Who is QB1?

[sioux24/7]

Besides the new look defense, this is the main thing everyone will be watching come fall camp. You have:

- The incumbent in Simon Romfo who missed spring ball and left a lot to be desired in his play last year.  

- The FBS transfer Javance Tupou'ata-Johnson who received money from the collective but sounds like didn’t have the smoothest transition during the spring. 

- The prized recruit in Jerry Kamniski who everyone has pretty much wanted to win the job since he’s gotten to campus. 

- The overlooked in Jack Sulik. Feels like people don’t think of him as a possibility but from all accounts he has impressed coaches and he has the size. 

What do you guys think?

I think all 4 have a chance.  So my top two starting qb picks would be Jerry Kaminski and Javance T. Johnson. But regardless of whoever gets the starting QB spot will have to show they've earned the starting qb spot.

I didn't vote, but it appears my thinking is in line with the majority in that it will be either Jerry or JTJ.

[Hawkster]

I'm not even speculating.   I remember how wrong I was last year.

I don't really care who is running the offense.  I just want to see a functional offense that can leverage our running game for exposive plays and utilize the TE.  With that said, it all about the running game.  Have to get that established.

I think if it’s close in fall camp between Jerry and JTJ, JTJ has the edge with his feet and will also hopefully be able to use his size similar to Q in short yardage situations.

I also think with Schmidt, we won’t have a starting QB play extended minutes in a blowout win or blowout loss. That perplexed me last season.
 

Schmidt says Iron sharpens iron. Can’t do that with reliance on just one piece of iron.

 

Competition doesn’t end in Fall camp, it is year round throughout your career. That’s what winners do.

Hoping someone grabs the QB1 job and runs away with it - that’s the best case scenario for UND football in 2025 and beyond.

This quarterback situation is a really good problem to have - any one of them could have a breakout seasons.  It should spur some very healthy competition in practices, which will make everyone better and the cream will rise to the top.  When your backups are nipping at the heals of your starters - good things happen for the team.

[F'n Hawks]

Whoever wins the job should be put in a really good spot to succeed. The OL will be a strength of this team, with 2 very good RBs behind them.

No Bo will hurt, but I’m hoping a couple of the transfers receivers turn out. I thought Hoskins looked good at the spring wrap up. I think we will also see solid seasons out of Dennis and Deng.
