QB Room

At this point, the status of David McComb is unknown. Hopefully it is just a minor injury but if he is out, here is our QB room.

Caleb Heavner,
Drew Bellisari, a true freshman,
Luke Henry, another true freshman, who I assume is a walk on as he has no bio.

That’s all that’s left in the QB room. Not a great situation obviously losing your #1 and #2. Heavner at least has played this year and has extensive DII experience but behind him, question marks. Let’s hope McComb is ok and not out an extended period of time. He was having a great year.

I would also point out the rather obvious, we have had no running game this season. Not good if we are down to our 3rd string QB. Time for that to be corrected.

Well, we are onto the MAC part of our schedule , so maybe the level of “competition” there will help our running game to be a little more successful.

Gus Ragland as OC/QB coach is about to really earn his money if DM is out.

6

DM is done, unfortunately.

Next man up. We’ll find out why we recruited him.

Do remember we’ll need to give him a little slack. I know for some of you hard core knuckleheads out there that will be tough (and you’re about to tell me about it!) but it might be a bit bumpy starting out. Trust his D2/3 experience and success will come out.

Losing 2 QBs to non contact season enders is really shit luck.

Unbelievably bad luck. Shocking

Dave if you recall in spring and fall camps, I was saying Heavner is better than people think.

The other area that will need to be improved is our FG unit. Get Stidham a lot of reps in practice and the holders as well. Points will be at a premium early.

Do you have a link to the article or source you’re pulling this from? I’m checking the Interweb and I can’t find anything

13

Blues, I remember. We’re about to find out. Gotta protect hi. His backup are true Freshman and a walkon. Guess that’s why you recruit a QB every year.

Thanks for the note. This is a tweet that was posted before the game yesterday. Check the leg

Glass half full view: Heavner at least has reps and success as a D2 QB. The jump from D2 to the MAC is still huge. Chuck also has a track record of finding wins with a limited backup QB.

We have very good WRs for the MAC. I’m guessing we see a version of the Aveon offense return. Short passes, run heavy, occasional big shot. Give the wideouts a chance and I think we can still be ok.

BG is a good opponent to have this week.

ALRedHawk, what is your source re: DM done?

17

I believe ALRedHawk is “very close” to the team, and thus is a reliable and credible source.

Well, that has worked before, obviously. Of course, that worked when we had a really good OL, a brick wall for a defense, and the best ST unit in the country.

Why do we always have so much problems with the QB room. I feel like we are the only school this happens to repeatedly. It is like we are cursed. Wtf.

If he is done for the season, as some on here are reporting, I want everyone to see what a tremendous job David McComb did this year, and hopefully he returns fully healthy next year:

Passing GP Rating COMP-ATT-INT PCT YDS TD LG AVG/G 16 McComb, David 4 175.01 65-103-1 63.11 % 1121 7 75 280.25

7 TD only 1 INT. 280 yards a game. 63% completion percentage.
