I’m not apparently their coach recruited him. Can’t remember the whole story but there was an existing relationship and they needed a QB

Stayed in the league but not on IU's schedule next season, correct?  I think that was one of the determining factors on where he landed.

Smart kid. A Northwestern degree is valuable for someone not likely to play professional sports.

Managed to leave for a better program that he'll probably start at. Good for him.

That's true, but we could meet them in the league championship game.

Better program, but I wouldn't say it's a better team next year.  That offense was brutal last year and the receiving corps was epically bad.

[Alford Bailey 12,375]

Good for him and no big deal since we dont play them. Ramsey will probably thrive there.

I’m pretty surprised by this. Northwestern returns a pretty full QB room next year including their co starters in Aidan Smith and Hunter Johnson. He’s far from a lock to beat those two out. At least at IU he was a lock for QB2.

They were both terrible last year.

I’m not fully prepared to blame those stats on the QBs alone and TJ Green is coming back for a 6th year. They had zero experienced WRs last year. I’m not saying he can’t beat them out but I would have thought he would have picked a better situation for himself.

I think he fits well in a Fitzgerald system. Hes a tough grind-it-out-not-always-pretty kind of player. Fits the mold there IMO. Good luck to him.

Happy the Hoosiers don’t have Northwestern in 2020. NW has always been an easy team to root for in my opinion and Peyton seems like a great fit. If there’s any school in the B1G I was happy to see him transfer to it’s the Wildcats. Best of luck 12!

This guy is comparing Ramsey to Joe Burrow? Really? And according to Ramsey's dad, Tom Allen told Peyton he'd start next year. Not sure I buy that. But I suspect you're gonna want to put a Northwestern spin on things. (Especially since Greenstein went to Northwestern).

Wish Peyton all the best. Hope he kicks the crap out of the Boilers next year.
