Lucas is a class act. Given the circumstances, I'd say he is making a great decision, especially since he already has his GT degree.

Find the best master's program you can. Not sure his major. Perhaps one of the California schools?

I think Lucas was probably the most accurate passer we had on the team this year. The problem was that he didn't have enough mobility to escape the inevitable pass rush from the offensive line's struggles. This move definitely makes sense for him long term but regardless, very happy for him that he got a GT degree out of the deal and will now have the opportunity to get a master's and play somewhere else. Best of luck to you, Lucas.

I think he would be a nice fit in a RPO offense like Wake. He is enough of a running threat to hold the LB close to the line and too shallow to cover.

I don't know. Since his injury, he just doesn't seem to have that initial burst he reportedly used to have. I think he'd be more of a fit in a traditional drop-back role with a great big offensive line in front of him. But I readily admit I could be wrong there. We shall see.

Best of luck to him. The transfer portal has been promising to QBs. If not for him then there’s still that GT degree.

Always liked this kid from the day he committed to us. Best of luck, young man. Your degree will serve you well

I wish our O-line was more stout. I feel like he could be a lot better than what we saw.

Best of luck. Cant help but like him, interested to see where he lands. I'll tune in to watch. Really think he is a special talent, just was hamstrung by injuries and a coaching change. Wish him all the best
