Did Miss St kill any chance we had for Kelly Bryant?

My personal opinion differs from most. MS St loss is not going to affect his decision. As bad as we look right now, it is not an indication of what we look next year. We have some pieces and played some good games and we have a great recruiting class coming. If he comes here and AR make a stride, he becomes beneficiary of the success. That being said, I prefer for him to go somewhere else. We have to look for long-term and not rely on a band-aid fix. We better off showing loyalty to those who signed with us and spending their eligibility for us.

Well I absolutely disagree with the last part of your comment. We potentially have a long term solution with KJ, but it would be preferable for him to redshirt as a freshman. What better way to spend your freshman year than to be mentored by a senior adept at running the offense? You put him in as starter and you could destroy him from the get-go.

And there is no other QB on the roster who has the physical tools to do it.

KB would be the perfect bridge to the long term future

So you think KJ starts next year if KB doesn’t come?
He won’t even be here till fall camp.

If KJ starts we are in a world of hurt again - may be anyway. He’s raw and needs a year to mature.

If KB goes elsewhere we need to find another grad transfer/JUCO if they don’t think Connor or JSJ will be ready.

He’ll be here in May, not August. But I get your point. That being said, he is very talented and a fit for what they want to do be it next year or the year after.
