+1 he looks so much better than Rees and Hendrix right now

Hendrix looked ok though.

But you can just tell that golston has the special ability about him. But Hendrix has looked good too

Atkinson is running pretty well

Solid drive from Hendrix, but man Golson is smooth.

Golson displaying some of his freak moves.

Golston looks way better than any of the qb's. He's going to be a hell of a player

GAIII with a highlight reel run. Bounced back well from fumble.

Golson looks sharp.

Great throw and catch there.

I think I'm getting my Atkinson's mixed up. LOL

No you are right. George is rb, josh is cb.

I'd prefer Kiel to hang out with Golson more, less with Tommy.

4* OL John Montelus out of MA committed today. Should close out lineman recruiting.

Golson. Not Golston.

He looked the best, by far.

The offense had six turnovers.....not good.

ND's OL, DL, and LB corps are fucking nice.

The only downside IMO to starting Golson is that you're going to have to live with "Freshman mistakes" again due to lack of game experience. That being said, it's not like Hendrix is a seasoned vet, Rees still makes mistakes like a first-timer and Kiel is very green. There are just certain plays that Golson can make with his mobility that make him worth starting as that will make up for some of the lack of experience. Hendrix is mobile too and didn't do bad yesterday or last season for the most part. But I just think Golson has "it."

I expect to see all 4 QB's getting some PT at various times throughout the regular season. Not sure how much of a rotation there will be though as Golson and Hendrix bring similar abilities to the table and I expect them to be 1st and 2nd string. I don't want to see Rees in there at any point to be honest and can only see Gunner playing in mop-up duty. Really liked Golson's game and would be willing to take some lumps now with him as starter (it would be that way with any of them this year anyways) and see where he could lead this team in the following few seasons with that experience under his belt.

Great post. I agree on everything. He will make mistakes but he will also make that big play that none of the other qb's can.

I'm actually really surprised about his verbal to Nebraska. From everything I heard, he was really pumped about Michigan State. But Bo has the Mooney connection, and said that Courtney would be starting as a freshman...so I'm sure that helped sway his decision.

Still holding out hope that ND can snag him away before signing day, though.

It's official. Aaron Lynch is a USF Bull.

FIFY

Justin Tuck is a horrible recruiter

TE Mike Heuerman committed to Notre Dame today.

Had a feeling after that long visit to nd that he was going to choose them. I'm curious if osu wants McNeil more or if they only want one TE.

Yeah I wasn't sure how the Lynch situation was going to impact him considering they are good friends, but him taking that visit and hanging out with players other than Lynch was a pretty good sign.
