Sellers would be nuts to leave school.

He needs a LOT of seasoning. Tons of potential but he need at least a year or two more.

He needs to leave Shula and play for a team than can develop him. Lincoln Riley at the other USC could do wonders for him. I doubt he leaves though as he is from SC.

He is way closer to Anthony Richardson than Cam Newton on that scale of QB.   Not saying he can’t get close to the Cam side but a desperate NFL team will ruin him year 1.  Hope he stays another year.  He doesn’t need to run away from college like others for a check anymore

Nah. Especially with the NIL. Get the college money and develop properly.

Yep. It's not like you're leaving a ton of money on the table. Dude could hit the portal and bag millions just like Beck did. Honestly, if you're not a likely first round pick at QB you're probably better off hitting the portal and fielding bids. Guys like Quinn Ewers need to be cashing NIL checks until they run out of eligibility. They may be borderline NFL talents but that's worth millions as a college QB. I mean, a borderline NFL talent is still a pretty damn good college QB.

Yeah, as someone said earlier, go find a Lincoln Riley or another great QB coach to help you develop.

I've said numerous times that if I had a son who was an elite QB recruit who's dream it was to play at UNC I'd STILL make him at least hear Lincoln Riley out. I mean, when it comes to putting QBs in the NFL I don't think any other active coach is even in the conversation.

I became a true believer after seeing what he did with Jalen Hurts. Hurts looked like a guy who needed a position change at Bama and Riley turned him into a Heisman candidate and 2nd round pick. He would've honestly went in the 1st if his Bama tape didn't leave evaluators scratching their heads as to which tape was telling the truth. It was just impossible to reconcile his Bama play and his OU play.

And even some of these "elite" programs have a suspect history of QB development.

A lot of them do. I mean, they're stacking elite recruits like cordwood. If a guy isn't ready to go one of the other ones probably is. They're not gonna waste the time trying to develop the guy who needs a lot of work. Hence why Bama yanked Hurts for Tua.

Clemson literally has a natty because Hurts couldn’t complete a simple forward pass once Derrick Henry got knocked out.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
