Career (3 sport) Coaching Record: 50-3
the Future coach of the Depaul Blue Demons -
Eric is one tough SOB. I have a lot of respect for him. Although I would have liked to see him not run the ball so much himself yesterday...that really made me nervous!EVER LOYAL. -
UNI has had a lot of great quarterbacks the last 20 years. But, when the game is on the line and we need a play made I don't think any of the others measure up to Sanders.Comment

What are the thoughts on Sanders makeing it to the pros ??Feel the Power of Purple !!!!!!Comment

I think Eric's football career ends in Chattanooga...Comment
-
NFL, probably not.
Arena or Canada or something, maybe.
though I'd certainly like to be pleasantly surprised.Comment

Sanders is good, but basically, if he was NFL material you wouldn't need to ask this question. He is consistent, but never really seems to play lights out. Luke Drone out of Illinois State is perhaps an NFL prospect. While he will have some pretty bad games occasionally, I have seen him have games where he did look like an NFL QB.
Just my opinion. I'm not an NFL scout.Comment

Luther.........I really get a kick out of you when you voice opinions like this. Sanders is a better QB than Drone by a long shot. What do you consider "lights out"? Sanders really doesn't have a poor game..........he's consistently "good"........
Drone can't produce unless he has a cast of characters to bail him out. Drone won't be in the NFL either. It's obvious you are not a scout!!!!Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.

I would LOVE to see Eric come to Canada!!!! He should fit into our game VERY well.
My only problem is that BC is already "long" in the QB position, even though we have had our 3rd QB in because of major injuries to No. 1 and No. 2. How I would LOVE it if Eric came to BC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Last edited by CanuckPanther; 10-14-2007, 09:59 PM.Comment

oldcat - I think you are judging Drone based upon his games against UNI only. Just because UNI beats Illinois State does not translate into Sanders being better. Just who was the UNI QB we watched beat Tony Romo a few years back?Luther.........I really get a kick out of you when you voice opinions like this. Sanders is a better QB than Drone by a long shot.

I have actually watched Drone play several times (on TV) and have been impressed. Maybe he won't be in the NFL...I was not making a guarantee that he would make it...just that he was a prospect.
As for Sanders being better by a long shot...can you refresh my memory...who was the Gateway first team QB last year? Maybe Sanders is better, but NOT by a long shot.Comment

Let's see if Drone is first team this year now that he doesn't have the unbelievable supporting cast that he had last year. Having someone like Robinson makes a QB look darn good. All I know is Eric is better than Drone at winning and that's all that really matters.Originally posted by Luther_Heggs View Post
Also, why so much love for ISU's QB? Do you have a connection with this guy?Comment

Luther...........................I'll refresh it for you. Drone was first team because of his team. Sanders is better by a LONG shot!!!! I've watched Drone on TV and he's never been NFL material. Let's see where he falls this year (first team..........I don't think so) with his little birdies not doing so well. Hill from SIU has looked better than Drone, and I don't think he's NFL material, either!
What's the point? You predicted Romo was NFL material? I never heard that discussion. Did I say our QB was better then? I don't remember that discussion, either! This has nothing to do with what we were talking about.Just who was the UNI QB we watched beat Tony Romo a few years back?Last edited by oldcat; 10-15-2007, 06:28 AM.Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.
