- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- After becoming the starter for NC State, MJ Morris played well and become a good quarterback, but then he quit. After playing in four games, he deciced to opt out for the remainder of the season, quit on his team and play for next year. This is all despite NC State being good, having ACC title hopes and him going 3-1 as a starter. Today, I want to talk about who MJ Morris is, why this decision is puzzling and how it could backfire in the future, enjoy!

Surprise players from the MAC this year.
Bowl projections
Can Army make a bowl game?
I know I’ve already asked but I’ll keep saying it, UNLV turnaround! From 3-9 to now 8-2
Bro look at Schrader look at what he has done today. Do a profile on this dude. He came from a d2 school I believe not sure though but man he is ballin today! The dude played at Truman St. Wherever that is.
As long as he plays in the ncaa, he should only be loyal to his best interest (like the ncaa does)
Yeah screw the fans that pay their hard money every weekend they just peasants.
It's hard to know what his plans for the future are as only he knows. NC State websites say he plans on staying with the Wolfpack. Then a Notre Dame website claims he plans on transferring to the Irish. Whatever the decision is, its a bit surprising if not even his head coach knew he planned on redshirting. I've never used the word "plan" so often in a few sentences.
his dad came out and said he’s staying. it’s possible that he believes he won’t be ready to go pro in 2 years. still sucks for us but armstrong will do just fine. the offense was only marginally better with MJ
I think Armstrong proved his worth against wake forest Saturday, i feel like morris wanted to redshirt but didn’t want stop starting until he felt like he could leave with state in a good place i feel like they were with armstrong and it helped when we played wake
honestly armstrong did much better than mj
@@cr7neymar908 i think the time morris was in game armstrong was learning it was a good break and he came back and on a 5 game win streak
That boy gone
For a counterpoint, we at LSU had a similar thing happen with our current backup Garrett Nussmeier. Top 100 overall player that would have burned his redshirt if he started the bowl game, but his family came to the decision not to. Our starting QB had quit on the team after the regular season and so without Nuss, we only had a WR to play QB. Next year will be that kid's fourth year and he has taken to the backup role with no problem and will be the starter as a redshirt junior.
These kids are rare and I think this kid for NCST might be the same.
This kid will be fine.
"We"
@@TheBullyDisciple yes "WE". Alum, TAF member, and NIL supporter.
@ghostwalker89 congrats, u want a cookie? Still not apart of the team. But go crazy lil guy
@TheBullyDisciple in what did I say make it sound like I was gloating? I said maybe he is the same, but obviously he wants to leave. Big deal.
@TheBullyDisciple definitely we though. Because without "US" there are no athletics. Get it right dumbo.
as a state fan it’s not that deep man. he came into this year expecting to be the backup and redshirt, despite what he said to the media. he’s doing what he and his family think is best for him. for all we know his teammates support his decision .
Cope 🤣🤣🤣
Would be interested to see how you feel about the collapse of the ASU program.
I was born and raised in tempe so it sucks to see it happen, but in most of the die hard fans opinion the writing has been on the wall for a while lol
When they get a better nil situation they will get a better team situation
well NC State loved him so much that they went into the portal, got Armstrong and immediately named him the starter so who really quit on who?
It’s a cutthroat world, these programs don’t give AF about you. I’m all about betting on yourself.
Coaches quit on their teams in the middle of the season to pick up another job all the time and still have the locker room, and they make MILLIONS. If people can’t understand why a player would do the same, that’s on them.
Name one. Not before bowl game but middle of season. Name one.
Steve Spurrier yeah sure ask the gamecocks that
@@cbcoolbreezeLincoln Riley at OU a few years ago.
Except he lost the little locker room.
@@cbcoolbreezeBobby Petrino and Nick Saban you clown 🤡
@@w4tt58that wasn’t in the middle of the season
I think state will be fine we have Armstrong now. Cedrick and lex are going to be key pieces for the future . Possibly bring in a transfer next year
Its not about the coaches. Its about the players and the respect for each other
If you watch the games you realize that mj and brennan struggled early because of bad recievers, up until the miami game, where mj still struggled. Brennan is also a leader to the team even when he isn't the starter. All this to say, mj was leaving the team in pretty good hands. I know I have the benefit of hindsight, but even when the news dropped I was more worried about him leaving then I was about us losing the next three games. When this video was dropped, the two qbs had nearly identical stat lines, mj probably just wanted more time to develop. Hopefully he wanted two years with incoming four star recievers Paylor and Anderson
He has to do what’s best for him. NCAA has a over a dozen employees making in excess of $500K per year. Next man up.
You forgot Philip Rivers on the NC State QB list
You never know what was said/done behind the scenes. Plus he is 20 years old - perhaps there is more to the story.
D’Eriq King at Houston did this in 2019. He was never the same player after that. Good thing he’s doing good in the XFL
That was a situation where he was either directed to do that by his head coach or at the very least had the buy-in of the program. This is different, in that it really seems like Morris does not have that.
"star QB" is a wild way to categorize how we feel about MJ
the team did bring in an outside quarterback while he was starting and started that quarterback over him. so the front office quit on him (one of the highest recruit they ever got)..
also maybe the coaches aren't good because he's not improving but looking less than average
56th best recruit they’ve ever gotten FTFY
Is he not getting any better because he’s NOT accepting the coaching? Does he think his HS way is better? We don’t know. The coaches see him in practice, film sessions, and the locker room. They see what we don’t. All we see is his actions…he quit on the team.
highest recruit we ever got LMFAOOO far from it buddy
If your a true baller, you don’t just quit in middle of season and watch your team play the rest of season. I’d want nothing to do with a person like that. Def is in this only for himself and could care less about the teammates that are giving their all.
Your only young once and I’d give my pinky to play one more competitive game!
Morris has been poached by another program. He'll likely will enter the portal as soon as the season ends, and arrive at a place where a coach has a spot just for him and an NIL paycheck waiting for him. I don't see any reason he would warrant that attention, but I can't understand most of what these "young and brilliant" head coaches are doing.
Crazy decision
The problem is some of these kids let it go to their heads oh you are so good you are a star and they end up making bad decisions and this is one of them and I bet his dad is in his ear and dad is looking for a big pay day from the NFL but if they are smart why give him a chance he quit he didn't think about the team he was selfish it was about him.
Bad take on this, way different situation. Leary went down last year, and as a true freshman, he came in had flashes of brilliance, with freshman dumbassery. It happens, he'd grow out of it. They then bring in a QB that was horrible and not even close to being as talented as Morris. morris then had to restake his rightful position. To me it looks like a coach that doesn't believe in him, not he quit on his team, why would you play for a coach that doesn't believe in you when you can just go to team to a coach that wants you there?
First we don't know exactly what the coach was thinking and another thing football is a team sport not a me sport.
Ironically, jalon daniels is currently rumored to be doing something similar and transferring if leipold takes another job.
You dont do this ever. Some might let you in if you are a beast. This kid is done
As a unc fan that lives in chnc i feel so bad😂
MJ Morris is taking a big risk because NC State may find a better quarterback. MJ has potential but they could easily get a transfer with better numbers.
which we did lol, acc championship or bust next year. we also have the 5th ranked transfer class
@scottfishercfb you make a ton of quality videos in such a short span you’ve earned a new sub
Yeah he quit but so did every other player that has ever opped out before a bowl game so you can’t come down on him and call him a quitter unless you call everybody that has ever opped out a quitter but this sounds like dad trying to be the smartest agent in the room
I wish I could just play football but I gotta be a walk on now
Coming from his High School QB Coach and Mentor this Video is all wrong. He played at Pace his Junior Year but came back to Carrollton his senior year. When it comes to the NC State situation you need to see the obvious. Armstrong was brought in and paid over 300k. Mj is not getting anything close to that. NC state already lost 2 games before he got the start putting them out of the ACC championship or National Championship. He was lied to before the season saying he was the guy then they brought the other guy in. They also didn’t let him redshirt his freshman year as well. MJ beat him out and spring and they still went with the other guy. He didn’t Quit. He made a business decision. He plans on staying at NC State. But this video is so wrong. I can tell who made this video didn’t play football and knows nothing about it.
Sometimes a kid can have too many options.
NC State quit on him playing in the transfer portal.
Loyalty goes both ways.
L take.
Bobby petrino somewhere watching this laughing
Ni e on the hook bro
Okay this video was going on too long basically what it is the organization quit on him because when he first got there he had to back up his freshman year and they needed him to win games cool now his sophomore year you bringing another quarterback from the transfer portal up and put him in front of this guy so now he's in the back of State again he feels as though he never truly get his opportunity he always coming up doing mop up Duty so yeah he's pissed
The corner from the Buffalo bills quit on his team, this guy is lloking out for his athletic future, cant blame em
Character and innate competitiveness count, and me-first players seldom achieve lasting glory in a team sport like CFB. It remains to be seen what kind of QB and team mate this guy eventually turns out to be. But benching yourself at mid-season, and thereby seriously compromising your team for totally selfish reasons, is a very bad look. Also, taking yourself out of position to gain some experience and exposure so early in his career is straight-up idiotic. Half a season does not a super star make. The only things his actions to date prove is that he is not concerned with team goals and is too impatient and immature to be trusted to keep a commitment. I suspect that this young man may be getting some less than sage advice from someone with dollar signs in their eyes. It's a sad situation, one way or the other. I'll be pulling for NC State to overcome this garbage move and to finish the season strong - just out of general principle.
Na as the quarterback and as a leader you cannot do that and that might cost him
It had to be something going on that he felt he was tired of I guess him and his dad felt like they only put him in the game as mop-up guy and as a backup and he feels as though he's better than that so he decides to red shirt and weigh out his options and other programs he's going to leave the damage is already done and a team is going to give him an opportunity who's really thin at the quarterback position
He was the starter.
Everyone loves you when you're doing stuff for them. But when you try to do something right for yourself, You're the worst person on the earth. Most of the time it comes from losers who've never been in the situation.
I know Myles personally to say he quit on his team is irresponsible as fuck and literally something someone who has no knowledge about what’s going on would say. And to make a video like this about one of the best kids I’ve ever been around and potentially tarnish his name is beyond disrespectful
why didnt you mention philip river when you named those qbs?? hes the best in program history
Since when can you redshirt when you played a game let alone 4?
The NCAA passed a new rule a few years ago that as long as you don't play more than 4 games you don't burn your redshirt.
I heard he tore his ACL but that may have been rumors
I feel like this is not a ridiculous thing to do. He’s probably not gonna make the league so he put himself first to maximize his time as a college qb.
After watching MJ Morris for most of the games he’s played, bro does NOT need to redshirt, he is mid grade at best and probably won’t draw any eyes in the draft
What if He's redshirting to develop tho
@@jonathanbennett3691 that aged well
This is a terrible look. Too bad he was looking pretty solid too
That kind of "I won't do this cuz it's not best for ME personally"... that BURNS you with a team. You SCREAM "I ALONE are the person that matters"... and that destroys any sense of unity and trust from teammates.
Who the hell will follow his lead when his leadership is "SCREW YOU, it's ALL about me!" ?!
Am I being too critical of this situation? What do you think? (Either way I hope the best for MJ Morris)
No absolutely not he quit on his team
It's his life and not ours it's a sad situation but I don't know where he comes from or any of the behind the scenes I see athletes be exploited and used and then thrown to the curve so it's money and that's it it's a money decision he's a young black athlete with the weight of the world on his shoulders
He's saving himself for the NFL.
He’s getting another year of NIL. Dude won’t be in the NFL.
@@billybobthornton5144 He thinks he will.
So if player does it he is a bad person, but if coach does it then it's a good idea. I bet you could make qbs who were offered scholarships but dropped from teams( because coaches ego), look like it was their idea.
No one’s gonna pick this kid up, maybe the Canadian league.. or the XFL
NIL Money talks, BS walks! And despite the lip service, he’s probably leaving!
Do players really care? They're just trying to win and trying to get their bag too. Can he just buy them some goods with the extra NIL and call it a day?
NC State guy here. The plan was for him to redshirt to begin with. But Armstrong sucked ass so we started MJ for a few games. We are bowl eligible (what we seek each year at NC State, cuz why would you want the hassle of winning a conference title) so he’s sitting. I don’t get it either.
Wolfpack fan here too. Armstrong's stats and what he brings are arguably better than Morris (better completion %, and much better rushing yards). Morris was only played to bring a "spark" to the offense, as Head Coach Doeren said. And yes, while NC State fans are frustrated at not winning a conference title in a long time, we are NOT content with just making bowl games.
@@northwolf my nephew is a student at State and knows some o-line guys. They’ve all said Armstrong is an asshole. And the bowl comment is my facetiousness. I’m not saying we need to be Clemson or FSU, but even a blind squirrel finds a nut a every once in a while, right?
I wish he quit couple weeks ago before they beat Clemson
impossible to say but i assume this will screw him in the long run
I went to a NC state game last year an hid parents sat behind us
Blame the football culture in general.. Divisions in the pros don't matter neither do rivalries in college..
Never heard of him.... wonder why
It’s a business move jimbo got fired but still will get 70+ mil
Bit of a stupid take. Obviously somebody will take MJ Morris if ge enters the transfer portal. They won't give a fuck about him "quit in his team" he will have options elsewhere. Idk understand why fabs line you will shit in players for doing what they believe is in their best interest but are ok with the NCAA using these players. Let them do what they want its their career they should gave control of it.
Take a hike kid. NC State HC needs to pull his shit and make sure his name is spelled right in the portal
Wisconsin could use him
I agree with you 100 percent. It seems like every week somebody decides to break from the norm and do something that, in the past, might make people question their character. I thought that not playing in a bowl game at the end of the year and let down your teammates was wrong. But now that’s not even questioned. I get that the player is afraid of injury before the draft but how far do we go on the slippery slope? What’s next? Only playing in games against easy teams so I can pad my states and probably not get injured? I’m thinking that maybe he’s met with a head coach from a school that wants him to transfer and so they won’t question his character because of a back room NIL and transfer deal. This smells like SEC shenanigans. Lane Kiffin confess!! Lol
On paper, I think its a good decision for him and it makes sense. Afterall, NC State fumbled his redshirt opportunity last season when he played in 5 games, two of which he only threw the ball twice. Now this season, he sits all year, thinking he will be able to utilize his redshirt, only for plans to change midseason. He would have wasted 2 years of eligibility for not even a full season's worth of play. So, I can see why he wants to preserve his eligibility. His stats are nowhere near comprable to other NFL ready guys. So he still has plenty of work to do.
Nonetheless, its a bad team move and if I was his teammate, he would lose my respect. So while he may genuinely want to come back, I think he might get some pushback in his own lockerroom for thinking of himself over the team.
Dude…. Once the NIL and portal was out there was going to all kinds 💩 similar to what this dude is doing.
And just wait when more of the parents and athletes figure out even more ways to milk the system…it’ll probably make what this guy is doing now look mild 🤷🏽♂️
Once the big money schools/conferences figured out ways to cut out the conferences that weren’t a part of the so called “prestigious” conferences (**like forming the Group of Five/Power 5), is when I started to slowly lose interest in watching.
And I was one dude that loved college football way more than I liked the NFL since my days of playing. The Power 5 finally figured a way to make sure thee billion dollar pie was going to be shared with less other schools which in turn would mean the P5 schools get a waaaaay more monster cut of said pie ….because, you know…they all need the millions more than the other barely making schools in the Group of 5🙄🙄🙄🤣😂
Really don’t blame him for red shirting… I guess like naw y’all brought in b Armstrong let him finish the season
2:22 whats a true freshmen in highschool
Welcome to reality. Especially now with the portal, the players have no loyalty to anyone but themselves. They are mercenaries. And SOMEBODY will take him if he decides to leave. It may not be Alabama or Ohio State but there are dozens of teams with years of mediocre or just bad records and no serviceable quarterback ( Hello Nebraska) who would take a chance on a 4 star recruit.
I might just be petty and spiteful, but I'm all for quitting on your team in the middle of the season if they quit on you in the beginning of the season
As for a reason behind why he might be doing it two things come to mind one betting on potential which is not really that bad of a plan. Someone like Zach Wilson, for example got selected number two overall purely off of potential. Two a lack of confidence in his performances to come at the end of the season. Sure, sitting out may hurt his reputation but having an average to poor outing in the last couple of games can hurt it even more so I'm guessing he's seeing it as a net neutral
One of the weakest moves in CFB history
Scott please take it easy on him I understand everything your feeling on this subject it's just I think it's more we don't know and won't know till the future keep working hard
He has limited time to maximize himself and his money.
His coaches would toss him away for any person they deem “better”.
This kid doesn't sound too bright
If I’m the coach I explore all options to get this toxic personality off the team.
Maybe he is trying to leave NC State. This sounds 🐟 asf. Personally, if I was starting and winning, I am trying to continue to be competitive asf.
You sound a lil salty bro even if dude ain’t that good it’s his life
Someone said that he is hurt
Just follow the money
Trashing a kid who made the best decision for him shows your character. Time to grow up. This also doesn't help with future recruiting. It also seems you are rooting for this decision to back fire on him. You need help.
he goes to nc state due to 4 qb that played I'n the NFL. 3 of them was trash pro's and 1 won a Superbowl which was Russell Wilson. Nebraska should had never been on his list of 3.
bro mj is mid as hell
Dude plays at NC state. Don't blame him.
Yeah, guess who else played QB at NC State? Philip Rivers, Russell Wilson, and Jacoby Brissett.
Zay Flowers was offered $500,000 to leave Boston College to play for another school for his senior year, he stayed loyal to BC and now he's the top wide receiver to the Baltimore Ravens.
You’re so wrong and you’re spreading this bs narrative. Real college football insiders with real connections like Bud Elliot have said he was likely to redshirt this season to begin with. There’s a rule where you can play 4 games and maintain your redshirt status. Get it right or don’t post it at all
Jesus is King!
Caleb Williams should shut it down for the season and prepare for the draft. I predict if he plays tonight against Oregon he will get injured.
What?! Lol
This is sure lame shit to say
I wouldn't honor his scholarship if i could. NIL sucks
Charlie Brewer former Baylor quit after game 1 against byu as the Utah Utes Quarterback so he wins HAHAHAHAHA!
Outrageous title
Is it at all inaccurate?
@@ScottFisherCFByeah wtf would you call it then if not quitting?!?!
@@ScottFisherCFB he didnt quit hes redshirting and it was coaching staffs decision
He wouldn’t be my quarterback next year
You definitely never played ball
you call him a STAR QUARTERBACK in a capital letters and then proceed to talk about how his stats are not great and he doesn't even have a for sure shot to win the starting gig next season at NC State. Sorry but thats not a "STAR QUARTERBACK" its just clickbait. And you mention his weak mind-set so once again how the hell is he a "STAR QUARTERBACK"???
What do you expect from Gen Z not surprising at all
His career is over with both amateur but also with the pros!
This video starts off on a false premise...he's not a star. That's why his redshirt matters.
