Is NU a QB Factory?

[SciCat_rivals]

yes, according to Thorson. If he gets drafted, NU will have more QB draftees in the last decade than OSU, Mich, PSU, and Nebby.

C’mon Clayton, make us proud.....and kudos to McCall.

Interesting fact. Gives lie to a lot of the criticism of McCall.

Or maybe not. The offenses have been quite bad (sometimes unwatchable) in many of those years of having supposedly good qbs.

Maybe, but I'm not sure that offensive woes were not a function of recruiting, player development and coaching in certain others. I agree that play calling has not consistently been great, although wonder if that was a result of these factors.

i think to be "QB U" you need to have guys who are high quality starters

 

[Fitz51]

No.

No.

Debbie downer?

That stat is more impressive considering CT played so many years. We haven't had a starting QB graduate in the last four years of that decade.

The contrarian view would say McCall could've done more (MOAR!) with the NFL talent that he had.

JJTBC aside... exactly what NFL talent have we had outside of the QB room?

Talking about the QB room only. I'm just putting the contrarian view out there, not necessarily saying that's my view.

Right, but doesn’t make sense in the context of McCall as OC vs QB coach.

As I have stated, could have done more w/ Siemian (not waiting til his career was nearly over to start moving the pocket).

Also would have liked to have seen more development of CT being able to extend passing plays w/ his legs.

Is that assuming Dwayne Haskins doesn’t get drafted?

He means that if Thor gets drafted in April, then NU will have more than OSU as of a decade from his post
