And did it in impressive style.

if he can get us more wins than the person we would have started, im obviously in favor of it, but if he comes, there will be a logjam at qb and we need to make the wise step going forward.

What did Cam Newton do prior to his Auburn career that made you believe he was a program changer? Yawn

Can't tell if serious. Mullen said "program changer" himself, but it was obvious to anyone he was a program changer before he put on the Auburn uniform.

C'mon man!

You can certainly say that Bryant isn’t the same caliber player as Newton. We wouldn’t be having this conversation because Bryant wouldn’t have been benched.

And it feels like our memories are different on the buzz around Newton. It feels like everyone knew that he was a generational talent that would elevate his new team in ways that few others could.

Everyone knew it except this guy apparently. That should tell you all you need to know about his insight unless he's Kelly Bryant's dad or Kelly Bryant himself.

Kelly Bryant will most likely be an undrafted free agent if that tells you anything. And Cam...well I think he was not only a program changer in college, but also a franchise player in the NFL.

Give me a break.

Hope that’s the case because I like KT, and I feel like he’s been very patient in waiting his turn.

I don’t know, though... When you’ve got a season that went down the drain fairly early along with a severely struggling 5th yr senior at QB, it just seems highly odd that Moorhead hasn’t even hinted at wanting to give KT a shot. It’s beyond simply thinking that Nick is better. It’s like there has been zero chance all year that KT would ever play barring a major injury to Fitz, and that’s pretty odd if your expectation is for the kid to be your guy next year.

I severely hope that I’m wrong, but I think that Moorhead nearly has his mind made up that he’s going to put his career in Shrader’s hands next year, and he’ll either live or die with him

My totally uneducated rationale is just the way the games happened. I don't think it would be productive to make a move on the road in a hostile environment - yeah they'll have to do it eventually, but it could just make a bad situation worse. Florida was really bad, but probably against a defense that would have blitzed the hell out of KT like the did Fitz. And Auburn and A&M we were rolling.

I largely agree with you. I think if he's our only option as a grad transfer QB, it's okay to take him, but I trust what Joe would do in that situation. I'm not in the KT sucks and is always going to be a worse passer than Fitz camp though either.[/Q


With the situation with KT, a Nick Saben would bring in a heart beat...........

That could certainly be the case. I feel like there simply has to be a method to Moorhead’s madness, but I’ll be damned if it isn’t mind-numbingly difficult to figure it out at times

Ok, so I know this will get some snide remarks since it came from Bleacher Report, but I happened to be reading an article on Kelly Bryant this morning when I suddenly saw the below quote...

“Along with Missouri, Bryant also intends to visit North Carolina and Arkansas, while Mississippi State is also an option.”

It probably doesn’t mean squat until an official visit confirmed, but if we’re actually in the running, I had no idea


You want to get about 75% of our fanbase that wants Kelly Bryant to change their mind. Remind them that he was a 3 star.
