What is the prevailing view on him? You hear things about him looking to grad transfer to a p5 for his last year.

He will be a hot commodity for someone..after next season what exactly do we have as far as experienced QB...NADA. Same for RB this upcoming year.

I've never really worried about RB under Solich. The little we saw of Ross was very encouraging. I guess having an all-MAC level QB for 4 years will leave you a little light on experienced QBs....

Honestly, I didn't know Riley Neal was good enough to get P5 looks. Interesting.

I am actually more concerned about replacing Lowery and Anderson.

I look forward to another year with Rourke. I'm still shocked that Haskins was in New York to watch the Heisman ceremony. He isn't the best QB in the State of Ohio. #AirCanada.

I love Rourke, but he’s not nearly the passer that Haskins is, not even close. I don’t think Rourke’s game translates to the NFL like Haskins’ does. Rourke’s a really, really good college quarterback; Haskins in the few games he’s played is a great one.

But agreed, I’m glad Rourke’s going to be back next year!

I think that any quarterback who is 6'5" and above and weighs at least 225 pounds is going to get a serious look from the NFL. In fact, he is already on some sleeper scouting lists for 2019. Whether he pans out or not is another question. After all, even the so-called experts have a pretty miserable percentage in terms of getting it right. With the possible exception of playing Alabama week in and week out, I am not sure that the college game even remotely compares to the level of strength, speed, and overall athleticism that can be found in the NFL.

I think he was talking about the best college QB in the State of Ohio, not the QB in the State of Ohio who was most likely to be successful in the NFL. Those are two entirely different questions, with perhaps different answers.

Congrats to my old WR coach....Coach Mason. If he ever gets a decent QB in Nashville they can do some work at Vandy. I think Riley Neal can help and will definitely have better pass protection than at Ball State.
