Spencer Rattler SC, lit up Tenn

His OC has done him ZERO favors this year. Having watched every game he's got a Cannon. He presses a lot to overcome short comings with the scheme. He could elevate his stock big time with a new OC and another year. 

 

But of all the problems this year the lack of a running game has been the biggest one.

I think what that big win did….was give Shane Beamer the excuse to keep Satterfield around lol. 
 

If losing to Tenn and then Clemson guaranteed he fired his OC (which I think it did)….would you of chosen that over getting the random Tenn win out for nowhere?

I've watched every game.  Dude has elite arm talent, but between the ears from a "football" IQ standpoint he struggles.  Story of many great athletes.  Not saying he is not smart, but makes poor decisions often with the ball.  I've watched him miss many wide open receivers this year due to feeling pressure that was not there.  His first instinct is to run outside the pocket.  He is a actually a better passer on the run and can make some crazy throws.  The frustration until the TN game is that he does not stand in the pocket and go through his progressions like you want a top-flight quarterback to do.  I said all year they might as well just roll him out every play.  The o-line has not been the best and his OC is not very good at making adjustments in game, but a little like Darnold if you can rough him up early he sees ghost

I'd keep him as a QB coach or an OL coach if he just has to be here, because he knows football and recruits well. He just isn't a good play caller.

Literally no one is saying they want him in this thread, other than the OP, lol

Did not say I wanted him.  Saw him play for first time and he was lights out.  Was just asking what people thought about him. Kinda the purpose of a forum.

That may be the purpose of a normal forum. This one? Not even close.

 

The Cocks have an iffy Oline, and a semi-bad OC. Rattler is a big reason they are in the position they are in now. But most Huddlers only know him from OU, so they are biased. The kid has had a good year and has been a great teammate. Or at least that is what I have heard and read.

 

As a Gamecock fan, I hope he stays one more year. Help build the program and get Beamer some added umph in recruiting.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
