I have no problem leaving because you want to be a starter but there is a time and place for it and bailing on your teammates and coaches less than a week before the first game is not the time or place. Welcome to the modern athlete where it’s all about me, me, me. For me, actions speak louder than words.
Gebbia gone.

I watched a lot of his games. He didn't do anything elite in high school. 99% of all plays they ran were out of the shotgun, 5 WR sets the majority of the time, and WR's would be open by about 10 yards on most plays. He never once ran the football for anything worth a lick when I watched his games.
He was the wrong recruit for Riley and the wrong player for Frost. He belongs in an offense that slings it 75% of the time out of the shotgun.
Not a single California school offered him a scholarship.
I bet it helped Martinez a lot having competition during the spring and summer. And I suspect TG thought he was going to win the battle. All in all, this isn’t great for our depth, but it isn’t the worth thing that could happen.
Us dudes have to stick together. It's a jungle out thereGlad you have my back too, Ohio.
Thinking about this whole situation from the parents' standpoint, I wonder how they felt about the thousands of dollars they spent on quarterback coaching going to waste and want that investment to pay some sort of dividend. Not to say that the parents are running the show, but I doubt they're saying "go ahead and be a backup quarterback in college, the money we've spent to make you a starter and hopefully into the NFL doesn't matter".
Lets not degrade TG here.
Comparing him to whomever we used to have that transferred, show us their credentials at the time of their leaving?
Only guy in history of cali hs ball ahead of TG is leading Washington to possibly another playoff appearance.
This hurts, it happens all the time.
Lets hope TG doesnt land somewhere capable to use the chip he has on his shoulder against us, we may not like that much.

I hear you Dr we in are in big trouble I wonder what other boneheaded decisions HCSF has made. We're doomed
I'm not dragging him down here, but I'm also not concerned in the least about playing a team he's quarterbacking, chip on his shoulder or not.
All that hope for the program just evaporated. Such a shame because I had some really high hopes for Frost.
Blame
Cant blame anyone here, the honesty and openess of our staff is called reality.
In regards to TG, his reality includes many options in a wet behind the ears yet career.
To say TG has no future because hes average or less doesnt speak well for AM, and I'm not buying it.
He has options because he's earned them.

You do understand, the family looks at thousands, well, money isnt a problem or concern high on the list here.
Wish he would have stayed, but wish him the best.
And look forward to watching him play somewhere

Its to bad he couldnt at least stuck out the year with the first game a week way. Hell, he might have ended up a starter by the second serious of the first game because of injury. Or played his way to starter by the third of fourth game. But i guess is was best for him to bale now,take a year out somewhere else, then hopefully not end up in the same situation.
So where does he go from here when he is shopping for a new school? Go some place that will guarantee he start after he sits out a year? Go to a school that has no real competition so he is guaranteed to start regardless? Not to many power 5 schools come to mind. although AJ Bush is starting at Illinois after a month on campus and I here Minnesota has a rough QB situation and is starting a redshirt freshmen. Oh yah, and New Mexico State might be a sure thing. Heck, or even Liberty they just moved to D1 and play New Mexico State twice in the same season, home and away.
I guess so much for the Calabasas connection.

I had us penciled in as national champions or at least 13-0 like CFU was last year. Now im saying we go 12-1 but Martinez still wins the heisman
He's a study rat, he will know our defense.
One thing the previous staff had for a strength was recognizing qb talent, previous staffs combined couldnt compare.
TG doesnt fit in with those qbs, nor does his history of accomplishments to date.
For AM to still be rated within the top 150 guys in the '18 class is truly remarkable, regarding his injury and playing time.
Playing in the UA game only solidifies their correct assessments of him.
To have TG push AM in a system tuned to AMs strengths knowing just how good AM truly is onlyspeaks very well for TG.
If he does have that chip on his shoulder, leaves to a team that plays us, its not an ordinary scenario, and shouldnt be compared to a Cody Green team as an opponent
In addition to the depth issue for this year it also means we probably need to add another QB recruit for next year—hope that doesn’t create issues with McCaffrey

I remember watching oregon and its slew of qbs, all of which were comparable to POB or TG, and how they left, one after another.
It happens, its going to happen, alot.
This wont be the last time we see this.
Just think Terry Wilson, at the time, his recruiting numbers were third best on that oregon team.
And third best as in non starters.
