I don't know of recruiting someone specifically for this, but it seems like it would make sense to take someone with Q's strength and frame ... maybe another TE and work with them specifically for 4th and 1 situations. Q has been absolutely amazing at embracing that role. No trickery needed ... everyone knows what we are doing, but we do it anyway. Would be nice to have a situational replacement for when he is gone.

I was thinking about this recently too, if we try to find a big skill player who can take over the QB sneak after Q is gone. I mean if it's 4th and 1 or less anywhere on the field I don't even get nervous when Q comes in and we got for it. I think SDSU on the goal line is the only one who stopped him. Such a huge luxury to be like 95 percent on 3rd or 4th and short and we really need it.

He can run run

Looks like a pretty strong arm too. 2:20 into his Jr. Year highlight he chucked it roughly 43 yards down field while rolling out to his left. Some other throws looked like he was able to flick it pretty good without really stepping into it.

Reading T. Miller's article, it sounds like the new QB recruit is a really good kid.  And I think that he's going to be a dude for us in a year or two.

Unless there is some plucky little QB starting at a small high school in North Dakota that gets the coaching staff's attention. :whistling:

Either you trust the staff (coordinators, position coaches) feels they are putting the players that give the team the best chance to win or you don't.
Personally I'd prefer they ignore pedigree, recruiting rankings, where players are from and scholarship status and instead focus on who is actually performing and executing the best in practice and during games.

Hoping we saw last week what won the plucky QB the job and he can build on that.  He was more than good vs the penguins.

I had been critical of Simon after the first few weeks, but yes he looked good last week. Had some really nice throws.
