If they give him a lane, he can make a defense pay with his feet. Its not like he's Peyton Manning, he just won't create running opportunities like Q did.

Disagree....I mean the man is 6'-5".  Appeared mobile for that height.  He ran like a QB that's a few inches shorter, IMO.

We can agree to disagree. I'm not going to read too much into one highlight from an interesting angle, with no pads. I'm not saying that he can't be mobile, but I wouldn't go saying he has "wheels" based upon this one clip.

Why so much hate for Barnett? He's the teams best QB.

Listen if he is faster than Mike White he has a chance.

Check out his JR year highlights which show a few of his runs. At :53 looks quite Grothe\Flowers- esque.

At the very minimum he isn't a statue like some of our past pocket passing quarterbacks in the past so this makes

me feel alot better about him.   As long as he doesn't pull a Floyd on the the field when the game is live he will be ok if he wins the job.

It looks like he's one of those long striders who look slow but are actually covering a decent amount of ground. The run at 1.36  looks pretty decent too.

Yeah, I agree. Granted this is HS speed and size he faced, so who knows if college would be different. His accel looks okay, but the top speed looks pretty darn good. If he's improved any of that, great.

Other takeaway from those highlights (yeah, I know, it's only the stuff he did right that year) I liked is 1) he didn't get shaken under pressure 2) didn't seem afraid of the contact, and 3) threw really well on the run. He may very well be the one to beat, we'll find out soon.

Riley Ferguson had a ton of success at Memphis and he was big.  I think Barnett has a higher chance of being a better QB and has more weapons to work with on offense as a whole. He’ll be fine.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
