Patterson enters the Portal

[NDSUBowler]

I wish him the best of luck! A tough spot to stay here if he wants to get meaningful snaps.

He undoubtedly helped play a part in NDSU winning the title last year and I appreciate what he gave to the program.

[Kevin]

Best of luck to him!

I hope this means the southpaw is going to fill that role in the offense this year.

[tolnabison]

In other news, is Herdbot okay? I mean he had QP destined for the NFL.

Wish all the best to QP.

Best of luck to QP. Handled a tough situation incredibly well and no doubt played an important role in us winning the championship last year. While I think this hurts our QB room a bit, at least from a depth/leadership perspective, I think we're all excited to see Cole get meaningful snaps this year and he likely has a bit more legit QB passing threat to go along with his legs (calves).

Yeah having the ability to throw off that QB power package is going to be a game changer.

[El_Chapo]

I thought May 1 was the last day for the portal? what am I missing here.

Best of luck to Q.

[Professor Chaos]

The Bison were undefeated in games he started (and appeared in for that matter)... not many QBs can say that. Best of luck to Quincy, he's a champion no matter what happens from here on out.

[SomeBeach]

I would love to see him run a Triple Option offense... but don't know how he feels about boats. Best of luck, QP.

[Hammerhead]

Best of luck to Q.

That's what I thought, but it sounds like there exceptions where players can get a waiver for things like being closer to a sick family member, mental heath reasons, etc. I'm guessing he has one more year of eligibility left.

[tolnabison]

I thought May 1 was the last day for the portal? what am I missing here.

Best of luck to Q.

May 1st is the last day for underclassmen to receive immediate eligibility for next season. If QP graduates, he can transfer anywhere without having to sit out If he hasn't graduated, he will have to sit out a year if he stays division 1 (FBS or FCS). If he transfers down, he won't have to sit out. He can also apply for a waiver not to have to sit out. I am assuming he is graduating, and will be a graduate transfer. But maybe not?

[123Gobison]

If you are not a ND kid then very less incentive to ride the pine. I dont blame him.

[Hammerhead]

Does South Carolina still need a QB?

[El_Chapo]

Does South Carolina still need a QB?

great reply

[blackdiamond2]

South Carolina got Spencer Rattler.

[WeAreThePride]

I can't say I'm surprised.

Best of luck, Quincy. You played your ass off. Hope you find a landing spot.

[HerdBot]

This!

In other news, is Herdbot okay? I mean he had QP destined for the NFL.

Wish all the best to QP.

I'm a little bummed because year 2 is typically when things start to click, but it was obvious to him that playing time would have been limited with Cole Payton, who everyone wants to see what he can do.

Quincy did a heck of a job last year in a really tough spot and helped us win some games. Hopefully he finds a spot to showcase his skills and get to the next level

[Professorbum]

Refreshing. An NDSU portal story that has no connection to Dave Richman.

[Hammerhead]

I hope he does well in the future as long as he isn't playing for an opponent.

[HerdistheWord]

Kid did what was asked for us and we have a lot of young talent at the position. Hard to fault him for this one. I wish him the best of luck as he always represented us well.

[TAILG8R]

Good luck to QP. He helped the Bison when games and he seemed like a quality team mate. Hope he finds success wherever he goes.

I will say this relieves some anxiety I had about Cole getting playing time and the future of the QB room.

[SDbison]

This portal thing is the dumbest idea ever! What do you expect from a bunch of woke liberals who run the NCAA. Just like politicians with the same ideals it's "let's try a new radical thing and see what happens". Lol.......on a fast track to fail. How did that defund the police thing go?

Lawsuits had everything to do with this. Not Liberalism.

[td577]

Best of luck to Q.He already used his pne free transfer so unless he uses a graduate transfer or waiver, he has to sit out a year. It seems like he can probably get a waiver, so it didn't matter when he left.

The losing school can pull a scholarship anytime a student/athlete enters the portal, so QP had no advantage entering any earlier than he had to. There are still schools out there needing a QB, so he'll be fine finding playing time. I think Montana has zero QBs on their roster right now.

Spoken from a spot of true ignorance blinded by political anger.

As TD mentioned a post above mine, QP already used 'the portal thing' that you bemoan and will likely be grad transferring, which has been around for a very long time.

But keep on crying.

Agreed. Was a really solid representation of the team during his time here. Was a good season last year and he played his part. Hope he remembers his time in Fargo well.

Well, virtually every police department got massive funding increases and crime went up (from modern lows) anyway.

Anyway, cry more

His Twitter profile says "NDSU Alum" so pretty sure he'll be a grad transfer. He'll have 2 years left if he wants to use his COVID year freebie.

[CAS4127]

Post #220 in QP thread.

[BisonHorns]

Thank you for you time and contribution to the team. I was hoping he would stay on as linebacker or running back. I still believe other positions would highlight his abilities more.

[SafeTeeJ]

TTT
Discus Quincy’s portal transfer on this official transfer thread. Thanks. :bow:

[scottietohottie]

I just hope he files his taxes right.

[El_Chapo]

you think he's gonna play somewhere?

[KSBisonFan]

Best of luck to Quincy wherever he ends up.

Can the coaches just get back to trusting their recruiting process for HS QBs? I know it's tempting to bring in FBS QBs, but it hasn't worked. We seem to have a magic wand with developing QBs, so keep doing it.

[NDSU1980]

Yes I do. The guy has talent. I think he would have been better off staying and switching positions but it's his call. He'll do just fine in another program.

WDAY had an interview with QP last night and reported that he is graduating this spring. I was thinking he only has one year left, but it does make more sense to even think about a transfer with two more years left.

I think they do. Brining QP in was because Trey left... Needed a quick band aid...

[THEsocalledfan]

Good luck to QPIII. Seemed like a good dude; wish him nothing but the best.

What's interesting is what's not being said......if he could have had same role, my guess is he sticks around. However, I bet the coaches made clear they need to get Cole on the field and that was going to decrease his snaps.

Pure speculation, but I'm very doubtful moving for him makes sense unless this is the case. He needs to find a new position as he has way, way too much talent NOT to play in the NFL.

I couldn't imagine a post from you that sums up your contributions to the BV conversation more precisely than this one. Just perfect.

You ARE reliable, however. We can always count on you to be pissed off about something and then somehow blame "woke" liberals. When was it that Fox News told you to use that word whenever you're having trouble injecting enough "Get off my lawn!! into your written thoughts?

[THEsocalledfan]

What position would you see him playing in the NFL?

I think the most natural fit would be a hybrid RB/WR. I don't see TE as I think the blocking would be tough to pick up that fast. I'm thinking like Cordarrelle Patterson. You'd think he could pick up kickoff return, too.

well, based on how well he caught the wide open throw to him in the JMU game last December, I'd say his WR abilities aren't too good.

[SomeBeach]

Yes I do. The guy has talent. I think he would have been better off staying and switching positions but it's his call. He'll do just fine in another program.

As an option or Wildcat QB, I agree. But any offense that relies too much on him passing... not based on what we saw here.

I don't what was hurt by bringing in Quincy. They had a big gap in QB room seniority between Zeb Noland and Cam Miller. Quincy won every game he started and was a beast running the ball as QB2 later in the season which contributed to a national title. I'd think knowing how it turned out the coaches would've still brought him in.

The transfer portal is going to be part of the game no matter what going forward, I hope the coaches use it and take advantage of what NDSU offers transferring student-athletes. Some transfer will work out and some won't but the same can be said for high school recruits.

I agree that in hindsight nothing was hurt by bringing in Zeb and Quincy. Trey leaving early messed up the QB room, but if Cam and/or Cole had transferred out, this place would have had a bigger meltdown than some of the gameday threads. Gabe would have started an NFL hall of fame thread for Quincy and who knows what EC8CH would have done. Thankfully, Bisonville didn't have to endure that.

Anyway, in Cam and Cole I trust!

[BigHorns]

Good luck to QP, hope he finds what he is looking for and can make the pros. He was a real asset and team player.

The QB schedule was fucked when Trey left. Quincy was undefeated as a starter and that gave Cam much needed time to develop. Cam in week 7 was obviously much better than he would have been in week 1. Entz talked about his progress in practice throughout the year.

Same could be said about Zeb. As bad as Cam was as a true freshman, he would have been even worse go start the spring season

In the end, we had 1 bad covid season that in hindsight was such a joke of a year, it doesn't even count in my books. I was listing to the Bison Report Podcast and they said they were so low on players, some coaches had to participate in drills. No joke

[ByeSonBusiness]

Seems like a nice kid but wasn't good at the things needed to run an offense. Good luck to him.

I think they do trust their HS recruiting of QBs. QP was brought in because Trey left for the NFL unexpectedly. That's all. Best of like to QP...seems like a class act.

That's pretty presumptuous. Personally I think Cam would've been much better by the end of last spring had he started after the Illinois St when he injected life into a lifeless team to lead them to a win in that game instead of waiting until the end of the spring when they faced both national finalists and a top 10 EWU before starting him. Consequently, I think he also would've been better going into the fall and, who knows, he might've even beaten out Patterson for the starting job with the extra experience in the spring. Water under the bridge at this point but Cam has already proven the doubters wrong so I'd bet on him only getting better with more game experience.

[Hammerhead]

If Quincy can improve his receiving skills I could see him getting a shot at the NFL. With a 53-man roster versatility is a big plus.

Cam wasn't even close to being ready, that's why he didn't win the job. Huge difference between week 1 and 7. When your not an elite athlete (hes a solid athlete) like our prior QBs, the odds are stacked against you and you need to be a great passing QB first and know the offense at a higher level, and cant rely on running...

I will say, Cam probably would have won most, if not all of those games anyways because the opponents weren't that strong and he would have been even a better QB, week 7 with more reps. So you could make the argument that Quincy slowed the development of Cam

By the end of the year, Cam was a very good QB and he should take the next step to great this year. When I say very good, I'm comparing him to our NFL guys

[WeAreThePride]

Carson and Trey were both diamonds in the rough that we identified. Neither was highly recruited/rated. I think Carson had an offer from Western Michigan and Trey had some walk on interest from MN as a safety or something?

Both came to NDSU for the opportunity to play QB. Looks like a multi million dollar gamble that paid off.

Cole is still going to have a tough time seeing the field even without Quincy there. I wasn't impressed with Cam prior to last year as he didn't look anything close to a three star as mentioned above from a phsycial standpoint, but he played exceptional last year. He may not be physically imposing, but he has the ability if he continues to improve to be an exceptional college QB for us. QB in our offense can be done with average physical traits and exceptional mental traits and this is the case with alot of colleges. We can dominate without having a great running QB if the QB can do it with his head and arm.

Cam got thrown in as a true freshman when Zeb didn't pan out. He didn't have a mentor like everyone else did. He found a way to grow as a sophomore.

I like him for 2 more years and then Cole for 2. We're in great shape.

How do you know he wasn't even close to being ready at the start of the fall? People look at his spring numbers and forget that the majority of his passing happened against two elite FCS defenses in SDSU and SHSU. It's possible he wasn't ready at the start of the fall but it's also possible the coaches saw a guy in Quincy Patterson who was bigger, faster, and stronger with a better arm than Cam and saw him a much more dynamic option. But starting with the UND game last fall defenses had cracked the code and figured out that if you blitz the holy hell out of Quincy and don't let him run he doesn't have the ability to consistently burn you with quick throws.

Cam probably wasn't ready to be a starter in spring 2021 but he was a better option than Zeb Noland and I still think if he gets a couple more starts against UND and UNI instead of them continuing to trot out Zeb the entire team is better set up for the spring playoffs and going into the fall with a more experienced Cam Miller.

HerdBot's post lost me at Cam not being an elite athlete...but the comment about not even close to ready at the beginning of the year is probably just as bad...no way to know where he was at. Not like he was there watching practice.

It's possible he wasn't ready at the start of the fall but it's also possible the coaches saw a guy in Quincy Patterson who was bigger, faster, and stronger with a better arm than Cam and saw him a much more dynamic option. But starting with the UND game last fall defenses had cracked the code and figured out that if you blitz the holy hell out of Quincy and don't let him run he doesn't have the ability to consistently burn you with quick throws.

Cam probably wasn't ready to be a starter in spring 2021 but he was a better option than Zeb Noland and I still think if he gets a couple more starts against UND and UNI instead of them continuing to trot out Zeb the entire team is better set up for the spring playoffs and going into the fall with a more experienced Cam Miller.

Gabe knows QB's... He read his 40 time and saw some clips on the WDAY 6pm news and knew he wasn't ready to play then... Knew it would be a week 7 time frame...

How do I know? Ask the coaches why they made the decision?

Cam playing late as a true freshman is insane in itself, much less earlier and in a spring season with a covid camp. Cam was probably still trying to figure out the super basic shit while Zeb, as bad as he was, at least had an understanding of the offense. Cam hadn't even taken a snap under center at that point and wasn't even close to ready when he took over for Zeb. He wasn't even close at the end of the season.

We sucked in the spring because Roehl was trying to run a Trey type offense with Zeb. Zeb can't run worth a shit. Like any defense is going to key on him on the read option. It was so dumb.

Last year, the coaches had 0 players with experience at QB, so they had to dumb down the offense and do everything out of shotgun and run the read option. Obviously QP2 was the guy who could run, so it was easier to disguise his weaknesses. Cam wasn't an effective runner his first year

Fast forward to later in the year, and Cam was running the whole offense under center, mixing in runs, and running the short passing game as good as any QB had recently.

I am sure our coaches do know... That's not what I said... You seem to have a pulse on QB's going off their 40 times and some youtube video's you watched from their recruiting tapes...

Fuck I hate the offseason.

You both have a fucking point, who gives a shit? You're very likely to start the fucking P5 transfer over the RS Freshman who is still shell shocked from being dragged into the mix in a shitty, goofy, unusual short season.

[OrygunBison]

You libtards sure stick together like 6th grade girls.

What's funny, is that that's all you got. I basically vote and root for things based on either the cause of civil liberties (let me keep my guns and please stay out of my wife's pants) or just following the money and making sure that we're not throwing good money after bad. Run the country like a business and make sure that there's well-rounded financial backing on all (most) decision-making. I almost never pick a side based on emotion or what is debatably "fair". A guy like you thinks that anyone that isn't an ultra rightwing nutjob is by definition a libtard and that there's no room for discussion on the matter. It's fuckers like you that are ruining this country because there's no way to have a meaningful conversation with brainwashed, irrational, and dumb.

Tony, when you ban me or at least vaporize this post, please do me the courtesy of removing all of his (and others') libtard posts. It's tiring. (And please accept my apology in advance. Sometimes, I just can't hold back. Sorry.)

Yeah and if I could run 2 seconds faster in the 100 I'd have gone to the Olympics.

He's not an NFL player. Period.He will get a minimum of a camp invite and I will put money on it. I am not even a gambler and I am that sure of it.

At what position? He didn't seem like a burner to me so WR not in the question. He isn't going to get an invite for QB unfortunately. Great kid and I wish him all the luck in the world and you never know it could happen as Chris Board playing this long I wouldn't have guessed when he was a Junior or even a Senior.

Yeah, I'm not really sure the positional fit at the next level either. He seems like more of a TE than a WR since the NFL loves to put athletes like former college basketball players at TE but his hands sure didn't impress in the only time he had a chance to catch the ball last year (dropped what likely would've been a TD vs JMU). Maybe it's a Taysom Hill-like role??? He does have some unteachable characteristics like size, strength, and arm strength that might make him attractive to an NFL coach with a big ego that thinks he can teach him footwork, accuracy, etc.

Plus he's never blocked against competition of any skill level.

Sorry to his fans, but it ain't gonna happen.

[reformedUNDfan]

He's a running back, and has a very high ceiling there, and would likely get a shot at that spot as a camp guy at worst after last season. Another year of getting 10 carries a game plus some wildcat could easily get him a contract or better if he maintains his level of performance there. He has to prove his hands at a high level next year to get even a chance at wr/te though.

He will probably get a camp invite if he starts at QB somewhere next year and maintains performance, as some NFL team that likes to chuck it deep will take deep look.

He doesn't like contact. He always said as much when asked and he showed it on the field. Not that he's afraid of it, just doesn't love violence like Luepke does.

When he gets going, he's fast as hell. But he needs to go untouched for 10 yards to start accelerating. No chance in hell he's an NFL running back. Or WR and probably not a tight end either. These are all positions he's never played in college and would be really difficult to learn in just a year to perform at the NFL level.

But it's okay, he's got free college, a great head on his shoulders and from judging how he conducts himself he's a great person. He'll be very successful in life, but not in the NFL.

Completely based, and reasonable take alert. Mods, can we get this guy banned, pretty sure this is simply not allowed on this website

[bison22]

so what happens if no one picks him up? Is he allowed to come back to NDSU and play? I'm sure that would open up a whole mess though.

Pretty sure that will never happen when a kid enters the portal, that bridge is burned, that should be understood by all involved. Definitely do not want to open that can of worms!

No you’re accurate. It’s very much a boomer take but I already miss the “old days”.

Also isn’t re-al Mitchell qb at temple?

He might have a similar role with Temple. Hes not expected to beat out Mathis for the starting job there.

if qp really went to "temple" to have the same role he had here it tells me that he knew that he wasn't going to keep that role here once the golden calves start getting reps out of the qb power formo.

[El_Chapo]

Quincy is IN!!!

1-3 passing.

down 30-0 to.duke.

[El_Chapo]

6-11 64 yards passing on the year for Quincy. Temple went with Freshman EJ Warner over Dwhan Mathis . so Quincy is #3 and has a QB draw package like he did at NDSU 16 rushes for him so far but only 64 yards.
