Weirdly cheap remarks.
Wish Drew the best.

It seems to be an issue that plagues our QB transfers...except Golson. He oddly enough didn't receive a lot of negative remarks after leaving, despite the fact he was planning on leaving without saying anything to the coaches first.
For whatever reason when other position players transfer it's usually well wishes and not a lot of complaints, but whether they were liked or hated, or former starter or perennial backup, the QBs receive some negativity it seems.

To be fair most of our outbound transfers haven’t made enough of an impression for people to make cheap remarks about them.

But I definitely recall some people here dragging Logan Diggs after he decided to transfer.

Yeah, Logan is an exception. Most players have pretty classy exits like that and nobody says anything, but I'll never understand why some transfers will rub people the wrong way. A good portion of them leave as graduates and are making a move to try and improve their football stock, right or wrong.

I think the timing of Drew’s departure is the cause of some of the negativity. Not my business to judge. I did laugh a bit at the “twitchy” thing though.

The dad bod comment made me think of this also:



annually used in Detroit to describe Miguel Cabrera in spring ball

fat baseball players are my favorite thing in sports

EDIT: aaaaand now I just googled miguel cabrera's height and weight and saw they are the same as what I was this morning, and I had felt so good about my recent diet! I guess I'll just tell myself his listed weight is a lie

This reminds me of middle school before games; attempting to make weight to carry the football.

lmaoooo it was even worse for me. In 8th grade I was so big they wouldn't even let me play on defense unless I lost like 2 lbs and my mom not knowing any better forced me to "hydrate" all day because i refused to eat anything. And thus began my career as an offensive lineman...

Trenton Bourguet is a former 5’10” walk-on who was ASU’s back up last year. And Pyne couldn’t beat him out.

That’s who Freeman went 9-4 in year 1 with.

Yeah I just don’t get the taunting of him at all.

I’ve got nothing against Drew and I hope it works out for him. He did a great job in a really difficult situation last year considering his physical and talent limitations.

He wanted to be at Notre Dame. He got a chance to do something his gifts wouldn’t normally allow him and he did much better than you’d expect from the backup QB stepping into a dumpster fire. That’s a great story.

Logically, he should have stayed to get his degree but he wanted to play and took a chance. I totally get why he felt like he’d earned it. But he wasn’t going to be the starter here because he wasn’t the starter last year and they swapped out the QB he couldn’t beat for a better QB this cycle.
