Maiava is their starter at least in theory. They pushed Miller out for him. Crazier things have happened but Beau needs assurances he'll start. That's not USC IMOUSC would be a great spot for him.
Always thought Levis was a good QB but he was a drop back passer in an RPO system. Bad match.Yes, he really sucked leading us to victory at Wisconsin. That was easy W and not like they had Oregon on ropes either. I may not be expert but Levis was backup who no one thought had accuracy to be in NFL, let alone starter at PSU. It was PSU system at time that did not work for Will, not Will himself. If AK makes it to year 3 then he might love having Beau in his QB system.
This is based on what? You constantly complain that inserting Beau into a game throws Allar's rhythm off. What about Beau's rhythm?
I would argue that you don't know. When Beau is in the game for a mop up series we don't pass as much because we are ahead, and we don't play the first team. We are running down the clock. Otherwise Beau is coming into the game ice cold. He has to be ready physically but even more so somehow he has to make a downfield passing read without being in the game enough to get a feel for the defense.
Beau has made some great passes into tight windows. Does he have Allar's arm? No. But that doesn't mean he can't be a great passer.
I would argue that the Steelers right now do not have a QB who has both a strong arm and is a great passer. There are many other teams where this is true as well. So to say that Beau is not very good is not only condescending, but very likely just plain false.
I think you are going to be proven wrong, especially if Beau winds up on a team with a good offensive system fit.
This move disappoints me but I am 100% behind the decision given the constraints. The longer he waits the fewer the opportunities. In this case he needs a system match. Would be a great fit at a service academy, but I think his passing will surprise once he can play every down.
Not gonna happen. Knows the playbook? There is no guarantee Coach K will be @ PSU after 2025.What are chances that Beau leaves PSU for one year and returns to be starter after Allar leaves. Probably 75% chance that it is no but I would not dismiss it. He loves PSU and dream was to be the starter. We have no idea if Smolik or Grunk will be ready. Beau knows the playbook and approach.
Who is now coaching UCF since Malzahn left?Iowa
Mizzou
UCF
3 names that's out there.
I thought that was one of the possibilities because Flacco had previioouusly gone that route.Delaware. Family connection and it worked for Flacco.

Does Beau really fit Iowa or UCF? Mizzou is the best fit from a scheme perspective and the best program so if true hopefully it works out for him.
If he goes to Iowa I will throw up.Iowa

Right. And not because I’m against him at a B1G school. But go to Indiana or somewhere else.If he goes to Iowa I will throw up.
Not counting Tayven out as future IU starter, but if Cig ends up signing Mendoza from Cal (his little brother is already on team at IU), I wont be surprised if Tayven hits the portal. I hope not as he does have talent and won a big game vs Washington this year. Arm strength and foot speed are not the issues. A bit mechanical though. Seems his reading defenses and correct reads in RPO have been things questioned.I think Tayven Jackson is their guy moving forward but maybe
Pat Devlin (backup to Daryl Clark) went to Delaware after the '08 season I think.I thought that was one of the possibilities because Flacco had previioouusly gone that route.
Who is Pat Devlin?Pat Devlin (backup to Daryl Clark) went to Delaware after the '08 season I think.
Look him up. He played QB for us and transferred to Delaware.Who is Pat Devlin?
Wake and their rpo offense would've been a nice fit- but Dave Clawson was kicked upstairs. New coach may be different and hasn't been named yet anyway...I'm thinking prhaps West Virginia, Cincinnati, James Madison, Wake Forest, NC State, or even an FCS program like Delaware.
What say you?
That would be funny. Mizzou and UCF so make the most sense. He's going to leave here to battle Underwood? First pick he throws the fans turn on him for the freshman. No vet should want that roleFeeling like it is Michigan.
I thought that same thing yesterday....as crazy as it sounds.....What are chances that Beau leaves PSU for one year and returns to be starter after Allar leaves. Probably 75% chance that it is no but I would not dismiss it. He loves PSU and dream was to be the starter. We have no idea if Smolik or Grunk will be ready. Beau knows the playbook and approach.
I really don't want him in the Big Ten, don't want us to have to play against him but wish him the best wherever he lands. I think he would be great at WVA or in the ACC.Right. And not because I’m against him at a B1G school. But go to Indiana or somewhere else.
Yeah, he won't let it go about Marchiol over Greene and Greene is blah, blah, blah. Greene could hurt us at times but he won a lot of games for us. Lando just cherry picks his criticism and ignores what he did in other games like last night. If not for Greene we're not even in that game. But he'll rake him over the coals for that one INT at the end.Are you a WVU fan? Why are you so hung up on Marchiol? He's been in their program for 3 years and hasn't done anything besides a 50% completion rate and he couldn't beat out Greene, who has been horrible this year. He stinks. WVU stinks. And Rich Rod NEEDS a dual threat vs. a pocket passer. Just look at his time at Michigan and Arizona beyond the Pat White/WVU years.
Didn't he come in to help close out a win vs uh-high-ya?Look him up. He played QB for us and transferred to Delaware.
Yes he did.Didn't he come in to help close out a win vs uh-high-ya?
Yep, scored the key TD on a sneak in '08 in Columbus after Clark got hurt.Didn't he come in to help close out a win vs uh-high-ya?
