John hit me up from Glendale Arizona he said could you rank the top quarterbacks this season yeah I could I think Carson Beck's the best quarterback in the country to come into this season 72.4% completion guy last year 281 passing yards per game 24 to6 touchdown to interception does all that carry over sometimes it doesn't I think it will he was in a top five scoring offense last year don't have any reason to believe that would drop off he is an nil gift Carson Beck is not playing college football this year if it were 2014 instead of 2024 nil has made it possible for a lot of these late first early second round type talents to come back instead of testing the waters so it's not all the Devil he's got an elite offensive line good pass catchers here tight end even without Brock Bowers one of the best tight end rooms in the country again I just think sometimes we need to pause and understand we just said we watched a truly a generational tight end Talent overused word but not in Brock Bower's case we watch him go to the NFL and the room he vacated is still one of the top tight end rooms in the country wow Dylan Gabriel I struggled with where to place him here he couldn't ask for more man from a surroundings standpoint will Stein is one of the hottest Rising offens coordinators in the country he will probably have the best onew receiver combo to deal with he's got an all conference tight end to throw the ball to he was top 10 last year at Oklahoma in completion percentage pass yards per game pass touchdowns the NFL guys I I talked to a number of NFL scouting types to get their read on college players Dylan Gabriel does not project to some Superstar at the NFL level he is a star at the college football level uh probably like lower tier arm strength size Etc it's it's not like he's Cam Newton 2.0 or anything like that but at the college level the guy can win a National Championship I look so forward to seeing him and there were only a couple of these tests coming per year but like against Ohio State secondary of of having to threat it and having to zip it in a window that's a lot tighter um all due respect than the ones he had to fit it in in the Big 12 look forward to that but he's up there cam Ward at Miami's up there now the difference with Cam Ward is last year he's fourth in pass yards per game he's number one I think Jesse amongst quarterbacks who returned 25 to7 touchdown to int ratio last year that was up at Washington State so he comes down to Miami maybe he'll hit the ground running my feel around Miami and like cam the offense is I actually expect a little bit of clunkiness in the early part of the Season just sort of working Kinks here and there out I think eventually maybe week one maybe week five he is right up here with the best quarterbacks in the country and their offense is up there with one of the best offenses in the country it'll be very balanced they've got really good talent and versatility in their running back room but also I mean again Elijah aroyo tied in waited for him last year got hurt in the preseason uh he is not hurt now and so I looked for him to be one of the best weapons along with you know Restrepo the brown kid they got from Houston a lot of good players there Jackson Dart where would you put Jackson Dart because I came to this part Jackson Dart Quinn ERS you know which one goes goes where Jack Dart is the by far the best dual threat on this list 23 to5 touchdown to int last year through the air but he also ran for eight touchdowns and he's got just weapon after weapon out wide he is the unquestioned leader I think of that offense they've got I think in ulysis Bentley an elite running back Talent so it's not on his shoulders he's a guy who could take it on his shoulders but the entire weight of the load is not on his shoulders Quinn yers I just mentioned him at Texas this is the guy who has the biggest year on his hands because I've seen it from some of these other guys I've seen it I have not seen Quinn yur's top end game I don't think I have if I have then we've overrated him a little bit he was top 12 last year in completion percentage and passing yards per game um top 12 okay that's great but we're we're trying to talk top five or top six here is he that is he that he's got the same system for a third year in a row same program same coordinator so the consistency is around him it's a familiar environment they did as good a job as they possibly could losing those pass catchers to go backfill um he's got it to do he's workable scheduled he's got it to do still some work to be done to be a top five in the country though and then there's just the other list of guys like milro could be in here shador I mean shador you know I looked at this and if I put shador Sanders on any of these teams shador Sanders is a lock to be a top five quarterback so it wasn't strictly like a power rating system of quarterbacks I did take that into account but I also took your surroundings into account and who knows man maybe shid will be that regardless but Brady cook at Missouri Drew Aller at Penn State cam Rising back for his 19th season at Utah faf out at Arizona wouldn't be surprised at all to see him pop up there Garett NM I know I said that maybe turnovers have been a bit of an issue in Fall Camp that's fall Camp man you work that out maybe he just comes out and throws for four touchdowns against USC and Garrett nmes immediately in the conversation all that could happen [Music]
