Blokestradamus Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Oh he has a ton of work to do. But a mobile big qb who is a sophomore is always pretty interesting. The one UB guy I actually semi-liked (DE Brandon Crawford) doesn't seem to have got a look from the league. Liked the fit as a McDermott base end.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 3, 2017 Author Posted August 3, 2017 I've only seen him once and it was ugly. Nothing at all screamed good CFB QB, let alone NFL. Maybe I just saw a bad game. Freshman starters can look rough. He's got three years to improve.
CanadianFan Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 He's athletic and big for a QB but why did he land at UB? What's his weakness?
Agent 91 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Has a long way to go. But I love his potential Will watch him live over the next few years to see how he progresses. Best QB in UB history is still drew Willy YES. Never forget Willy

Never forget WillyI just watched the 2008 MAC championship when UB beat #12 Ball State 42-24. David Letterman was so pissed he spent his next show ragging on Buffalo. The trio of Willy, James Starks and Naaman Roosevelt were the best in school history. Edited August 3, 2017 by PromoTheRobot

Got season tickets in 1999 with my father and I still love the bulls lol not many people say that hahah But yes that team was by far the best UB football team. Joe Licata, Brandon Oliver , Alex nuetz was probably the second best trio Edited August 3, 2017 by Buffalo716

Down and Mike Newtons scoop and score. But that team was perverse. Ernest Jackson and Brett Hamlin with your trio. Defense Josh Thomas Dominic Cook Davonte Shannon Mike Newton... wasnt Justin Winters out there? I buy season tickets every year hoping to one day recreate that feeling.

Joe Licata, Brandon Oliver , Alex nuetz was probably the second best They used to have a 4-season-tickets-for-$120 deal and I bought a set even though I got to at most 2 games a year. I considered it my donation to the athletic program. It was a shame they did away with it. It's not like they fill that dump of a stadium.

Joe Licata, Brandon Oliver , Alex nuetz was probably the second best I won my first pair of seasons in 95 at the UB basketball camp. only missed 4 home games. I was actually at the first ever game played at that stadium. We lost to the Maine Blackbears. Me and my uncle have been through it all lol

Then there was the Temple Hail Mary winner. That was a great year. Edited August 3, 2017 by PromoTheRobot

Dont forget the last game at the rubber bowl which went like 6 overtimes. Edited August 3, 2017 by Agent 91
#34fan Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 UB was a two-win tire fire last season... I know Jackson got hurt last year, but they're garbage until proven otherwise..... B4 I forget. PLEASE watch UB's season opener @ Minnesota... The Goph's have a freak TE Named Nate Wozniak that is a sight to behold.... 6'10" 275... Blocks like a portable mountain range... Catches pretty as well...-SENIOR THIS YEAR!

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Unfortunately the average season for UB football is "tire fire" but you gotta believe. At least the basketball team is pretty good now. If they hired me as a recruiter, I'd make them a powerhouse. They can do so much better than they are doing. Bring back Turner Gill!
Buffalo716 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 If they hired me as a recruiter, I'd make them a powerhouse. They can do so much better than they are doing. Bring back Turner Gill! It's tough man. We aren't in Florida or Texas. There aren't many great recruits around WNY, like legit 3-4-5* guys. 4 year varsity starters who are beasts are given 0-1 or 2 * usually. So it's easier for them to go to Texas and Florida and grab their 1-2-3* guys. But it's really hard to sway a Florida kid on UB... unless we are their only offer
Mark80 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Everyone ignored Khalil Mack. Don't sleep on this kid. http://buffalonews.com/2017/08/01/faster-tyree-jackson-off-measuring-charts-ub/ So who, exactly, was ignoring Mack? He was on everyone's radar, especially going into his senior year. Then he won multiple awards and was a top 5 pick.

Khalil Mack stopped playing football in his Jr. year so he dropped off scouting radars from colleges
