Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
Saw this yesterday. No surprise. I wish the young man well.

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
With Ben and chandler returning he was set to be 4 on the depth chart. Not really surprising, do think he is talented though

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
Ben has an ACL injury no one knows how he will recover from that. As of right now they have 2 QB’s on the roster for spring practice that is awfully thin. I have even heard Ben is considering a medical red shirt. Des better look at picking a QB up in the portal. 2 isn’t enough to go into a season and run a practice with a scout team unit.

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
Well, if he takes a medical, we either have to move LL back to QB or get a young backup QB through the portal, JC or HS. We can't go into fall camp with a 2 deep roster at QB.

I am thinking that LL2 will probably still get some emergency reps anyway.

Even if we have enough QBs on the roster, there should always be a wildcat package just for LL in case we are ever in the position USM was in last year.

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
There were several PWO QBs on the team this year...

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
Except they moved to different positions. Dale Martin is now a WR and Wesley maze moved to LB.

There was the kid from ND of Crowley but he left the team. Can you name any? They don’t list any on the roster?

Martin played at the same school as cajun_lannister. Those guys are built different.

We offered this guy. Wonder if CMD would entertain bringing in someone like him? Could cause problems but with the portal, you better have a full room of QB's. Least, that's what CBN told me when I asked why he had 8 QBs on the roster before 21' season.

He can entertain Rick, but I doubt we can match the NIL opportunities he will receive. It could also be he plans to enroll somewhere in January but has announced it.

I get that T, just throwing out a situational issue that needs to be addressed because our QB room looks pretty light right now.

We’ve got two quarterbacks who believe they should be the starter, and an injured one who may or may not be ready ever, or in September. We probably need quarterback prospects who might not be ready to start for a couple seasons and happy to grown their abilities in supporting backup roles for a two or three seasons.

That other guy said Ben will take the opening snap in 2023. LOL

Instead of you regurgitating what other posters think, I would like to know what you think.

I have stated what I think plenty of times. I am now hearing Ben may take a medical red shirt. If he doesn't he still will not be the opening day starter.

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
Why would any Cajun fan tend to want to diminish the will and fortitude of a player who may be determined to be the opening day starter regardless of the known rehab that he will need to undergo to make that appearance . . . He should be getting nothing but unwavering support . . .

Jameis Winston returned for opening day in about the same time frame so it’s definitely not impossible.

Re: Zy McDonald in the portal
We will have plenty of QB depth when Walker Howard transfers in.

Winston clearly wasn’t healthy.
