Hear me out.
Paul Johnson had success at GT until recruiting dropped off because no one wanted to play in his option system. The portal changes that.
Given the price tag of top QBs, If you are a middling P5 program why not bypass that position all together?
Your NIL dollars will go further and you can get better talent than recruiting out of high school for the system.
If SC had spent the Rattler and wells money on more rbs and an option QB or converted athlete they would have won more games than they did.
I think there is value to be had.
