I still believe he'll get a shot at starting QB some day soon.

 

I'm not so sure. I think RB is his best position.  He's built for it. He came out of high school at 5'10 205.  I think a big part of him wanting to stay at Qb was the fact it was the last thing his mother saw him play.  I think as a RB... he can have a long career and Cinci had been looking at him at that position for a while based on the articles I've read.  I think he may do some wildcat... but his QB days to me are pretty much done... but I could be wrong. I'd like to be wrong in this case actually.

If Flowers had come to USF as a RB, he would have started. I don't think most of you realize most teams recruiting him out of highs school wanted him as a Safety or a RB.  I'd say this, if he decided to play RB in college, he would not had been at USF, he would have likely gone to the SEC or Miami.  All people have done is doubt the man can play positions.  He was the most instinctive and natural runner we had.  You can't teach vision and moves.  I seriously don't think many followed his high school recruitment... at least based on comments.  It's funny, I think he's going to have a better career than Mack.

This is very true. If we didn't give him a chance at QB, he wasn't coming here.

And the bottom line is, catering to his vanity likely will cost him millions. If he was a developed RB, he'd have been drafted, imo.

Vanity?  Maybe not.  Self-direction?  Perhaps.  It's his choice not vanity.

I agree if he'd been developed as a back he would have  possibly been drafted.  That decision indeed may have cost him millions... but I know his story and it wasn't catering to his vanity.  It was his mother and his way of dealing with her dying in high school.  Call it a bad decision or something... but not vanity.    He talked about why he wanted to play QB in college... there is an entire segment of USF Football TV show about him where he talks about specifically why he didn't want to change positions.

I say QF will be in the NFL for at least the next 3 years. Don't know the position(s). Don't know the team(s).

But I know the man knows football.

If he doesn't stick in the NFL, he's got one hell of a promising career as a motivational speaker.

Doubt it .... Mr George doesn't kid around. Although, not sure how many can actually make a career out of that but he definitely has message that a ton of kids to hear.
