Layne Hatcher transfer

[RaginDave]

Interesting news this morning as Arkansas state starting QB has announced his transfer to Texas state.

[NOCajun]

Why?? Sounds like a step down to me...

[CajunVic]

Maybe it’s to avoid a sit down . . .

He’s tired of being plan B. on the State roster?

This. He was the starter against us because the other guy was hurt. They were playing two guys but Hatcher was definitely the second choice.

Hatcher is the player that kept stAte in the game vs UL.

Which is tremendously odd being that Hatcher has performed well every time he has been given a chance, but this is the 2nd coach to make him either the 2nd or a part time option. Blake Anderson did the same thing, but he is not walking into a great situation at Texas State either. Here is the TSU situation he is walking into. He probably will have the upper hand when he walks on campus, but this won't be just handed to him.

Current Starter--Brady McBride, McBride has more upside than maybe any QB in the SBC, but turnovers and injuries have plagued him since day 1. McBride was a 3 star recruit that originally signed with Memphis. My personal thoughts are the BM experience is over at Texas State.

Backup--Tyler Vitt, Vitt is a huge kid with a lot of upside as a fantastic athlete, but has struggled to throw the ball down field, he excels at the RPO and being more of a running threat QB.

Other QB's in the mix:

Ty Evans transfer from NC State held offers out of HS from NC State, Colorado, Alabama, Arizona State, Colorado State, FIU, Michigan, Northwestern, Ole Miss, South Carolina and Texas A&M.

Tanner Prewitt transfer from Arizona State, limited information on him.

I think Hatcher has the upper hand, but it will be interesting to start the 2022 season.

Some people have even said he's every bit as good as Levi Lewis, maybe better...

Haha!! One of the best ever “hot takes” on this board

[Scott Malkinson]

One has to think this is Spavs last chance.

That I do believe, I was really under the assumption he would be gone this year, but obviously he is making a run at Hatcher to save his job. Like I said earlier this to me looks like the Brady McBride experiment is over in San Marcos, which is crazy because the thinking was this kid had the chance to be one of the best QB's in the SBC at one point. I would not be surprised if we do not see BM transfer out of Texas State now.

That’s just one person . . .
