[DECOMMIT] 2021 QB Charles Wright

[Cyinthenorth]

Personally I think Purdy sticks around for his Senior year, either way I think this class will have 2 QBs. Need bodies in the room.

Yep, I think you're right. Might be a revolving door moving forward, as we are starting to see with Mitchell taking off this year. That's just the nature of college athletes anymore, especially QBs. You get beat out, just leave and find somewhere else to stick. I'd be surprised if both Dekkers and Bouman are here for all 4 years, unless one of them (Dekkers) switches positions. You could redshirt one and not the other, but then whoever redshirts will be playing behind a guy for 3 years. It's rare to see kids OK with doing that anymore.

I’ll preface this by saying that I have some “wait and see” reservations about Wright—that have nothing to do with his ranking. But I’ve been thinking this for a while, and this thread seems as good of a place as any to say it.

It’s often said nowadays that Brock Purdy is about to go down as the greatest quarterback in Iowa State the history of Cyclone football.

Well, I don’t have much quibble about that. Matter of fact, I think that by many perameters, it’s already true.

On the other hand, I think that the way things are going under Matt Campbell, it might be more accurate to say that Brock is the best quarterback in the history of Cyclone football thus far.

Call him a trail blazer.

And this a new era of Cyclone football.

According to this note, it looks like he has grown 2" since he committed! Probably be 6'5" by the time he gets here.

He's no Dominic DeLira but as far a slightly undersized Texas QBs I guess he will do. Another Austin Texas QB only had two Power 5 offers 23 years ago that turned out okay.

I am completely fine if Wright is the QB of this class and we fill the other spots with top end trench guys. CMC has shown he can develop talent at QB and find diamonds at skill positions. While he has also developed line play, trench talent seems to always translate to success.

Feel better with 2 in the class. Purdy entering the draft is always possible and having two capable options in the 2019 class always increases the risk of one deciding to transfer out early.

I would be okay with two QBs too for the reason you state but not opposed to finding transfers either. The main point is I am fine with Wright being THE QB in this draft and I am not stressed if a higher rated recruit is not found.

Flipped to Texas.

Well ****

Flipped to Texas.

I was worried this might happened when Texas lost a QB to Bama this week

Wow!

Same. That sucks

 

[amishclone]

What a loser

 

[Sigmapolis]

Meh, his loss to downgrade like that.

“Texas is back!”

No. Texas is never back.

 

[IASTATE07]

Can't fault the kid. On to the next one.

 

[Bipolarcy]

Stupid move. Texas just got a commit from a 5-star 2022 QB, the top-ranked QB in the class. So He'll have one year ... maybe.

Purdy was a 3 star recruit and look at him. I bet he ends up being a multi year starter
