I remember many on this board saying that even though Book beat him out at ND, he would still definitely go higher in the draft than Book. Turns out he just stinks out loud.

It's a valuable lesson and one I'm not going to forget. The coaches know more than we do. These guys don't play for a reason. Once you get past all the recruiting rankings and star bullcrap, it boils down to what you do day in and day out within a program. Or what you don't do I suppose.

Rivals had Jurkovec as a four star recruit and 87th overall in America. Sam Hartman was a three star that same year and was rated the 31st pro style QB in that class. Funny how it all works out.

What things were he and his family doing/saying about ND and BK?

I don’t want to get into the specific details or names, but it had a racial component to it & accusations that certain coaches were telling Phil who he should be hanging out with and what type of person he needed to stay away from.
For example, (hypothetically), spend more time studying your playbook & not hanging out with kids smoking weed.
But basically Phil & his parents spun coaches trying to actually coach Phil & make him a better QB into they were picking on him and telling him how to live.
Chip Long & Rees (and BK) were HARD on Phil. Everyone knows that. But it wasn’t because they didn’t like him or were playing favorites with Book (like Phil & his family says), it’s because he stunk and they were trying to get more out of him.
But as we have seen the past 3 years, Phil can’t take criticism or pressure. He just runs away & blames others.

Are you serious? I typically wish transfers well because most have been classy with their exit and it's usually for the best, but this chud has done nothing but blame others and has failed to take responsibility for his own shortcomings. He's not going to go far in life with that attitude. He's an asshole.

From what I hear, Jurkovec being told to spend more time in the film room was all the excuse he needed to pretend the coaching staff had gone too far in being "tough" on him.

What coaches said: "Get in the film room more often, Phil. If you want to develop, it takes more time than just showing up at practice."
What Phil heard: "We don't feel like helping you develop, you're on your own. Watch film or something."

10 yd out Liafau gunning for him and he runs straight to the bench.
BMo pick 6.

Philaure tells daddy Narduzzi he's becoming the mascot because cheerleaders get hurt a lot.

Too weird to be true, but if we weren't talking about the Jurk, I could see a guy of his size and athleticism playing TE or a big WR.
