I have a suspicion that the Stone, Labanowitz, that’s on the roster now will be moving on.  It’s clear that he’s been recruited over.  And remember he lost the starting job last year due to an injury.  Could not have sat well with him.  The QB room already has 5.  I simply can’t believe there’s room for those 5 and this year’s 2 recruits.   Both 3star.  And he’s certainly good enough to help a D2 school.  I’m most interested in Stone Norton.  If he can take over from Lyles, who has proven to be an extremely average QB, at any point this spring will Lyles be back in the fall.  I wouldn’t think so.  Then the QB room will be down to 5 again.

I'm not sayin' -- I'm just sayin'!

The new Stone was Mr. Tennessee Football in 2018 - played in all 5 FIU games (all losses including to FCS Jacksonville St). Think he'll still be a redshirt Fr.

Agree we need an improvement over Lyles - scares me every time he throws a pass. Thought Labanowitz was a much cooler head back there - and more accurate!

With Norton and Foss, that's a very crowded QB roster!

(Last QB we sent to D2 - Austin Reed - won a National Championship at W. Florida last year..6 TD passes and 500+ yds in that game!)

Has anyone heard anything about fans being in the stands for football games this year?

My guess is they’re not allowed to and will wait as long as they can to make an announcement in hopes cases go down.  They were originally planning to have 3,000 fans at the SEMO game, but ended up having to limit it to player families only.
