QB Kyle McCord (transfer to Syracuse)

Welp. for everybody complaining about the Bowl Game, it just got a whole lot more interesting, didn't it?
I have to believe that after Day's comments over the weekend about "expecting more movement in and out" that they must be pursuing Cam Ward hard and are confident in getting him.
After listening to Birm, Ward is supposed to be more inconsistent than McCord. My excitement level on Ward went down considerably.

I don't think it was about the fans. This had to be coming from communication made by Day. In the presser yesterday, it certainly didn't seem like he was behind McCord.

The heat is on Day now, and if Day has no confidence, he isn't messing around.
Day deserves the heat. It was always Day and Lincoln Riley that were supposed to be the 2 best QB whisperers in college football. If Day isn't fielding a potential 1st round pick at qb he isn't fulfilling his potential as head coach. IMHO.

I don't agree with you on this one. I think he does great things with QB's.

Best of luck to Kyle. We’ll always have ND. I think this is more about Day feeling pressure and not committing to Kyle that he’s the starter next year. I respect the tough conversation that most don’t want to have and we saw how Kyle responded. I don’t see this as a massive problem and way better to get this behind us now.

Kyle was a third year guy that was surrounded by NFL talent, he got two years playing by CJ Stroud and he had Ryan Day to develop him. Odds of him taking a Joe Burrow step year 2 aren’t high. I did not like how he approached THE game and his tik tok dance. He did not improve throughout the season and I never saw the fire you look for in a leader. I also don’t think he had good followership from the team. We’ll see how today goes if other players or recruits react but I think based on how he reacted to Days honest comments this was a good outcome for the program.
