Mr. Brent Schaeffer

[Zonald]

Figured I should bump this thread up before Harvey starts another one on Schaeffer.

Too late!

I get a real kick our of Howie and his comments on Harvey Jones, mysery guest poster. Is there really a need for 3 simultaneous Schaffer threads on this board Harvey?

I am getting a little sick about this situation also. Hey, if he comes, great, glad to have him. If not, oh well, good luck in your endeavors. To have this many QB's in camp is great. What I am looking for is one who will lead us. Not a bunch who will surfice. We need a real leader out there. One who will take control and do whatever it takes. Plus one whose skills are one that molds our offense. If this is the kid, then so be it. If not, then let's get on it!   Reaper

YellowBull....A lot has happened since that was posted. Today for example Clemson signed a Top QB for 2006. It has been widely reported that they are no longer interested in Schaeffer.
