Is Dylan Rizk our future QB?

[90Knight]

Pretty good stats over a full season….unfortunately, I don’t see Gus giving him the job because he’s not his running type QB.

Based on Gabriel’s current 351 attempts and multiplying Dylan’s 91 attempts x 4= 364 attempts.

Gus will grease the palms of the offensive line to leave Rizk open to injury

Unless there is better QB that is recruited, I see the 3 QBs who have had playing time on our roster competing next season for the job. Personally, I have no problem with HC using 2 QBs next season; it worked with the Gators in the past when they won the Championship with Tebow running in short yardage and goal line situations while other QB with his passing skills was used most of the offensive series. You do that until you get an exceptional QB who does both well. You don't keep one QB in one time because they might have their feelings hurt, the truth hurts suck it up.

Bulk of his stats came from Arizona game. He hasn't been quite as good since, and WVU is one of the worst defenses in the conference. Utah defense will be the toughest he will play this season.

UCF has one of the best rushing attacks in the nation along with one of the best running backs. Which should make the QB position at UCF one of the easiest positions in the country.

I will agree with you with one caveat. Arizona was probably the only game also where it seemed Gus kept his hands off then play calling and didn't seem to be secretly sabatouging the game.

A perfect example of this occurred in our last possession before the half in the West Virginia game. RJ Harvey and Rizk have the team moving (they had just scored on the previous drive) and have momentum and then inexplicably after getting a first down Jacurri Brown is running on a keeper up the middle for a loss of 2. Even the announcers called it a boneheaded play that the whole stadium knew was coming. Camera pans to the sidelines and who's holding the play, calling sheet....Gus.

Our first 3 QBs weren’t playing stellar defenses every weekend and still couldn’t pass.

We’ve had the same running game all season yet none of our QBs have made “UCF one of the easiest positions in the country “. None of the first 3 made playing QB look easy.

I think the kid has played well, made big 3 rd down conversions, protected the ball and made good decisions passing and running. We actually have a passing game with Dylan….poo poo it all you want, but the kid deserves credit for us having some semblance of a passing game. The early results are promising and he’s clearly our best QB right now.

I don’t think anyone has suggested it’s a problem bringing in Jacurri on short yardage situations…I do have a problem with a QB starting who can’t pass and can only run…..as has been the case until Rizk.

If Jacurri doesn’t/can’t pass when he does get in..defenses will just key on him and the running game by stacking the box. Coaches aren’t concerned with hurting feelings. I think Gus has found that Finding exceptional QBs who can pass and run is not easy. Maybe Gus should focus on recruiting passers? QBs have to be able to pass. He needs to get over Cam Newton…those quys are rare….even in the NFL.
