Olds, did you not watch the NAU game this season?
Yes, I watched that game and other NAU games as well.
In our game with NAU, RJ was the best thing NAU had going. He was quick and made some very good passes. The game was way closer than it should have been. We played, what I would call, our worst game of the year and NAU was really up for that game. RJ was the best player on a bad team. He stood out in most games because he was just about all they had. He looked to me like a dual threat QB with average arm strength, but with good accuracy. I did not think he was better than Barron. He is on the small side, but makes up for it with his speed and quickness. The QB at PSU is a similar sort of guy.
Here is what we don't know. Why is he leaving NAU? Was it to get closer to home? Was he asked to leave? Was he not getting along with teammates or coaches? Was he struggling in the classroom? Does he have issues outside of football and school?
I'm sure that our coaches looked into all of that. I'm sure that Baylor did as well. We don't know what his offers really were or why he chose to do what he did.
When both of our top 2 QBs entered the portal it left us scrambling to find experience at the position. Although, we have two 3* rated freshmen coming in, and one due back from a mission the following year, it's hard to think about that position room having almost no experience in a D1 game. That all changed when Kylan Weisser decided to stay. We have seen what he can do and we are comfortable with it. Would we take a high level QB if one were to fall our way? Maybe, but it isn't such a high priority for now.
