Wouldn't that be an interesting 1-year addition to the QB room...

He was very highly touted at one point wasn't he?
Was only a 3-start on 247 Composite, but did win the Texas HS championship; wasn't recruited much. Ended up at Baylor for Rhule's first year; went 11-3 as a junior, losing to Georgia in the Sugar Bowl.

I think he could help us a lot. I hope we are looking at him.
What's his QB draw game like?
😂. Nice. I was actually hoping we could get a guy on the squad that can throw the ball down the field.
Having a QB that could sling it around would be a complete revamp of an offense that has no real passing game outside of a bunch of smoke and mirrors.
You need receivers that can make contested catches an separate more often than no for these deep downfield dreams. Hendon and QP have the atm but what use is it really put too when you don't have a recognized deep threat
Neither of those guys were good dropback passers imo. Strong arm. Zero vision. Poor accuracy.
I agree. My point is no real receiving threat. Haven't had on near the level of cam or IAF. Big Play Tre maybe but he's not nearly as consistent a threat as those two were mainly IAF. As much as I loved the guy even he wouldn't be the NO1 somewhere else. He'd be a legit 2 or maybe a Co-1. I understand this is an unpopular opinion but hey.
I am not sure this kid should be playing football anymore. He has had like 8 concussions. I worry about his long term health.
I thought so, too, but apparently the big one that made headlines (Sugar Bowl) was a neck injury, not a concussion. His total is 3 concussions.
Not providing commentary here on if that's too many or not, just that the media assumed concussion and ran with it before it was verified.
My first thought when I saw the transfer news was "well there's next year's qb." We've got the big brother connection, and if Fuente stays, he's got the Baylor connection.
Yikes
Why yikes. Seriously curious- the guy is likely better than any qb currently on our roster. Or was the yikes regarding the Fuente Baylor connection?
See him play all the time reminds me of his brother in how they play tough but has a lot of limitations.
Good passer or not?
He has some decent accuracy just lacks some of the physical tools to make some throws .
I still think if big bro didn't break his collar bone we would have had a chance to sweep the Ohio State home/away with him. Would have been insane and given Beamer a ton of momentum
I agree, he improved in his second year with us
so what you're saying is #TX2VT after all?
#TXtx2VT, apparently
I could see Fuente bringing him in wherever he is coaching next year.
Oooooh, free agent QB in the portal. Must sign him!
-Justin Fuente.

My wife is a Baylor grad and we watch most of their games. Brewer has definitely had his ups and downs. Upside is he is super tough because he takes a beating every game. Can also extend plays with his feet. Downside is that his decision making seems to have gotten worse since Rhule left. He's had a down year overall. He and BB are comparable in my mind. If I had to choose between the two for next year, give me BB.
Must run in the family.
Beat me to it. Michael was a damn warrior. That guy played his nuts off and took a beating for our team
What recent quarterback for the Hokies has not taken a beating for our team?
Tyrod?
Does it count as recent when we've played 10 full seasons since he left?
Stop reminding me of how old I am!
It doesn't. I was helping make his point.
Drew Harris, Dwayne Lawson
lol...savage
Drew Harris was a RB. But still a good burn.
I mean we've played TEs at both OL and QB. Positions don't me anything these days, right?
Plus a TE returns our punts. Why not plug a future hole in the OL with a RB?
If Fuente is here next, him and Cornfu will screw him up.
Given the trajectory he's already on I would fear for Brewer's life.
Hey Baylor I will trade you a Head Coach for a QB, deal?
So remember that guy that stole a profile pic from a retired Texas weatherman and started posting random BS on Twitter about our coaching situation?
He's back:
I mean, there has to be a high probability, right?
That guy is the worst.
so diabolical. I kind of admire it.
Wtf does "Sic 'Em" have to do with Hokie or Baylor football?
Sic Em is one of the traditions/mottos of Baylor football.

If we know the person running the account is a fraud, why are we expanding the platform by resharing here?
He told Brett freaking McMurphy that Fuente staying was wrong. He's certainly got some balls.
At first I thought it was just a sociopathic troll, but he actually blocks people and deletes tweets when he is called out for being wrong. He truly believes everything he says.
or thats just one more step in his mental Trolldom. Either way it still makes good comedy.
I feel really bad for any QB under Fuente. I'd love to have Brewer, but Fuente's system is going to wreck this kid's body.
We went from QB's getting wrecked because of bad Oline play under Coach "quick feet", to wrecked by design.
My civic duty is done for today....
If he is coming to VT, slot him behind BB and Kadum, and let him and Bullock earn their way up the depth chart. Not sure of the wisdom in Brewer coming here to run Corny's staple play the QB power run.
Now we just need someone to expose his lack of connection to knoxnews.
And . . . maybe someone did, because his profile pic has changed and that part of his bio is gone.
Muted and blocked him before he knew who I was. #CHECKMATE
Someone else jumped in after this point and it's been comedy all day.
This guy really pisses me off because this is actual legitimate fake news that intentionally tries to muddy waters which does nothing but inject confusion and distrust in actual news reporters and agencies.
He deserves to be called out, he deserves to be silenced, and quite frankly the people who he's tried linking himself to should be able to sue his ass for trying to capitalize on their image and likeness.
I don't care.
Then don't comment and create unnecessary noise.
I agree, but this thread in general is a dumpster fire because people continue to give attention to a fake Twitter profile for whatever reason.
Identifying/discussing the troll might stop someone from using them as a source/unwittingly posting false information.
Maybe embedding the tweets should cease in favor of screenshots that don't give him more views.
In regards to Brewer transferring to Tech, I don't see the wisdom in it for either party but I've been wrong before.
Yeah, I'll go for a screenshot next time. That way it won't disappear when he deletes it when a legitimate source proves him wrong.
Screw that! That is how I feel! It's my opinion on the state of the program at this time. All of you can shove my noise where the sun don't shine. I pay my 25 cents (probably a buck now!) and I'm allowed to play the game. You act like a thread never went on a tangent.
Nothing is wrong with your opinion, but maybe actually contribute something to the discussion? I didn't find the idea of Brewer transferring here particularly exciting or likely. But saying "I don't care" is just noise. Below is from the Community Guidelines:
bless 🙏
Wait. Didn't the guy from Texas say he was going earlier today?
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.burntorangenation.com/platform/amp/2020...
He IS going to Utah. This article says Brewer will compete with him and three other guys for the starting position.
In Utah, you can have multiple wives and multiple quarterbacks
This is what I really came here for. Talk about a connection. Your next VT QB.
OU QB in the Portal
Wouldn't he have to go to Murray State first?
How many Sooners follow Shane to South Carolina?
After this video, you can see why they want to run through walls for him
Shane showed more personality in that video than Fuente has in 5 years
Bingo and an already deeper connection to the fan base
Cool. He can put out all the Twitter and IG videos he wants, if he's 5-6 in Year 5 like Fuente, nobody is going to care.
South Carolina wouldnt let him get to 5-6 in year 5 (or is it Year 1) if he is performing like that. Although this year 5-6 would have been a major upgrade at South Carolina.
It's the Beamer in him. All the best, to Coach Shane. Hopefully within a dozen years, he brings excellence back to VT. But for now, I hope he builds himself up as a excellent HC at South Cackalacky
We can't get a Mordecai when we had a Hezekiah and Zachariah, while we played against an Ezekiel?
Just a missed opportunity of biblical proportions!
Ah so Walter Friedman was wrong... again.
Everyone: Don't you ever get tired of being wrong all the time?!
"Walter": Sometimes...
