I'm hyped. But, the hype trains associated with this football program the last couple of years have not fared well. I'll be cautious about jumping aboard another too soon.
It's starting to sound like it's fake. He was a big time recruit I'd imagine he wouldn't fly under the radar
That's arguable. What is unarguable is that Stinesprings average season is better than Loefflers. In hindsight, we should have kept Stiney as OC and returned him to OL coach, hired Loeffler as QB coach, moved Shane to TE coach and brought in a key recruiter to handle RBs. That would have taken advantage of each of those guys strengths.
Yoda may have been the editor on that one
Indeed. I will predict that he will want to mold a QB for a few years as well, which is purely a guess on my part. My guess is that he will put his eggs in the Lawson basket but it'll probably come down to Lawson and Jackson in camp, with Motley being back up. If Park is in the mix, we may have an embarrassment of options there.
would love to hear Fuente start this relationship off right with a "that coaching carousel'l get after ya" in his opening presser
That is a big assumption with that many guys competing, but I don't know anything about Park honestly and I didn't realize you were making the assumption that he would win the starting job. I thought you were saying Lawson would leave now. Honestly though if every QB thought like that nobody would have a backup QB. I also read that in Fuente's first year at Memphis he started one guy and redshirted Lynch, but started Lynch the next year over the other guy. Just because one guy starts one year doesn't mean he is automatic to start the next.
I'm pretty sure it is a fake FB account anyway
Makes sense for them. He wasn't coming with Fuente, and they'll keep some consistency.
I'm so confused by Park's facebook page. Definitely seems like he visited on 10/28 and the comments suggest he found his new home. In his about section, it says he studied at VT, yet is the QB for UGA. So lost...
I could understand him wanting to leave at that point. It's going to be hard to speculate who will be at the QB1 spot right now. Fuente will find his guy and develop him to where he wants him to be to best succeed in his offense.
I vote we go with the better QB as determined by our QB guru HC.
Yea I'm not saying he would transfer immediately, but if he loses the starting role to anyone other than Motley why would he stay
I think we are going to be in a good situation QB wise next year with all the guys that will be here. I'll trust Coach Fuente to make the call on who the better choice is. His track record speaks for itself.
Not sure he can win the starting job. Remember he left UGA because he wasn't going to get the start over Lambert.
I remember when Park was high on VT and we had the QB battle between him, Cornwell, and we ended up with Ford.
Ironic that I haven't seen any of those guys starting anywhere.
Lawson has a legitimate opportunity to win the starting job for next year. He would be throwing away a pretty big opportunity to leave before he even has the opportunity to compete for the job.
I think we need to go with Lawson, the other kid had a chance and didn't pick VT, too late now he can ride the bench for us, Lawson committed and to me seems like the better choice.
If Park comes and wins the starting job why would he stay? He would be in the exact situation as Miami, which is the reason he came here in the first place
Awesome! We r so there! Thnx to all!
Yeah Fuente had to go after a bunch of JUCO players at Memphis especially his first year, there's an interview somewhere in one of these threads where he said his first year they only had 3 cornerbacks on roster.
Yes.

GuitarMan got me by 12 seconds...
Fake account? Was suggested farther up in the thread and I would believe that.
