I just worry hes not mentally ready to carry a team. Arm talent yes but not there yet. Game manager is fine but we need a qb that can carry a team to be elite
Miava isn't QB1. I like the QB from South Dakota State Mark Gronoski to fill in for '25 giving Longstreet necessary time to develop in the College level. Great Podcast 👍💯
@PrestonsParadise With coaching staff of Riley Mark G. would be a perfect fit. Gronoski has been to the mountain top in winning Championship 🏆 he's a legit dual threat QB.
Maiava needs to be willing to run more he didn't take off not 1 time vs A&M.. if u look when he was at unlv he ran more idk if coach told him stay Ina pocket but I feel he plays better when he's running plus it will help open up more with the mobility and frame he has to start taking off using his legs
It's not in Maiva to run he's too slow. He would need a designed QB run play to be effective. He's definitely not a dual threat QB. He has a great arm, but he lacks the mechanics and mental awareness of a polished QB. I'd like SC to try and get Gronoski from SDSU if he's available. Mark G. is a proven and legit dual threat QB in Big games.✌️
I like that Jayden Maiava gave our receivers a chance this season although had questionable decision making but can be corrected with a full offseason because he still is a young QB. Next season, I believe we will be much better on offense and that we can be a dangerous team with a better defense led by Anthony Lucas, Jah Jarrett, Keeshawn Silver, and Kamari Ramsey. This season he reminded me of Anthony Richardson's (22' season, what do people think?
Jayden Maiava is 11-5 as a starter. Notable wins over Texas A&M, Vanderbilt, Air Force, Nebraska and UCLA. 11-5 in the NFL makes you a Pro-Bowler and multimillionaire franchise QB. Dude is a Sophomore and most elite QB's dont peak until their Sr year like Bo Nix, Dylan Gabriel, Joe Burrow.
You’re the first guy that I saw they made a lot of sense and still supports Maiava all these are the lames out here turning it back on him especially the fans and the podcasters but when you look at people actual have a sports talk shows like Colin Coherd they support him. I truly hate most SC fans they are so unrealistic
I am very confident in 14. As fans we need to slow down and let players develop. We talk about development of all positions except QB. We accept our QBs to come in with no hick ups. The hicks are the growth. We need to be patient.
I think that Maiava did well but does have some areas where he can improve on: - He can't stare down receivers and has to learn to look the defense off. - He needs to learn to use everyone and all parts of the field. The TEs were not thrown to enough in this game. When they were thrown to, the throws were off. -He needs to do a better job on the RPOs and keep the ball more often. - He needs to bulk up and become a more robust QB. Riley's offense is designed to take advantage of every part of the field and for a QB to use his athleticism and mobility. I think that is why Moss's lack of mobility kept him from being as successful as he could have been,. Every QB that Riley has coached and had success with has been mobile and athletic (Hurts, Caleb, and Murray being hyper-athletic while Baker being above average athletic). I think that Jayden is athletic enough to be successful
Go back to Maiava’s last two games last season and he throw 5 interceptions against Boise State and Kansas. This year 6 interceptions with two terrible throws against N.D. Will be a backup in 2025. LR will bring in another QB for one season and then Longstreet takes over. As far as arm strength and size look at Kyler Murray or Drew Brees….Fight On!
I’m thinking like u. Need experience quality one year qb then Longstreet. We need elite qb to be elite. Isn’t that what SC is all about being elite again
Maiava is a toolsy QB prospect. He got to start a third of the season; very valuable development was done w/ him this yr. I understand the USC urge to build a couple B1G contender teams around him
We threw Miller away in a C/S manner- I say give Maiava the season off and time to train up, then make a decision. The picks are because of LRs pass happy calls instead of a true ground game !! We got some potential smashers in big RBs Jackson and Petersen (both 6 ft, 220 and 230 !!) Plus Lemon and lane as WRs and two big TEs ! We need accuracy from Maiava and a big D and O line plus smaller speedy tough additional RBs like Woody Marks or Joyner ( and we'll get one in the spring portal)
Couldn’t have said it better. With the defense SC is finally gonna present on the field, all JM needs to do is be a game manager. Get the ball to his play makers (Lane $ 🍋), hand it to BJack, and not turn it over or make costly mistakes. He’ll get there.
Our defense is no were close to shutdown. A&m went up and down the field with ease. All year defense has half a chance to to close out the game and failed to. It happen again a&m. Maiva just need to not have the 2 bad decisions a game he have. He clean that up and he will be fine. A lot of his interception this year has been miscommunication with the wr which will come with reps. He had 3 interceptions but really 2. The seconds interception was a quick screen and soon as he got the ball defender was right in hia face because of missed assignment by the lineman
@ Yeah, not shut down at all but definitely improved and it’ll be interesting to see the difference having some massive bodies in the middle makes. Just saying the team as a whole is good enough and we have enough play makers at the skill positions, to where if JM cleans up the mistakes it’ll void the need for late game heroics.
he's got to better from the neck up ,some of those throwing decision were straight up crazy , and run the ball more on the rpo otherwise he's no different than moss.
A true freahman QB Remember JT Daniels? And Nebraska's Dylan Raiola both 5 star QB's that started as a TF and both teams played close to .500 ball. It's rare that a TF meets expectations
Thanks to Maiva for his contributions and wish him well. Honestly we need another challenger.
I concur 👍🏽 with everything ‼️ you’re saying. WeAreSC Fight On 🗡️✌🏽💪🏽😤great Show as always. Thank you 🙏🏽 😁

Seems like a great player interested to see how the talent translates to the FBS P4 level. Thanks ✌🏾

He does. I'm a UNLV ticket holder.

Maiava didn't run cause LR told him to stay put and throw- same reason why we saw Miller Moss getting MASHED early in the season!

It’s time for a too freshman to lead us!!

We need to run the ball better and consistently. We ran 31 times for 105 yards. We need a center, right guard and tackle
he's got to better from the neck up ,some of those throwing decision were straight up crazy , and run the ball more on the rpo otherwise he's no different than moss.
wrong question. What usc needs from their head coach. Everything that Riley can't provide.
@@brianjacob8728 😂
To many mistakes 3 interceptions in first half. 2 pick 6ers against Notre Dame. I just don't know if going with Longstreet wouldn't be a better idea
A true freahman QB Remember JT Daniels? And Nebraska's Dylan Raiola both 5 star QB's that started as a TF and both teams played close to .500 ball. It's rare that a TF meets expectations
@hrpickinstuff everybody is different just the mistakes can't continue
I'd like to see more fire in him if he is going to be number
Jayden needs to become a steadier QB.....too many bad throws
