He in no way will challenge QF as the 'best quarterback' in school history. However he is the best pure passer and he could easily be a second or third round pick, if not late-first.

only reason....here for 2 yrs max

But he might do something that all of the “great” QBs in the past could not do...when us a conference championship.

That's the stat that matters.  Anyway it's only two games so...  Remember when we lost to Houston and UCF?  Long way to go.

Grothe will always be my goat...bc that was my era.  QF is just special but if barnettt continues to play with a heart of a lion, he might very well be at the top of the list.

Barnett is a 6'5" Grothe imho.

G5 doesn't matter.  There have been a ton of successful QBs that are not from the P5.  A lot of first round draft picks actually.  Blake Barnett is going to be our highest drafted QB in school history.  He's going early... he's just getting better. 

Blake Barnett against NFLer Mike White, who do you take?

Barnett. He’s better than White and I liked White from the minute I saw him against Houston. Barnett is a pure passer... good enough to have a long career in the NFL. If only our guys could catch his beautiful dimes. We’re leaving points on the board weekly due to poor route running, stone hands, etc.

Blake can thread a needle from 40 yards.

I understand your sentiment; QF was a GREAT "football player", as a pure quarterback, he was just good; he had a good arm but couldn't make the NFL throws consistently. This is in no way a slight against him, he is arguably the best player in USF history and one of the best people we have had, and that's a rare combination.

Really enjoyed watching Barnett out there. He’s got some wheels too.
