I’m glad that C.J. Stroud is good because dismissing prospects purely on the historical output of the school they played for was always loving stupid.

BlindSite posted:Can a guy really be "dismissed" for either when he went where he did? I’m just talking about posters, not GMs. Not that Ohio State needs someone to cape for them, but it was tiresome to see “never draft an Ohio State QB” every time they had a prospect, as if there was any connection between like, Art Schlichter and Justin Fields.

Do we have a draft thread up yet this year?

Isn't Sam Howell on pace for like 90?

Main thing with Penix is injury history and that he never faces pressure. He used to be extremely dangerous on the ground and now he just sits back there picking secondaries apart because of his knees + he doesn't need to move.

I also don't get the McCarthy hype but admittedly I am biased. He's more dynamic than most Michigan QBs that go day 3 if at all, but he also doesn't have to do anything. He did not officially record a pass attempt in the entire second half against their best opponent.

fsif posted:Mr. Irrelevant isn't the one reason people keep doubting Purdy—it's also his name. "Brock Purdy" isn't a proper MVP quarterback name. It doesn't even sound like the type of name you give to a child on purpose. What if I told you he has a brother currently playing college ball who goes by Chubba?

Even wilder when you consider that Randall was the most elusive quarterback maybe ever up to that point. If you put a generic stiff of that era in that situation he gets sacked on 50% of dropbacks.

Alaois posted:I remember when Bryce won his Heisman it really just felt like "really? nobody else did poo poo this year so just give it to the bama qb by default?" In the regular season he threw for 3900 yards, 40 TDs and 4 interceptions on an 11-1 team. Not an insane season but a pretty reasonable Heisman winner.

C. Everett Koop posted:That was a "let's give the Heisman to the QB on the best team" year but no one wanted to give the Heisman to Stetson Bennett so it went to Bryce instead. Stetson threw for under 2,000 yards in the regular season and wasn't even 100% secure in the starting job in the early part of the season. 2022 is the genuine Stetson Bennett Heisman campaign. Stroud and Kenny Pickett (lol) were the other finalists with a bone thrown to Aidan Hutchinson (should've been Kenneth Walker).

Pain of Mind posted:That is how I interpreted "overall" as well, but what is confusing me is that that statement true is for the examples I gave as well, but I must be interpreting the statement incorrectly since everyone is telling me so (without any playoff qualifiers). The novelty is it happening in the conference championship game of all places. Purdy is basically the only Mr. Irrelevant who has ever actually been Relevant.
