105 & The Portal

We held our 17th Annual Senior Showcase Saturday. It was the largest group we ever had.

ND Kalu asked me why there were no D1 schools because he saw 20 kids that should be on a roster.

We had 512 in our book. Then 210 signed up in the last 10 days and 50 kids walked up.

Talking with the small college coaches it’s obvious the new rules negatively impact high school kids.

The Showcase will be even more important going forward.

FYI We had Indiana Wijay volunteer with the Showcase. He worked with HOFer Micheal Bishop and Texas Legend Dick Olin with the 25 QBs that showed up.

Wijay is the backup QB no one is talking about. Let’s see how Spring goes.

Wijay is smart and articulate. He will be successful whether on the field or off.

Dick Olin worked QBs again this year. He said UH should start Carlisle.

What are his thoughts on Wijay?

So his afternoon of working with a group of QB’s allowed him enough time to decide a true freshman should start….hhhmmm

I am really excited about AC but saying he should start at UH as a freshman….i don’t see how he has an advantage over CW who has played in SEC and had moderate success.

And Olin has intimate knowledge of all of our current QB’s as well I take it?

His opinion is great, but unless he has seen all of the other UH qb’s working out an adequate amount of time then I’m not putting much stock into what he says.

I sent Dick video on Wijay that was from this past year.

When I introduced Indiana as the kid I send him film on he said “son, you can play”.

You got that from my posts? Sorry, you couldn’t be more wrong but don’t let me ruin any narrative you wish to create.

I definitely wouldn’t start a guy with no experience in college football over QBs with P4 (or even P2) starting experience.

I saw Carlisle play this past year, and he was a great HS QB, but I wouldn’t presume he can make the jump to P4 starter as an 18 year old true frosh.

We know he can play. That is why he was recruited. From his opinion can he be a back up this coming season?

Can you elaborate on what you meant and how Pollard was off?

Whatever man.

You posted the guy said he should start.

How on earth am I wrong?

I just took it from a common sense standpoint.

You get upset because I asked a question? But I must have a narrative?
What is your opinion? Do you agree with his assessment? Do you think he should start?

Dick Olin has the experience and credibility to assess a QB’s ability! I am excited that he has confidence in Austin Carlisle future. CWF and staff will make the decision, but It is great to have a lot of talented quarterbacks!
