I always wondered why the hell UVA kept on with Greyson Lambert instead of Matt Johns. Right away in that UCLA game it was clear that Matt Johns had the mentality to open up the offense and actually threaten the defense in all areas of the field.

 

Then again it sounds to me like Mike London has really botched and mishandled the QB position up at UVA about as badly as Willie Taggart has in Tampa.

 

I guess in a recent conference call with reporters the offensive coordinator said that Matt Johns sits atop the depth chart for now only because he just barely graded ahead of the rest of the quarterbacks, but that it's a fluid situation. Then the head coach Mike London jumped on and said the competition wasn't close, that they won't be heading into August with two guys fighting for the spot. That's what immediately preceded Lambert's transfer.

 

South Florida is likely a year too late to try and recruit Lambert as a transfer. A year ago they were still running a pro style offense with an offensive coach that had coached in the pros, and Willie had a strong connection with Jim Harbaugh who at the time was a coach in the pros. Those things would have attracted a Greyson Lambert. Now, that's all gone. Harbaugh's at Michigan, Willie scapegoated and fired his offensive coaches, installed a decidedly not pro style system. and we're very likely stuck with Quinton Flowers.

 

On the bright side, Willie is so indecisive that we'll probably see another quarterback take the field before the first game is even through.

Potential landing spots including USF: http://www.todaysu.com/college-football/5-potential-landing-spots-for-virginia-qb-transfer-greyson-lambert/

South Florida: I only mention USF because landing Lambert could potentially save Willie Taggart’s job. In his first two years, his quarterbacks have combined to complete 47.8 percent of their passes for 18 touchdowns and 27 interceptions, as the passing game finished dead last nationally in Passer Efficiency Rating in 2013 (91.1), and 116th (107.6) in 2014. With Mike White—the only QB who had found some form of success—transferring to Western Kentucky, the situation again looks grim. Lambert would be an upgrade to either Steven Bench or Quinton Flowers, and could provide some balance to what’s been a one-dimensional approach with running back Marlon Mack. Besides, who wouldn’t want to live in Tampa?

If he ends up at UConn, I'm going to poop in CWT's office.

Meaning people will draw their own conclusions without prompt?

 

Or that this thread will live much longer than it should?

 

Truth is, he followed Golson, too, and that didn't work.

Did you want Metamucil or Benefiber to help facilitate the "gift?" :guinness:
