Do they seriously consider this guy to be their "quarterback of the future"?
He's a poor man's 2018 troy anderson.

I don’t know, shsu gave up a lot of yards and points to Incarnate Word yesterday (granted almost all of those yards were in the pass game). Almost lost the game and didn’t look all that great. They will definitely be tougher than UT Martin though.

He's a tough SOB and runs well when playing against defenses that can't contain him. I'd assume MSU is going to look at a transfer or two to help the QB room but if they want to just keep their offense as a run-heavy/option offense, he seems like a good fit.

You’re right the kid is just a Freshman so his passing game should improve. Yet thus far he hasn’t shown an ability to pass. I was at their Idaho game. Kid’s running ability was al la Troy Andersen but his one down field throw was an off target floater and certainly a pick if Vandal DB wasn’t so bad.
The cats won’t win without some passing threat. Roving better be getting some reps this week. Tommy can rotate in and out, or go into the backfield. Yet if MSU is 80-20 run-pass (with 35% completion rate) Sam Houston will stack the box and destroy them like the Grizzlies did.

The 3 time class AA All State QB can throw deep. Proved it many times over the years.

Like the Griz, SHSU gives up nothing on the ground. Loose against the pass. Cats have no pass. Like against the Griz, poor matchup for the cats.HookedonGriz said:daGrizJ said:The Cats will be lucky if they score 1 TD against SHSU.
