They signed two QBs yesterday and have two currently on the roster. Will be interesting to see how his decision turns out.

Starting running back. Never mind that he probably should have been.
Korn was probably the most heavily hyped player ever. Everyone knew his name, yet he accomplished essentially nothing (as a player) here in 3 years.
A really strange situation. You have to wonder if things would have been different if he had not gotten that injury. Would he have won the starting job over Parker, or would he still end up leaving because he is the backup?

platoons at every school. you have to, its the nature of the position. QB is completely different!
Korn can still play and maybe pursue his pro dreams. He should leave. It's not his fault he got hurt nor mismanaged by TB & Spence. Parker is young and the starter. Boyd is younger and impressive. Most coaches would use Boyd as 2nd string in this situation, making Korn the odd man out.
He had some bad luck, but he loves Clemson and will be an Alum. I wish him nothing but the best!

What people forget about the whole Korn versus Parker thing
Feb 4, 2010, 11:21 AM

is that Kyle Parker himself was one of the top 10 quarterback recruits in the country as a three to four star player. Parker didn't steal Willy's job. Both were excellent quarterbacks coming in. Willy's downfall was the injury bug plus faulty mechanics and shattered confidence from the Bowden/Spence system.

Thanks # 3! I will always remember your passion to be a Tiger. Also, none of us should ever forget how even as a HS Junior he was helping Bowden and our staff recruit. I hope all of his dreams come true. DREAM BIG! GO TIGERS! (and HERD!)

Wish he wouldn't go, but hope he starts. Looks dicey.

I'm surprised that Willy didn't choose a school that is in greater need of a QB. I'd guess that unless Willy clearly outshines one of the many Marshall QBs with more eligibility, Marshall will start a guy with more eligibility since there would be a greater return on investment.
I hope Willy starts at Marshall and then in the NFL.
