Next year's Starting Quarterback
- Thread starter Usuallyunusual-partdeux
- Start date
If I were Yarnell I would transfer to a program that promised me I would be the starter. That's what happened to him, twice now. And could very well happen again with a new OC.
I like Yarnell and think he is a lot better than CV but can we seriously hope for more than 7-5 with him as the full year starter ?
I am holding out hope Narduzzi and the new OC can get someone that wants to play in the new system.

Do Pitt fans even care anymore? We have dudes talking about Diff who is a d3 qb at best .
College Football is dead.
Just have a tournament with who raises the most money, then the players can join teams .
100 percent a dead sport. College Football sucks !!!!!!!!!!

all your life's allegiance means nothing.
over money.
what about the poor guy making the lawyer money ? the poor guy making mdonalds money ? Where is their share ?
If “one of the freshmen” is starting QB at any point next year Pitt fans are in for another long season.
Yarnell did show an ability to go through route progressions with some efficiency to find an open receiver. The other three before him certainly struggled with that important trait. But, I am not optimistic he is a difference making quarterback, or how well he will fit in the new OC system.
He is day 1 starter, but by sayin that now does it give him too much confidence...
that was a joke.. with Yarnell you get a striaght shooter
those oher fools.. good luck.
we took a guy from penn state ?
i need to start putting some workout videos on here...Like Clubber Lang.
Whats the reason? to be mean , demand more.
see if you can get the analogy

NY was asked about his running either last game or game before and said he was too slow,I don’t think he has much mobility to run an RPO offense
I'm going with Yarnell because he's more accurate than CV and has a much better deep ball than him too, which is very important in Bell's offense
I don't know if he has a better deep ball; I thought that was one of the thing CV did pretty well. I guess it depends on how deep we're talking about. CV can probably definitely throw harder and farther, but maybe Yarnell has better tough on the intermediate over the top passes.
NY takes better care of the ball and is more accurate. He also throws over the middle more. Seems like Jurkovic and CV stayed away from the middle of the field.
He definitely uses the middle more. I think the sample size is a little small to definitively declare he takes better care of the ball. He's made some dangerous throws (that one in the bowl game; that one to Karter Johnson against BC, etc.). I mean, it's possible he's just a freaking marksman, but it's also possible the law of averages catches up with those types of passes.
I'm not saying he doesn't look like the better QB or anything; I'm just saying that in terms of pure arm talent I think CV is well ahead of him. Dude can rip it... just not always to his own teammates.
I still think the starter for this coming season isn't on the roster as of today, though.
When I was going back and watching CV's starts, there are quite a number of deep balls that he just flat out misses on. The 4th down one in the WF forest game comes to mind first
This is the most accurate post in here!! they were talking about the lack of learning because all this jumping around and it is effecting the play in the nfl... great f-ing call!! fundamentals in all sports are dying out.
Transfer portal has nothing to do with that.
It’s cut down on practice time and fear of live tackling.
And it’s the type of offenses teams are moving to, which become more and more about small playbooks and space and pace at the expense of fundamentals.
Not sure where you got that idea. Bell senior himself stated after Pitt hired Kade that QB size and arm strength are down the list of things he looks for in a QB. It's all about efficiency and accuracy. Like with any spread-concept offense, which are all based on getting the best and fastest players the ball with as much space to operate as possible, as many times as possible. The big, strong armed deep ball guys are more necessary in an offense like the one we just abandoned.
I think he showed this season he's the best we have. I also think Bell will try to bring in someone who fits the scheme better. I don't know that Yarnduzzi has shown the type of efficiency, accuracy and mobility that Bell's offense calls for, but then again how could any QB show accuracy or efficiency in the 2023 offense. The thing about Yarnduzzi is he only started 6 varsity games in H.S.. He didn't have much of an offer sheet. I think he has shown some good things, but I'm not sure he's the right QB for the job. Just the best option on the roster at the moment.
The film. I watched some WCU games from last year and Bell likes to chuck the ball deep along with your textbook spread stuff
I would be shocked if they bring in a transfer QB if it doesn't happen in like a week. They usually want those dudes here for winter conditioning etc. Looks like Yarnell and Christian will battle it out.
