“I’ll say this, man. Four weeks ago, we talked about it on GameDay, and I was like, ‘Dude, this dude is the best in college football.’ … He does more things better than everybody,” Pollack said. “He’s 6’5, he’s 220, he throws into tight windows, he throws under pressure, he scrambles to get time, he spreads it around to multiple receivers.

“That’s an amazing point, and he’s what I would do, Dan, if he did that and I was at all these big-time schools. ‘Hey, which one of my boosters are billionaires? Bro, I need $10 million. I’m going to get you the best quarterback in college football. Can you make that happen?’ I think it would be an absolute no-brainer.”

Article that is pure speculation.

During an ACC championship game news conference previewing the Saturday matchup against Clemson, Brown was asked whether he was worried about players like Maye being offered deals to play elsewhere next season.

"One of the real issues we've got in college football is people that are tampering with guys on your team and paying them money to leave," Brown said. "It's an issue that needs to get stopped.

"I sat down and did lunch with one of our starters the other day, and I said, 'Are you getting calls?' He said, 'Coach, I've got 15 places I can go.' He said, 'I'm not going anywhere.' I said, 'Are they offering you money?' He said, 'Yes, 100 percent.'"

This article doesn't name the starter in question and only says Brown expects Maye to stay.

Cade has been the best QB since spring.  That’s not saying a lot because DJ sucks but he wasn’t #2 on the depth chart because DJ was the better option.  DJ topped the depth chart because Dabo thought the nation was too hard on a good kid and he wanted to prove the world wrong and reward a good kid for doing all the right things.  But he wasn’t starting all year because Dabo didn’t have faith Cade was be better. 

he is a true freshmen.  He isn’t going to be perfect.  I don’t expect the 2nd half to look like the first…..but calling him a turnover machine is bogus.   Probably a poor time to argue it after the kid scored on every drive he had. 

 

Nice "pass".

I mean, the true freshman has scored on every drive but that one.  I got no issue with Cade.  He isn’t going to light the word on fire every drive lol.  I don’t even care if we win as long as the DJ era ended tonight.  Nothing better than that. 

and your QB should of been picked off right before that throwing into double coverage.  I don’t think he is a true freshman.

      I liked him when he was at Michigan because I'm a Wolverine homer. After that...

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
