Not sure who he is going to throw to, or who will be blocking for him.  Bretty sure the entire offense, except the RBs, went in the portal.  But it's something.

I think nitpicking his stats is deceiving.  You could do that with many quarterbacks, who just throw short passes to shifty receivers, who gained 20 yards after the catch. 
I'm not necessarily nitpicking the stats, but more pointing out the talent around him. Do you think there's another Marvin in college football? Or anyone close? From my seat, he's the best receiver in the last 10 years of college football. I'm just saying a 5 yard crossing route to Marvin is going to have a far different outcome than a 5 yard crossing route to Roman Wilson. Not a knock on Roman nor necessarily McCord. It also doesn't mean McCord cannot do more. I'm just curious how much that impacted his game.  

To make a comparison, I wondered the same about Chad henne. Was Henne that good or did his numbers look that good because he consistently just threw the ball up and Braylon came down with a miracle catch.  A long winded version of me just uncertain how high McCord's ceiling is because I'm confused if he's very talented or had the luxury of elite talent making plays to make him look better. I'm simply not sure.

Fair.  No doubt having that kind of talent around him helped him.  he did some good things. But he also missed some pretty wide-open receivers that he never even saw. 

I guess it will be very interesting to see how he does at his next stop

I am - both.He had talent around him that really surpassed his.Kyle didn’t progress through the year, inconsitent in reads and throws and looked like he couldn’t get off the field fast enough.  KM was overrated because of Marvin as a high school teammate. Been reading Kyle's dad has been in the coaches ear not sure if that's accurate or not. Very replaceable and he very well may be a diva or not.But IMO he sees the writing on the wall,position will be open in spring camp and he may think it shouldn't

.  KM was overrated because of Marvin as a high school teammate. 
This was my question coming into the season. I saw some spring practice clips and I wondered if he was so highly talked about in HS because of Marvin. I've started to wonder the same about Allar if his success in HS was because of the system as the QB that replaced him is suddenly a superstar too.

As far as the drama part, it might be a blessing for him to leave for OSU. It can't be easy to go from a personality like CJ to a drama guy for fans nor coaches.

Georgia quarterback Brock Vandagriff plans to enter transfer portal (247sports.com)

This guy is pretty good, IMHO, mobile with a strong arm, good height, etc.

As much a Klatt was willing McCarthy back to Michigan, if Michigan is in on a QB who is apparently looking for close to $2 million, I'm guessing its not as a high end backup

Wisconsin picks one up. Should be a good player in Madison.

Bigger check came through.

For now its a one time transfer, and waivers are done.  So maybe over time, some of these kids realize they shot their wad too soon.  Granted then there will be social media pressure on the NCAA to grant a waiver, even though waivers are done, and they will cave.

This all goes away if you put the one year sit out rule back in, and get rid of waivers

Dante Moore isn't going to Michigan. I'll believe it when I see it. Only reason Michigan is included on that list is he's from Detroit and his dad is a diehard Michigan fan. 

Kid didn't give Michigan the time of day when he was a HS recruit and they went after his ass HARD. Believe he was the only QB they offered and recruited in '23.

He'll make more money by returning to Georgia than he would in the NFL, considering he's not a 1st round pick
