Re: 2021 Camp Thread

Almost 100% chance it is Cruz, Fisch should be looking hard for a QB next year. Cruz is below average and I am not sure Noah is the type of guy who can take over as a true freshman.

Cunningham has playmaker ability that this team desperately needs on the outside. I expect big things from him and expect some game planning to get him the ball in space.

Re: Jay Dobyns

He has been at practices, reached out for what? A coaching position? We have a pretty solid coaching staff and a great WR and TE coach so I am not sure what spot you think he should be looked at for. We already have our two nepotism hires, and they have a much bigger resume on the football field.
