While the Shapen decision hasn't turned out like we thought it should at this time, the secondary was an even bigger weakness of the team.

We have 1 shell shocked scholarship QB on our roster. There is no more important need than quality and depth at the QB position.

QB needs depth too, however the secondary was worse during the season.

Good news. I hope the photo above is not necessarily an indication what we should expect from him at Baylor.

Guy who had *checks notes* zero tackles last year. Nice!!

EDIT: is he literally getting burned in the picture they used to announce his transfer? Ooooofff you really couldn't have found any other picture?

Hate to sound negative but I was really hoping we would try to go after somebody with more experience. Oh well… hopefully the staff knows what they are doing. He's got the size at 6-1 for sure.

A little skeptical if he's been in college 3 years and the headlines are focusing on his number of stars and offer list from high school

LOL! I would hope our staff is making decisions based upon current need rather than those we had during the past season.

Would not the secondary be a current need based on last season and those leaving?

Of course it is. I say again "1 Scholarship QB" on the roster.

He could be covering a punt. Either way, it's stupid to judge a player on one still photo -- or one anything for that matter.

Players like Dunson constitute roughly half the players in the portal.

If it's not a FCS/G5 star looking for a bigger platform or a grad transfer looking for a big NIL payday, chances are it's going to be an unproven P5 player looking for better opportunity at more playing time.

Some of those guys will work out, some won't. But those are the types of players we'll get getting a lot of because we're not getting the big-money guys.
