Let'sGoZips94 Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 ... in your golden, fleece diapers... please let it be Ty Thompson, and please help Ty Thompson decide to commit to Akron. Here are the two potential Cal QBs possibly referenced... Sam Jackson V Ben Finley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72 Roo Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 It seems there is very little excitement on this year's signing date. We may have picked up some players who will help, but they and we need a QB as first to tenth priority. After a QB it is OL talent upgrades. With that being obvious to all I've got to believe Joe is too smart not to be in the process of taking care of the QB issue first. The relative quiet leads me to hope that behind the scenes new winning QB talent will be acquired. That's all I want for Christmas!

Slam_Hilliard22 Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 (edited) Ty Thompson would be a huge get but I'm skeptical they could bring him in. It is interesting tough that Thompson is followed on X by the AD Guthrie, maybe they are trying to bring him...

Edit: I hope you're not getting at the possibility of KSUcks getting this guy. He's tough and could absolutely be a difference maker in the MAC. He's better than anyone we trotted out onto the field this year. We'd have won 6 games w/ Labas at QB.

He's better than anyone we trotted out onto the field this year. We'd have won 6 games w/ Labas at QB. Just a stark contrast between a 2021 3 star vs a 2023 2 star. If social media is any indication, we haven’t offered Labas. I’m curious to see if that changes with Labas working out with Maendler. I know JoeMo respects what Maendler has to say about QBs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let'sGoZips94 Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Market on Ty Thompson is quiet. Oregon State and Arizona or Arizona State filled their QB holes. Those were the top projected landing spots for Ty. Anybody know if he's receiving offers, if we've offered, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen anything about that outside of here. Hope it happens, but not banking on it. I imagine he still has some P5 options on the table.

I would also imagine he has P5 options on the table, but it's eerily quiet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
