I assume that he realized or was told after the fourth day of fall practice that he wasn’t going to be the starting quarterback. At this point he can just leave.
Not really. He is kind of like Dobbs with the long strides that make him look pretty fast but in reality he runs about a 4.7 40 which is not terrible but also not Lamar Jackson fast.
He's dealt with depression and mental health stuff since he's been here. Pruitt sucked at a lot, but he did care about his guys and tried to do what's best for them. Heupel and company are too, but Maurer's run his course here. It's best for everyone to have an amicable split.
He wants to be a QB, can't blame him for wanting to do it. Just keep the drama down and good luck. Can probably do very well at FCS.
My wife’s uncle was telling me he was the next Peyton Manning back when he committed. I was at their place during Christmas and he showed me where he recorded some of their state title game, and admittedly it was part of one game but I saw a guy throwing a bunch of short passes to D1 receivers
