'18 NJ QB Devin Leary (NC St. Signee)

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Has he even announced that he is entering the portal?

Emezie might have been better than Kevin Austin but went UDFA too. Pretty sure NC St WRs were viewed as a team weakness. I’d take our guys including Mayer over them.

I’d rather take the QB from GT. I don’t like a pec injury like this for a QB and him not being able to throw for that long while also not knowing what he’ll be like when it heals, if it heals correctly.

ewww

Sad that when I watch his highlights all I can think of is he has better receivers at NC State than he would have at ND.

I'll take "Things that aren't true for $500 Alex"

maybe he's just sick and tired of the Dave Doeren 9-4 ceiling?

 

[NDPhilly]

Dave Doeren would drive me nuts as a NC State fan. Somehow has managed to last ten years with an average record of 7-5.

 

[IAIrish]

Need to follow the Kiffin school of thought here, it's ALL about production. Not projection.
Give me Leary or Armstrong to pair with our oline and skill talent. Either would put up big numbers. They're Jack Coan, plus.

What's worse is that he's 38-44 in conference play. To be fair, NC State is never going to be a threat to win an ACC title, but they should be more competitive.

 

[Luckylucci]

Without knowing exactly who is/will be available, Leary has to be at or near the top of the board. Regardless of injury.

Doeren wins five more games and he's tied for the most in the school's history.

9 wins and an AP Top 25 finish is about all NC State can and should expect. Apart from that, football passes the time with the Jimmy V 1983 30 for 30 documentary.

NC State has that Pitt vibe to me; you know they're not going to win the conference hardly ever (2021 complete outlier), but you also know you're always going to be in a game with them when you get them on your schedule.

Sure the NFL is littered with ND receivers and they are clamoring to sign more next year.

Emeka Emezie is one of the leading WRs in NC St history and didn’t get drafted last year

 

[yankeehater]

I have been complaining about the QB situation as much as anyone, but the WR room has not been much better over the last 5+ years. Check the other top programs versus NDs and they all have had difference makers at that position as well.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

QB should be in the MAC and the WR aren't as good as the school that won something in basketball in 1983.

Bleak, this board. Really, really bleak apart from the food recipes and Salma Hayek GIFs.

This statement is juuuuuust a little different than NC St has better receivers than ND...

But why can't ND have the same WR room as Ohio State, the same QB room as Alabama, and the same defense as Georgia? All at the same time? Dam coaches need to do their jerb

Pitt has actually won something once before in football that I didn't have to Google.

Del Alexander was an F recruiter, who had a head coach that was a negligent/ignorant recruiter. That's really all there is to that.

Fair, but they're two programs with very similar prestige in the past decade plus.

Similar prestige in that nobody cares.

 

[IrishColts17]

Outside of some miraculous Longo/Maye or Riley/Duggan pairing, Leary should absolutely be at the very top of the list of guys we pursue (assuming he enters the portal).
