Went to check NCSU's sched and saw this little blurb:

 

 

  1. USF or NC State for Bench after visits? 

     

    Steven Bench's visit with USF went very well. Bench then made a trip to North Carolina State. The impression USF made might be hard to overcome for the other schools being considered.

I wonder to what extent people look down on Super Bowl winning Joe Flacco because he played at Delaware. 

 

Not just Flacco, Kaepernick (Nevada), Big Ben (Miami of Ohio), Tony Romo (Eastern Ill), the list goes on. It's not like it used to be, no matter where you play if you play good enough, an NFL team will know about you.

I'll bet $120.6 million he doesn't give a ****.

Okay, I don't know anything about Mr. Bench; I refuse to research until he signs with USF.

 

But here's the thing. If he can't get a starting job at Penn State, should he be worrying about the NFL right now?

He was only at PSU one year and played as a true freshman. Yes he didn't win the starting job this year (in the spring btw) but PSU just brought in a good JUCO to start. Isn't like the kid road 3rd string for 3 years and wants to transfer.

They've also got a 500 lbs gorilla in the room by the name of Christian Hackenberg. Many considered Hackenberg the top pro style QB prospect in the nation.

 

Bench very correctly read the writing on that wall.

 

But I agree with the point that Bench needs to have his eyes on the road rather than on the horizon.

Former Arkansas QB Brandon Mitchell said Monday he will enroll at NC State

 

 

Looks like NC state is not an option

So now it's us or Miss State where he'd have to fight to start....and he won't over Tyler Russell.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
