qbs needed at usf

[smazza]

with grothe unable to beat out pj i sense that the qb postion will be wide open and a stud frosh would be able to come in and start

next year is a grest opportunity for the freshman stud qb to come in and play

grothe needs to improve his game if he is ever going to be a #1

[bulls96go]

sadly i am starting to come to the same conclusion

with a RS year to learn the playbook, if the skills to Start at a D1a program was there he would have beaten out PJ. (unless PJ is that improved which is doubtful)

So grothe may have the talent that can be developed into a d1a starting QB, but it seems clear he does not have those skills right now or PJ would be sitting. (would broehm, manning, scheffer be sitting behind PJ at tyhis point, i think not)

and this is painfull for me to say, i think we should continue looking for that QB of the future. Grothe may be serviceable (and that is all we need) and shine in his JR and SR years but so far i am underwhelmed.

i also hope JL is trying to keep a stud hidden and i will be happily suprised if that is the case- but for now i wait...and hope!

usf needs to always look to upgrade  each position until they win a NC

[BullsFanInTX]

That goes without saying.  According to all the quotes by Leavitt, the QB play is greatly improved this fall.  Maybe they both have improved.  Let's at least see them play this year before jumping to conclusions about this year.  If after 3-4 games they are stinking it up, then bash the qb's but wait to see how it pans out.

grotheee appears to have intangibles but needs right OC to call proper plays

It's interesting to read the expert smazza

And now just 6 months later, QB is our strongest position according to smazza

you guys need to pay attention

situation change fast at d1a level

grothe is  great no doubt

what is so hard to follow????

[Bull Dozer]

Smazza still has a point here.  Other than Grothe our QB position is pretty weak (mostly because we havent seen anyone else).  We still need to recruit the position hard and make sure we have someone there that can fill in and do a good job if Matt goes down.
