Britt in the portal

We had a lot of QB1 injuries the last 2 years. Neither Brown nor Britt grabbed the job and made it a tough decision when the starter came back. If either had, there would be no portal or Tuttle talk. There are 4 levels of football below FCS and some guys who look good in highschool struggle at this level. Let's just wish him well and look forward with those who stay and those who join the team.

If Britt had gotten the prep time and been named QB2 from the get-go, I bet his development and played throughout the year would have gotten much better rather than just storing them in at the tail end of a couple of cupcakes and then the two biggest games of the year at the end of the season… Just saying

Maybe he should have worked harder, listened to his coaches better, not argued with his OC (rumor), complained less to teammates.

I was told by a pretty relaible source that the staff was excited about him last Fall when he redshirted but struggled big time last Spring. I hope he ends up somewhere with a chance to play. I wouldn't be surprised to see him play a year of JUCO. Not sure how that would work credit wise.

Not condoning arguing with coaches but to be honest, the OC is a hardheaded a-hole, just like you, who apparently can't evaluate or develop QB talent if he thought Brown was better than Britt for the majority of the season… And as for your other post, my reading comprehension is just fine. Your lawyer speak on the other hand, could use some work… I'm surprised you don't get dizzy from talking people around in circles

He was afraid to compete at UM.

Again: there is no truth to this. They don’t know how to develop quarterbacks and he could tell. If you question whether this staff can develop QBs, just look at their track record with high school quarterbacks. It’s well documented
Thank you, Kyle, for your blunt honesty.

Maybe Kyle should check his facts, check with coaches, and even check check with last spring's qb room. Kyle is wrong on Britt. I know who this completely reliable and knowledgeable source is. You can go with your narrative or the facts.

Bergquist started as a frosh.
lets look at this 2004 craig ochs and jeff disney ahead of bergquist. 2005 brought in jason washington. 2006 bobby brought in shotgun arm josh swogger. 2007 bergquist gets to play.
Bobby ball = old qb. talent is not relevant. somewhere in bobby's brain young QB's not playing unless desperation. Bobby has a plan and he dosent deviate. I've been suffering thru 17 years of bobby. He needs to go.
Do you ever check the facts before you post your stuff? Bergquist redshirted in 2004, Ochs last year and was the primary UM QB in 2005, 2007 and 2008. He played behind Swogger in 2006, but still had substantial PT in 9 games. As a RS frosh in 2005, he very quickly beat out the likes of Washington and Disney.

Correct, but I think Disney was gone in 2005. Think Bergquist started 8 games.

👀 https://twitter.com/NateDolan6/status/1605080843294167040 does that mean Bergen is in the portal?
Why would that mean Bergen is in the portal?
He tagged Bergen and Britt saying they can take there names out of the portal since there was a offensive coaching change

He's replying to Bergen's retweet, which is why Bergen is tagged. Junior may very well be in the portal, but I'm not sure he tagged him on purpose here. There's another user that did the same thing in the thread.

Kyle is 100% correct and why this coaching change was made. I'm excited for the new OC, he deserves it.

Junior retweeted Britt's tweet announcing he was in the portal, which is what Nate responded to and why Junior was tagged in the tweet

Yes, that’s what I said. :lol:

I don’t think there was any hidden meaning here, as far as I can tell.
 
The only reason Bergen might not leave now is because of the OC change. If there wasn't a change he was gone. Same with another very talented young offensive player

So who’s the new OC? Someone who’s already on the staff?
