Well. They got one of the best receivers and running backs in the portal. Their presumed starting QB scores 14 points in the second half against Wisconsin. Granted, there is very little sample size with Pribula. But there is certainly no evidence Mizzou declines to an Iowa level offense. Is this how you react between starting QBs all the time? The overreaction is hilarious.
Pribula is a running QB that drink won't trust to throw fiendish so yes we're trending toward Iowa offense.

I’m not quite sure you are aware of Drew Allar’s standing in the scouting community.

There were people who had Allar ranked as a first round QB before he announced his return. That was before “scouting season” this winter/spring so no guarantees but he is no pushover. Here is a yahoo article from this week that has him as the #2 QB behind Manning for 2026 and mentions he may have been a first rounder this year.

https://sports.yahoo.com/article/2026-n ... 37608.html
Did you watch him play last year against the better teams in the B1G last season and postseason? Or see his stats at least? He had fewer than 200 yards passing 7 times and more than 250 twice, against nonexistent Ds vs. USC and Kent. And he threw 3 INTs against USC. Did you see how badly he stunk against ND in the CFP? 12-23 for 135 yards, 0 TDs and 1 game-losing INT. And against Ohio State? 12-20 for 146 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT. Against Illinois? 15-21 for 135 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs. Against Oregon? 20-39, 226 yards, 3 TDs, 2 INTs.

He's at best a game manager who comes up small against better competition and in the biggest games. Check out a Penn State fan forum, and see what many think of Allar. His game-losing INT vs. ND in the CFP did not surprise them.

Now I'm hoping Pribula is a lot better than Allar. We shall see.
Yes, I did. As did the people who scout players for the NFL draft and those who write articles like the one I shared. I’m simply sharing a small window into the industry view of Allar to demonstrate that he does not in fact suck. You are free to side with the fan forums of the world as a basis of forming opinions, but there are more measured and unbiased views out there.
I'm free to side with the data on him. I laid that out for you and I guess you just ignored it. Again, he's a game manager at best who comes up small against the better competition. I showed you the data. So scouts like him. I don't know why. Perhaps on measurables but not on performance.

Whatever, he is not our problem. And I hope the guy we got is a lot better.
That data does not say he sucks, even the cherry picked data you laid out. I do understand message boards thrive on hyperbole though so it’s no surprise to see someone parrot that language on topics with which they are unfamiliar.
Fair enough, but I have found a lot of Penn State fans to be quite knowledgeable. And I obviously exaggerated when I said he sucks. He's actually decent against the lesser competition. And I know the NFL is big on measurables, and he's 6'5, 235 with a big arm. Kind of like why Gabbert got drafted in the 1st round. But that pick he threw against ND was inexcusable with 33 seconds left in a tie game. He also did not complete 1 pass to a WR in that game. I think his elite TE was a security blanket for him in a lot of games. Not that I blame him for throwing to him a lot because he caught everything in the neighborhood.

I guess we'll see how he does his senior year and whether he can be better against the better teams. And it will be interesting to see what he does in the NFL. My guess is that he'll end up as a decent backup, like Gabbert did.

On to Pribula. I'm really looking forward to seeing what he can do. And I shouldn't have dissed him as a Penn State reject. That's unfair. The kid will get his shot.

I can't wait for football now that hoops is over. Still have the Cardinals and Blues to pass the time until then.

Cheers!
I’m excited about Pribula. Allar was a big prospect coming out of high school. Lit it up in the elite 11 comp. I do think he choked a little in big games but all he had to throw to was his TE. He didn’t have a wr core like Mizzou has. I think the main reason pribula didn’t get his opportunity was because allar has been the starter since he stepped on campus. He’s started since his freshman year and hasn’t done much to lose his job.

When did he say he doesn’t trust pribula, the $1.5M QB, to pass the football?

You don't read very well, I said he won't trust him. Pribula will be an average passer like Cook and if the OLine doesn't come together quickly then it'll be run, run, run, pass, run, run, run, pass.

Nope, it’s not my reading that’s a problem. You said drink won’t trust him. Therefore, in order to have such a take on the brand new guy who hasn’t thrown a pass, he must have said it at some point. Otherwise, you literally have no idea of Drinks opinion of pribulas passing ability. You’re just stating nonsense, as you normally do. Nothing new. Same ol’ same ol’ from onemizzou

Except in reality everyone but the Penn St. coaches are pretty ignorant about what kind of talent Pribula has at this point. And no one has any idea how it translates to 4 quarters worth of football on a fall Saturday with Missouri. I did enjoy the irony of the guy whose every comment here revolves around an assumption they made up mention ignorance though, so thanks for that.

That's been my point from the day he committed. He's a 2nd string QB that we hope will progress into a real QB1. I don't have a lot of faith that he'll become a great passer but I'd love to see it happen. I think Pribula is a stopgap until we get to Zollers (maybe in '26).

There's ignorance, and then there's ignore(ance).

In order to stay blissful, you are ignoring the fact that Penn St didn't want him to leave.

And of course, you would rather remain in that state than see Mizzou succeed.

"accurate comments". :lol:

What I said was reality. Drink ain't trusting BP to throw deep routes at will. He already said that ball security is his first priority. That's coach speak for I don't trust him.

Yes, accurate. Unless you are ready to share a quote from Drinkwitz on Pribula’s arm talent like woofy asked?

I have to thank you though. I have never seen someone read between the lines of a comment so poorly. Coach speak for he doesn’t trust a QB who he never mentioned. Hilarious.

Here is Andy Reid saying ball security is a top priority in 2022. Onemizzou will be along soon to explain how that means he doesn’t trust Patrick Mahomes.

They spend quite a bit of time talking about Pribula and that he could be one that surprises people. They said everyone knows he is an elite runner, but in High School he threw for over 2500yds and 33 passing TDs in 11 games and was regarded as an elite passer. I know there will be a lot of competition if Horn is healthy but kind of exciting to have him in the fold.
My issue, was that PSU has had mediocre to bad qb's for nearly a decade, and their starter was average to below average. So why couldnt he beat the kid out, ? favoritism?

Like him or not Pribula will be QB1 next year, barring injury.

It's been reported that Missouri paid him $1.5M to retain his services.

In your opinion, what does Missouri have to accomplish for a deal like this to be worth it for them?

hahahahahaha. um, no
Have any proof otherwise?
Well. They got one of the best receivers and running backs in the portal. Their presumed starting QB scores 14 points in the second half against Wisconsin. Granted, there is very little sample size with Pribula. But there is certainly no evidence Mizzou declines to an Iowa level offense. Is this how you react between starting QBs all the time? The overreaction is hilarious.
Pribula is a running QB that drink won't trust to throw fiendish so yes we're trending toward Iowa offense.
When did he say he doesn’t trust pribula, the $1.5M QB, to pass the football?
You don't read very well, I said he won't trust him. Pribula will be an average passer like Cook and if the OLine doesn't come together quickly then it'll be run, run, run, pass, run, run, run, pass.
Nope, it’s not my reading that’s a problem. You said drink won’t trust him. Therefore, in order to have such a take on the brand new guy who hasn’t thrown a pass, he must have said it at some point. Otherwise, you literally have no idea of Drinks opinion of pribulas passing ability. You’re just stating nonsense, as you normally do. Nothing new. Same ol’ same ol’ from onemizzou
woofy, proof that ignorance is bliss.
Except in reality everyone but the Penn St. coaches are pretty ignorant about what kind of talent Pribula has at this point. And no one has any idea how it translates to 4 quarters worth of football on a fall Saturday with Missouri. I did enjoy the irony of the guy whose every comment here revolves around an assumption they made up mention ignorance though, so thanks for that.
That's been my point from the day he committed. He's a 2nd string QB that we hope will progress into a real QB1. I don't have a lot of faith that he'll become a great passer but I'd love to see it happen. I think Pribula is a stopgap until we get to Zollers (maybe in '26).
Good, hopefully next time someone points out you are merely speculating you won’t confuse their accurate comments with ignorance.
"accurate comments". :lol:

What I said was reality. Drink ain't trusting BP to throw deep routes at will. He already said that ball security is his first priority. That's coach speak for I don't trust him.
My guess is that trust has to be gained as the OC the QB and receivers get comfortable with the playbook and tendencies each have.

I would hope ball security would always be a priority. Throwing into tight windows deep in your own territory I would think would be a tall order for 90-plus percent of college QB's.

Having confidence and being reckless are two different things.
