This is awesome. Florida Mr. Football means a lot to me regardless of his offer list. True freshman QB for the win!

This kid reminds me of brady quinn. The college version of course lol. High praise I know, but his build and arm are very similar.

@zanderdiamont: @nickyt616 wear it well. I don't want to have to call the equipment room to force a jersey change.

Zander welcoming the new QB.

Football school doing football things. I wonder if Lagow feels the heat now. 

[Crimson and Cream 5,707]

Really hope this kid can have an immediate impact

I seriously doubt Lagow feels threatened by a freshman Nick Tronti unless he's a Tom Brady clone.   And with the other QB's still on our roster, I could envision a red-shirt year.

He might not feel threatened by Tronti specifically, but the new coaches we brought in run a different system than Wilson did and it isn't suited to Lagow's style of play. We have several other QB's who fit that system so he might see the writing on the wall. Hopefully that motivates him to put in extra work this offseason.

How is the Florida Mr. Football only a two star recruit? Does it have to do with his height? Seems odd to me.

Didn't go to camps. Would study and workout. Supposedly takes working out seriously like Tebow. Also his HS coach said he's a playbook guru basically

Got hurt his junior year in the playoffs. His HS isn't exactly a football powerhouse either.

ESPN released an updated scouting report for Tronti. 3* 76 grade, 32nd QB in the 2017 class. Compared to a less physical, but more athletic version of Sean White (Auburn).

I think he redshirts and Ramsey is our guy. Lagow comes in if Ramsey struggles. After next season Ramsey either has a hold on the spot or him and Tronti will battle for it

It'll be Lagow still, imo. Although we may have a leash on him.

I don't know about that one, maybe going into the spring, but he's literally the exact opposite type of QB that DeBord likes to use.

Exactly!! Its either Ramsey w him as backup or if Tronti really plays well in spring it will be him w Lagow as backup. Whichever young qb gets the call he will have a short leash for Lagow to come in. Unless he can work a miracle with Lagow I think it is telling how much of a push we made for Tronti.

True exactly why I think it is Ramsey's job. I would put it at....
Ramsey 50%
King 20%
Lagow 20%
Tronti 10%
