He's 63.8% on the season and had 17 TDs to 2 Ints going into that game. Add in 350 yards and 4 tds on the ground.

TDV's last year at Syracuse he tossed 2 picks in the first 3 games against Rutgers, a MAC team and a CAA team before losing his job.

I don't know if Uigalelei will transfer, if he'd consider us, or if we'd consider him. But to my untrained eye we could certainly do worse. And if the staff sees something there I'm sure he'd do great, i.e. TDV.
Further to my earlier point we are in no position to say no to a DJU type talent IF he would even consider us.

We are full blown delusion if we think the opposite.

As did Dave Wilson and Juice Williams.
In case you can't tell by my username and avatar, I have a special place in my heart for Juice, but let's be real here. Juice's career high completion rate in a season was under 58% and he never even achieved a 2-to-1 TD to Int ratio. He did a ton for the program and his takedown of #1 OSU will always be one of my favorite sports memories, but if we're being honest, DJU has already shown he can be a better QB than Juice.

The comments I have read (albeit few) who would not want DJU on next years team are absolutely outside of their minds.

DJU would be the best quarterback talent to ever step foot on that field in Orange and Blue and its not particularly close.
Uhhhh, not even close. I've seen a lot of his games - he is an all airport QB but he just isn't that good on the field, even with a phenomenal receiving corps. I wouldn't trade TDV for him straight up, let me put it that way.

We cannot underestimate BB’s record at Wisconsin helps us. Opposing coaches could try to dismiss this years success as temporary like Ron Zook and Ron Turner’s. But BB can counter that his formula works here as it has in the past for sustained success.

And the rapid decline of a bunch of teams in the West is certainly quite fortuitous. Rivals looking like a$$ makes us look all the better. Loving all of it.
