Right or wrong, we moved on a lonnnnnnng time ago.I thought we made a push for him (after dumping Litton), but he was already locked into SMU & he snubbed us (or, just stuck with his plan). Clearly he wasn't too enamored with SMU, and I don't think he's different enough from Mike White for us to want him (I think Flowers would bring a new threat/dimension).Harris's mobility and offer list is better than White's was , more size/weight as wellHarris was rated higher, for sure. But as shown with Bortles, stars aren't everything. How many schools ignored Bortles 4 years ago, and have been kicking themselves the past few years?UCF looks to have a few QBs a fresh/sophs, which should be interesting.

Not sure if can't, or just aren't good at it (or if that distinction matters, given the end result). I see plenty of good QBs at smaller schools (the MAC seems loaded with them) and 2nd or 3rd string QBs at biggers school who could likely start & succeed here. I just wonder if we don't cast our net wide enough. This isn't a new problem, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the easiest positions for the Knights to recruit. Then wheres yalls 5* qb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we know any of those QB's are good? We don't until they hit the field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
