Even With Luck Already @ Stanford They Still Tried To Recruit Rg3


Recommended Posts

To bad they didnt get him,they wouldve won the bowl game,just imagine what RG3 COULDVE DONE WITH LUCKS supporting cast

Luck had a near perfect game, and Kendall Wright is 100000000x better than anything Luck ever had. That doesn't really make any sense. And teams always recruit more than one top QB, I think Florida State has 2 #1 overall QBs from the last 2 classes. It's really not uncommon at all.

Heck, Cam Newton was Tebow's backup at Florida.

Not shocking colleges always try to stock pile talent even if they don't really need that poistion at the time. I mean I heard the other day that as a freshmen Bob Griese was the 7th string QB at Purdue. Clearly there is no sallary cap in college football so teams can (and do) load up the talent.

No doubt RG3 has lots of talent. If we were not in position to draft Luck I wouldn't mind at all having him,especially since he said he wouldn't mind learning from Manning,if he comes back. Theres is no doubt,imo, Luck will be a solid qb at the very least and is a safe pick. RG3 could be a bust or he could turnout to be superman! It will be fun to see where he winds up and how he plays.

Kendall Wright may have been better then what Luck had at WR but in every other position Luck had superior talent around him. I would much rather have Lucks whole supporting cast then RG3s.

  • 2 weeks later...

I wonder how it's so hard for people to see that... Standford had a better team than Baylor...

Yet, Baylors supporting cast did more of the work in the bowl game. Hardly an RG3 production. Yet, Luck had a stellar bowl game and still lost because of the kicker... you can't really compare those apples. Check Mate.

Not sure what this means, but Stanfords running back and O-line had great games as well... And why do you bring up the bowl game? There's 12 others you can choose from too.

no point just found it interesting, something I didnt know and was sharing ,thats all

Idk why people give u grief on posts... Of all the ones ive seen they have all been open minded and just a presenting of information. I saw someone else do it a couple weeks ago... O well... keep doin what ur doin bro.

And about the post... I heard Harbaugh talking about that when asked about both him and Luck. I thought it was interesting, I just imagined that he would change position or be a back up to replace him in case he went into the draft last year.

If you don't know what it means then why did you write back? I brought up the bowl game because it proves your point in the previous post WRONG. Here's one choice I'll choose from; our draft day in April when we select Andrew Luck. Let the Browns or Redskins gamble on RG3.

? Stanfords defense limited Oklahoma State to 41 points... Baylor's defense limited Washington to 56... and you proved me wrong? It's okay to be wrong, just look at their teams statistical rankings. I already posted it on this thread a while back so you should go check it instead of trying to use a small sample size to prove a point, even though it didn't work. Stanford is ranked higher in defense and offense, including the running game.

    • How bout this? Draft better and u build a play off caliber team. Ain't rocket science. 
    • Look im not gonna say Ballard haven't had his own issues, but the guy has been put in an impossible position particularly every year.   2017 - He has a lame duck for a head coach when we all knew was gonna get fired and was drafting for his scheme so I'll give him a pass.   2018 - Arguably his best draft getting two All-pros and a stalwart at RT. He gets to sign his choice of a head coach and is left at the alter at the 11th hour which in hindsight was a blessing in disguise. Drafted Tyquan Lewis, Hines, and Franklin who all have or had great years here. Andrew Luck was back and playing like an MVP.   2019 - Horrible draft. No excuses. It was his worst draft as a GM, but he did find a gem in Speed. Luck retiring a week before the season starts would put any GM in a tough spot so once again I'll give him a pass.   2020 - His second best draft getting Pittman, Taylor, and Blackmon. Signed Rivers and traded for Buckner and won 11 games. Unfortunately lost to the Bills in the playoffs.   2021 - I honestly can't tell for certain what happened in terms of QB. Ive heard Rivers was supposed to re-sign, but choice to retire. I've heard he was pushed to retirement and the colts wanted to go in a different direction. I heard Reich pushed hard for Wentz saying he can fix him against the wishes of Ballard. Whatever it was, Wentz was the guy and the QB carousal was supposedly stopped at least we thought. A god-like season for Taylor was not enough to save Wentz from ultimately being traded and you can chalk that one on whomever Reich or Ballard depending on what story you want to believe. In terms of the draft, Paye and Dayo have been reliable players on the dline, Granson you can make an argument is our best TE, and Fries came into his own last year.   2022 - Just an overall disaster of a season. Went the bandage route again at QB trading for Matt Ryan and you can say the colts did him no favors in terms of oline protection and JT getting hurt, but that was a failed trade for a miserable season. 2022 draft is still under elevation, but Pierce and Woods did show potential and Raimann looks to be the LT of the future.   2023 - Ballard finally gets to draft a QB to tether him to and Richardson plays a grand total of 12 quarters. It just seems like Ballard can not catch a break when it comes to QBs, but from I've seen from Richardson, I have very high expectations.
    • Hi Colts fans,   Yeah, I know, I know.  I was just as surprised as you were.  No clue why my good friend Jim Irsay would call me up and offer me the head coaching job.  I had to remind him.  Dude, I said, you do know that I've never coached at all at the NFL level.  Not coordinator.  Not even position coach.  Nothing.  It didn't seem to matter.  It was as if all that was required was for me to be good friends with the owner, and -- bazinga! -- I could be a head coach.   It was awkward, you know.  That first coaches meeting.  There was Gus Bradley.  And there was John Fox.  Both of them had been head coaches.  Heck, both of them had coached in a Super Bowl!  Yet here I was, promoted to be their boss, having never coached before.  Ever.   But, you know, Bud Grant did it.  So, why not?  Remember, I have a way of doing things.   Ok, sorry, I couldn't help but giggle.  I have a way of doing... what, exactly?  Things?  Things like coaching?  I have a way of coaching?  And how did I develop that way?  By actually, you know, coaching?   Anyway, I'm glad you have a new head coach.  One who has actually coached before.  And his experience doing that is bearing fruit.  I'm just glad I'm already in the Ring of Honor.  Because after what happened, I doubt that I would ever be accepted in by the fans, regardless of how I was as a player.  Heck, they would have put Andrew Luck in before they would even consider me.   In the meantime, I'm back at ESPN, attempting to "un-burn" bridges.  It can happen.  I heard Bud Grant did that once....   Regards, Jeff Saturday
    • We certainly have options as both DB draftees started at FS as well as CB in college. Perhaps Thomas ‘could’ revert back to CB as well?
    • Here's to hoping Colts hit the jackpot and everyone looks back saying wow he was definitely the best wr in that draft...
