UMass Football News --May 3rd, 2021 The Spring Game part I

 Kyle Grabowski of the Hampshire Gazette reports the Spring game was end of a long process for UMass football.

UMass write-up here.

I went to the game and will give my 2 cents about game over the coming week .

Starting with the quarterbacks. Click on an image and Blogger displays a larger view.

Tyler Lytle

Lytle went 5-10 and 77 yards. He looks like the player to beat in the QB battle. I thought he looked like he was thinking a little during play. That's to be expected as he is still learning the offense. 

Garrett Durzo

Druzo looked most comfortable with the offense. He only went 3-9 in passing but I think he is clearly the #2 guy in the quarterback room right now.

Zamir Wise.

 Wise went 2-7 passing and bounced a couple of his attempts. Right now, I think his legs are ahead of the rest of his game. He could be effective as a wildcat QB. He just needs more reps at his position.

Luke McMenamin DNP unless I missed it.

Freshman recruit Brady Olsen should be in this summer and will add more depth to an improving group of quarterbacks.

Be of good cheer UMass fans. With 90 players in Spring ball and the 2021 recruits coming in, we actually have a football team.
