I figured after Jaren and Zach, good+ QBs would line up to be coached by him.

They were solid recruits, but not on anybody's NFL radar. And Arod didn't just get them into the NFL, he got them drafted.

My wildly 🔥 take that is just the most obvious thing ever. Kalani can take us to the next level if he does what Lavell

shimmy In play, run(s)

That and surround himself with innovative, high-level assistants like LaVell.

With an elite QB I think Arod would look good.

He may look good - still doesn't make him either innovative or high-level.

With elite QBs Arod did look good.

I do think that ARod thinks he can make "anybody" elite. That's why we haven't gotten after the big QB's.

Maybe they felt "let down" by Kedon Slovis a bit.

It helped to be one of the only teams that would let guys like that throw.

For sure. Not so easy anymore.

This was a key competitive advantage that Lavell recognized and exploited

Lucky or maybe find a late bloomer.

Retzlaff is never gonna be a great passer. It’s just not gonna happen. He can be a good leader and solid at QB to lead

I think it's more important to have elite level OLs and DLs.

Excellent OL + RB play really unlocks a great QB

Problem is he won't fork out the NIL to get a great QB.

Won’t or can’t? I don’t think he’s sitting on a pile of cash, refusing to spend.

Reasonable1

Oh, they have the money to spend to get one. Kalani thus far has chosen not to

Well probably never know what Ryder Lyons is offered by BYU but he would

Timing for the take isn't great as we just had a great season without a great QB

Lifer

Also, we haven't had very good success with the highly rated QB's that we've had in the past.

Are you familiar with the term “next level”?

Some day the planets will align and we will have elite Defense AND elite Offense

That 2012 defense was so good. The 2012 offense was criminal.

Much of CB lost their minds in 2012 when Bronco stuck with Riley too long.
