Speculation on Dylan’s Future

At this level you WANT players who are gunning for number one, don't you? If you picked up Dylan hoping he'll be happy as #2, that'd be anointing Moore as #1 no matter if he was the best or not. So, no better than Rhule theoretically anointing Raiola as the #1; something many here accused him of.
I’d feel better having guys gunning to be #1 if they would have the grit to stay and keep fighting if they ended up #2.
Thank you, I was just going to answer that and then I read your response and it's spot on!!!
He had a nice touch but was always late for supper . He was too slow of foot to be late. He didn’t have a fastball. I think the coach has pivoted well. Just my opinion….
After having pivoted in Carolina, he should have known Dylan was not the guy for our kind of play and additional pivot in Lincoln wouldnt be needed. The guy from UNLV is a difinite upgrade ya gotta get lucky once in a while
I am now actively rooting for Dylan Raiola to fail. F that guy.
I can't say as I'm surprised. Yes, we saw flashes of greatness during his time on the field for DONU but we also saw a lot of missteps. Possibly he's been eating Twinkies and HoHos while reading his imaginary press clippings. Dunno.
If his uncle had been a better OLINE coach Dylan would've been better and probably not taken so many sacks. However the drama that followed him with his family was more distracting to the team than anything else.
On Tuesday, in his first media appearance as an Oregon Duck, Raiola got real about his time with Nebraska. After confirming he's cleared from his previous injury and elaborating on his excitement to learn from Moore, Raiola admitted a few regrets from his previous home base of Lincoln, Nebraska.
"I'm very grateful for the time I had in Nebraska. I'm very grateful for the coaches, the people, and the fans, and everyone I came across, too. But like you said, you can't emulate game-speed reps. And I think there's a lot of instances of things that I could have did better to kind of have propel our team to win," Raiola said.
Though the sophomore quarterback did give a mixed bag of experiences from his previous program, he also made sure to emphasize the value of those experiences and how they contribute to his current team.
"But, use all those experiences for learning and propel not only myself, but this team forward. And however I can present ideas to help Dante, or whoever in the room. I'm gonna do my best to be the best teammate that I can be," Raiola added.
Oregon coach Dan Lanning confirmed that Raiola's mentality when joining the Ducks lay solely in developing and helping a team while moving away from the headlines that plagued him with the Cornhuskers. According to Lanning, Raiola was willing to join the Ducks regardless of Moore's decision, as he was searching for a new chapter.
“And obviously, he wanted to be here before he knew if Dante was gonna be back or not, just knowing that if that was an option, that was gonna be an opportunity for him to be able to grow and accelerate. It's more about where he was going," Lanning said. "Now, ‘Hey, am I gonna be the guy that's up there first guy going, or am I gonna be a guy that's gonna have an opportunity to develop and learn?’ I think all those things were really appealing to him and his family.”
Continuing to read about Dylan Raiola is almost as irritating as the corn on my little toe.
. . . and yet, I continue to follow this thread. WHY??
What is wrong with me?
I once asked my shrink that question. But after she answered for two and a half hours at $200 every fifty minutes, I couldn’t afford to ask her again.
