Kerwin Bell assumes ‘total control’ of USF offense

[BrassBulls12]

Though still considered rare it does happen, when the players have plans. If this kid's plan was to go to D1 asap, he would be working towards it. If it wasn't, then Bell's hiring wouldn't have changed that. In any case all of the goals listed as possible motivations are still there a year later without having to miss a season of playing time. There's also a trophy in DII that he just missed out on.

Fine, I concede. There is no way Wells would want to come to USF. We shouldn't even discuss the possibility.

This is definitely not the place for discussion or exchange of opinions.

Saying he won't come here is an opinion, saying it's impossible to graduate in three years is neither fact nor opinion.

I rephrased my statement to say it was unlikely that he was graduating in three years. I stand by that.

Again, graduating in three years is hard, but not unlikely. Wanting something to be true and it actually being true are very different things. 

 

It is unlikely that a football player is graduating in just three years. Unless you can show that more than 50% of NCAA football players graduate in 3 or less years, you are incorrect. As you said, wanting something to be true and it actually being true are very different things.

Considering we are pulling the notion of him transfering here out of thin air, I don't think having the opinion of it not happening is to egregious.

Gotcha. I'll ignore that you said there was no way he could do it so we don't have to go back and forth on this all day.

If that's the bar then how many coaches bring their starting QB's with them when moving to a new program?  My guess is less than 50%

I agree completely. I don’t recall it ever happening. Although Scott Frost took his back up QB with him to Nebraska last year. 

I just thought it was an interesting idea. Very little chance it happens for any number of reasons. But I will say that Rogan Wells’ older brother played for Kerwin at Jacksonville. Maybe the ties are strong enough. Who knows.
