#QUINCY PATTERSON MAX PREPS TV#
If they fill seats, the only available top 10 market in the FBS becomes an appealing carrot that the Temple administration can dangle to a potential P5 suitor.Ī big market with an empty stadium does not have much appeal but a big market with proven TV ratings (which Temple already has) makes Temple a viable P5 commodity.Ī strong NCAA oversight of this new Wild Wild West makes both possible for Temple and recent evidence seems to suggest that rumors of the NCAA’s enforcement demise may be premature.įriday: The Ultimate X and O’s vs. If the Owls win, they go a long way toward filling seats. The Owls have something no other G5 team can offer the P5: A Top 10 TV market. The next step for the G5 in general and Temple, in particular, is to win. The Owls would have probably gotten a year bowl ban.)īaby steps, but steps forward and not backward like we’ve seen since the portal and NIL came into play. (In 1986, Temple policed itself by voluntarily forfeiting all 11 games due to one of its players signing with an agent but there was no evidence the NCAA would have handed down such a harsh penalty. Had the NCAA not had the power to enforce its rules, a lot of universities would never hold similar investigations and policed themselves. Head coach Pat Fitzgerald was suspended due to an independent investigation.
#QUINCY PATTERSON MAX PREPS CRACK#
There was some logic to that opinion but a couple of things happened in the last week to counter that argument.Īs Blazeman pointed out in an earlier comment, the NCAA now has the power to crack down on some of the NIL (NLI?) nonsense and that should help–above all–the G5 teams who have unfairly been placed in a position where they cannot compete with the P5.ĭoubtful it will make that much of a difference but unregulated cheating is never a good thing.Īnother instance of the NCAA influence is the recent Northwestern hazing scandal. “Why don’t we cheat? The NCAA won’t enforce its rules anyway.” Above, he throws a touchdown against Rutgers nine years later. Warner (third from left) at his dad’s Hall of Fame induction. Keeping them healthy and productive is the best indicator of future success for their teams.Īt least in Warner’s case, AAC Media Day confirmed he was a hair above the rest of the Owls.Į.J. Like Harper is to the Phils, Warner is to the Owls. I no more want Warner out there keeping the ball on read-options than I want new Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper diving into camera wells next to dugouts to make great catches on foul balls. The practice is that a good running game will probably benefit him more. The idea is that the mere threat of Warner being able to run–something he did not do last year–will make him a more effective downfield passer. That site also noted that Warner improved his speed by about two miles an hour, although we’re not sure what that translates to in the all-important metric of 40-yard dash speed. Supposedly, according to, Warner improved his weightlifting numbers and has grown from 190 to 200 pounds to that will help him better absorb hits. Yet his yardage (3,028) set a Temple freshman record and was better than any of the first three seasons of Walker. Walker played in nine games his true freshman year and Warner played in 11, throwing for 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Just from his on- and off-field coaching, I think he will. The Bison open the 2021 season against Albany in the FargoDome Saturday, September 4th at 2:30 pm.Let’s Go Owls! Love that kid #TempleTuff - Kurt Warner July 24, 2023 The Bison are also hoping Patterson provides more robust production through the air, as NDSU QBs averaged just over 120 yards per game and only 9 passing touchdowns in 10 games last season.
Patterson follows in a long line of athletic dual-threat quarterbacks for NDSU, where fundamental elements of past offenses have featured designed QB runs, bootlegs and rollouts, and extending plays outside when the pocket collapses. He joined the program this past spring and has been practicing with the team since, but could not participate in the spring 2021 season action due to transfer rules.
The Chicago native and former four-star recruit Patterson appeared in seven games during the 2019 season for the Hokies, averaging nearly five yards per rush and totaling four touchdowns. The transfer from Virginia Tech held off sophomore Cam Miller, who appeared in eight games and started the two spring season playoff games for the Bison, and freshman Cole Payton. NDSU football’s highly publicized quarterback battle has finally reached its conclusion, with head coach Matt Entz tabbing junior Quincy Patterson as the starter in a long-awaited decision.
