Let's face it, we have not seen the new offense. We've been used to the offense built around the QB since day one of USF football.

 

Could be it that we are (me!) over paranoid about having a good QB behind center?

 

Let's suppose that all we need is someone to hold on to the ball and do an okay job, not a Grothe or a B.J. Daniels to do magic tricks for us to win a game.

 

But I keep hearing it's a complicated offense. That part worries me; it makes holding on to the snap that much harder!

I think that if Matt can overcome his inability to take a snap that he'll be a nice QB. Complicated doesn't mean that it requires a great athlete. Usually means someone who needs to be able to make changes in plays and or formations.

I don't want to talk or think about the mess that is our QB situation. We are honestly saying things like "if he can consistently handle snaps from under center we could be ok". Those are things you say when discussing a high school QB situation not at a FCS school. My magic 8 ball says "the future is bleak".

Sad when our fans don't even know what subdivision we are in. Times are tough right now.

So you want to know more about the QB position?

"Quarterback (QB, originally called blocking back)[1] is a position in American and Canadian football. Quarterbacks are members of the offensive team and line up directly behind the offensive line. Quarterbacks are the leaders of the offensive team, responsible for calling the play in the huddle."

Not a good situation, lack of experience, lack of depth and can't take a snap or hit...yikes

If Floyd can't handle a snap by now it's not going to happen.  Move on people.

Agree.

Did he have this problem in high school?

Couldn't agree more. You wouldn't say you've got a kid playing SS on the baseball team that can hit, run, has a great glove, just can't seem to figure out how to throw to first. He's in college for christsakes, how are we having this conversation?

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
