08/17/22 - Chance Nolan, rSr/2024, Texas Christian, 6-3, 209 (DS#999 QB) + More +

Coach Jonathan Smith has yet to publicly declare who will start at quarterback for OSU in the Sept. 3 Boise State opener. An announcement may not come until the middle of next week, or perhaps even Monday of game week. But barring an injury or something unforeseen, Nolan is Oregon State's starting quarterback. He's getting more than 80 percent of the reps with the No. 1 offensive unit in practice. From viewing practice and hearing what others think, Nolan - who started 12 games last season - is improved. There remains a battle in camp at quarterback, but it's for No. 2 between Ben Gulbranson and Tristan Gebbia. The view from here is Gulbranson has the edge, but there's time for Gebbia to make an impression. - The Oregonian

08/12/22 - Chance Nolan, rSr/2024, Texas Christian, 6-3, 209 (DS#999 QB) + More +

It's rapidly becoming a thing in college football. Be a quarterback, get a name, image and likeness deal. Not for all, but the list of quarterbacks landing significant opportunities, some into high seven-figure range, are growing. Even in the Pac-12, there's USC quarterback Caleb Williams with reports of NIL partnerships worth $2.4 million. Washington State's NIL collective put together a deal worth $90,000 for Cameron Ward when he transferred. Others in the conference are cashing in or on the verge.

Oregon State quarterback Chance Nolan? Since partnering with a marketing agency about nine months ago, Nolan says he has a small clothing line and a deal with a memorabilia company. "Nothing really too much," Nolan said. Nolan is aware of NIL quarterback deals, but it doesn't faze him. "I try not to look at that stuff, man. I'm more for my teammates," Nolan said. "I've never been somebody who's made it about myself. Seeing that stuff, that's great for those guys. But I'm here. I'm loyal to this team, I'm loyal to Oregon State. I just want to play football and get to the next level." That's not to say quarterbacks who land lucrative NIL deals aren't "team" players. In this era, it's possible to be loyal to the school, and still make endorsement money. Nolan's answer is simple: win games. "If we're 3-0 and beat USC, things can change," Nolan said. "That's kind of what we're focused on. You win, and that stuff comes with winning." - The Oregonian

08/08/22 - JaTravis Broughton, rSr/2025, Texas Christian, 5-11, 188 (DS#108 CB) + More +

Arguably the best news as Utah looks forward to practice in full pads next week: The secondary, so devoid of depth late last season that running back Micah Bernard started at cornerback in the Rose Bowl, is now healthy. All-Pac-12 cornerback JT Broughton is back from a torn labrum, while Faybian Marks and Zemaiah Vaughn, both lost down the stretch to season-ending injuries, were given full green lights for camp. More good news: Fifth-year senior safety R.J. Hubert remains healthy after missing nearly all of the 2021 season following a freak knee injury on the first play of the spring game. - Salt Lake Tribune

08/05/22 - Marcel Brooks, rSr/2025, Texas Christian, 6-2, 215 (DS#124 OLB) + More +

Senior linebacker Marcel Brooks has had quite the journey. From a five-star recruit to promising freshman at LSU to having to switch positions at TCU. Brooks has been through it all. The former blue chip recruit is back at linebacker and looks to have added on some much needed weight to his frame. Brooks is listed at 194 pounds on the roster, but could be closer to 200 after committing to the strength and conditioning plan. Brooks ran with the second team during 11-on-11 and brought Blair Conwright down for a nice tackle. - Fort Worth Star

08/02/22 - Chance Nolan, rSr/2024, Texas Christian, 6-3, 209 (DS#999 QB) + More +

Oregon State redshirt junior quarterback Chance Nolan (6-3, 210) returns after starting 12 games last season, hitting on 204 of 318 passes for 2,677 yards, 19 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Coach Jonathan Smith believes Nolan gained the experience to continue the Beavers' improvement this year. OSU won five of its first seven games last yearand earned a bowl bid for the first time since 2013. The Beavers lost to Utah State, 24-13 in the LA Bowl and finished the season 7-6. "What I love about Chance is how competitive he is and I think he displays that in his style of play, being competitive in the pocket but also extending the play and getting some extra yards, getting first downs," Smith said. "He did have a lot of good games for us. I thought he improved from his first year to this last year and right now he's heading into year three. We're counting on him taking that next step into being a three-year starting quarterback because he's got a skill set of throwing the ball, athletic, competitive." - Gazette Times

08/01/22 - Max Duggan, Sr/2023, Texas Christian, 6-2, 207 (DS#13 QB) + More +

When it comes to the looming quarterback competition, TCU head coach Sonny Dykes has a clear vision for what he wants from the winner. "I always thought that playing quarterback is like playing point guard. You're distributing the ball to other guys and your job is to make them look really good. The guy that makes everybody look the best is typically the best player," said Dykes, the first-year coach who opens camp next week. There are currently five quarterbacks on the roster with Max Duggan and Chandler Morris expected to be the primary contenders for the job. All of them, including redshirt freshman Sam Jackson, will be starting with a clean slate as Dykes searches for his field general. "I'm not concerned at all with the politics of any of it. I don't care who the starting quarterback was in the past, I don't care who was the highest-rated guy is, I don't care who has the highest ceiling," Dykes said. "I don't care about any of that, I care about who gives us the best chance to win." There many factors Dykes will consider in that regard like ball security and decision-making.

However, the most important might be confidence. "Tom Brady is Tom Brady because he can walk in the huddle and everybody in the huddle believes this guy is going to figure out a way to help us to win this ball game. That's what you're looking for, a guy that commands everybody's respect. Somebody that everybody believes in," Dykes said. Whoever emerges as the winner will be in the line to be the latest quarterback to thrive under Dykes. His track record is well known as he coached No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff and fellow NFL quarterback Davis Webb at California. - Fort Worth Star

2022 PRESEASON RAY GUY WATCHLIST: Jordy Sandy - TCU,...Another graduate of the ProKick program in Australia, Sandy (6-3, 216) was an All-Big 12 selection in 2020. His career-high 43.3-yard average last season was the best by a Horned Frog since Ethan Perry's 44.5 mark in 2012. Thirteen of Sandy's 43 punts went inside the 20, including six inside the 10, with just three touchbacks. Opponents were held to 10 punt return yards on the season. He averaged 50.4 yards on five punts in the 34-32 win over Cal. Included in that effort was a 64-yard punt, TCU's longest since 2014. He also had a 62-yard punt downed at the 1-yard line versus Texas, one of his eight punts of at least 50 yards on the year. His love for the game originated in his hometown of Victoria, Australia, where he played Australian rules football, similar to rugby. He was trained for American football punting in Australia's ProKick program, rated No. 1 in the country and was offered a scholarship by TCU. - TCU Football

Gophers receiver Dylan Wright has done the offseason work to build on his 18-reception, 365-yard, two-touchdown season in 2021, Fleck shared. "I've watched him work," Fleck said. "I've known he's done all the un-required stuff to do it...He's embracing the process of growth." During one spring practice, Wright made an incredible catch that fired up Fleck and confused Wright, thinking his head coach might be mad at him. "I was talking very firmly about how good he can be and why doesn't this happen all the time," Fleck said. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound Texas A&M transfer is "one of the most pure, athletic guys I've coached at that position," said Fleck, who has had elite receivers Rashod Bateman, Corey Davis and Tyler Johnson under his wing. - Pioneer Press
